Even More Peace Talk
The words "Israel" and "Peace" are both being used in the same headline at an ever increasing frequency.
I just did a post earlier today about it and now I found another article on Yahoo News.
Is it time for Israel to talk peace within the region?
With the shared regional threat of the Islamic State and a nuclear Iran, some top Israeli security officials say now's the time for peace talks with Israel's moderate neighbors. (Dennis here....can someone please list who Israel's moderate neighbors are?)
In Israeli politics, “the peace camp” has become virtually irrelevant, scoffed at as naive about Palestinian intentions and the security threats facing Israel. (Dennis here again....I say good! The PLO just spent all their money on building tunnels lined with cement for their plan to destroy Israel...you can't make peace with Arabs who don't want peace.)
But it would be hard to accuse Yaakov Peri of either. He’s fluent in Arabic and served as director of the Shin Bet, Israel’s FBI, during the volatile days of the first Palestinian intifada, or uprising. For a time, he met weekly in the wee hours with Yasser Arafat, the Palestinian militant-turned-president.
Mr. Peri, a minister in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s outgoing government, is part of a growing chorus of prominent Israelis who have called on the government to initiate regional peace talks. The moment is ripe, they have argued. The shared threat of a nuclear Iran and militant groups like Islamic State opens the way for alliances with states such as Egypt, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia.
“The current reality presents ... a new political opportunity of incomparable importance,” Peri said at a recent briefing, though the subsequent announcement of new elections in March will likely distract Israeli leaders until then.
Peri is not alone in his views. In November, 103 former military generals, police commissioners, and spy chiefs called on Mr. Netanyahu to initiate peace talks with moderate Arab countries.
“I think Israel wants to find a shortcut in order to enjoy normalization without ending occupation,” says Xavier Abu Eid, an adviser with the Palestine Liberation Organization’s Negotiations Affairs Department. “That’s not something we’re going to accept, and that’s not something the Arab world is going to accept.”
In late November, the Arab League moved to submit a resolution to the United Nations Security Council calling to end the Israeli occupation and create a Palestinian state within a concrete time frame.
But even as Palestinians seek international backing, many Israelis and Arabs see Israel as the one that needs to take the initiative.
“We need to normalize the region and the only ones who can do that are the Israelis,” says former Jordanian Foreign Minister Kamel Abu Jaber, who also sees great potential for Israel to help reorient the Middle East’s resources from strife to development. “I dream that one day we can reconcile these two scions of the Semitic race.”

Yes! We all dream of that day Mr. Abu Jaber! The problem is that it's never going to happen as long as the majority of you Arabs are worshiping a demonic, moon-god named Allah....and swearing allegiance to his demon-possessed pedophile messenger, Muhammad.
Face it. The vast majority of Muslims simply don't like Jews. Many of them would claim to hate Jews. So with their bogus book, the Koran, telling them to kill Jews because they are apes and pigs...how much hope for peace can Israel really have? Yes...some liberal Jews might think they can negotiate for peace but it simply can't happen with Islam surrounding them on all sides.
Also remember, just like America has lots of liberal idiots who think they know what's best for the USA when in reality their ideas would make things worse....Israel also has a lot of liberal idiots who believe that if they keep giving away free stuff to Muslims who hate them...that one day the Muslims will love them.
