5.0 out of 5 stars Prescription for Conflict, April 26, 2007

By	cortezhill (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

"Washington is the decision-making center, but it is in the U.S., where decisions are often influenced by public pressure, that the public is least informed and often misinformed by propaganda lobbies who, milking fears and mistrust, stir passions with half-truths and distorted images. The deep commitment of the American Jewish community to Israel's security is not accompanied by sufficient knowledge of the situation in Israel. The leaders of the Jewish community are 'conditioned' to support without reservation whatever the Israeli government proscribes as necessary for 'survival'. They disregard the fact that a growing number of Israelis criticize the use of 'security and survival' arguments for policies motivated by narrow-minded, nationalistic, and expansionist aims. While open debate and pluralism are characteristic of Israeli political life, the organized Jewish community in the U.S. has reduced itself to the role of a rubber stamp for one political school in Israel, represented by an unstable and failing government coalition. This is best demonstrated by the American-Jewish attitude over the Palestine problem - the most crucial issue in the Israeli-Arab conflict. The prejudice of American Jewry has become the major obstacle to an American-Palestinian and Israeli-Palestinian dialogue, without which there is little chance to move forward in the difficult and involved peace process."
