Time for Israel to Go on a Narrative Offensive
(Jerusalem Post) Yisrael Medad - Israel's public diplomacy must shift its attention to attack mode. The burden of proof and defense must be placed on the pro-Palestinian side with questions such as: Should a Palestinian national identity of less than 100 years be preferred over a 3,000-year Jewish national identity? Were not the Arab Muslim conquests of the seventh and eighth centuries the real colonization process in the Middle East? Who is truly engaged in an "ethnic cleansing" if not Palestinianism? Who initiated genocidal violence, beginning in 1920? Should not the side that violates agreements be punished? Should a constant rejection of diplomacy and willingness to compromise be tolerated?
