Dare To Inquire: The 'Disengagement'    
 The 'Disengagement'0 comments

Many years ago, Mordecai Nisan talked about what could be called the irony law of Mideast peace:
"The more talk there is about peace, the more sure one can be that war is approaching."

I wish I could say otherwise, but I am coming to the conclusion that another disastrous round of war is being prepared by the inexorable pressure on Israel by Bush's administration and the capitulation to it by the Israeli government of so-called 'tough-guy' Ariel Sharon.

I believe that these men are recklessly endangering Israel, whatever their noble statements of intention. Since the Arab nation has not given up its basic opposition to the existence of Israel, no concessions (and certainly not a Palestinian Arab state) will lead to the kind of peace that so many Israelis want. Instead, it looks to me like disengagement will lead to more war and perhaps the worst danger to Israel's existence that it has ever faced.
