Andrew Breitbart’s Big Peace<\/a> website posted an article today about the upcoming peace talks between the Israelis and Palestinians.  The article points out that Palestinian President Abbas is refusing to have face-to-face talks with Israel unless the talks are based on the idea of Israel returning to its pre-1967 borders.  The first thing to remember here is that if the pre-1967 borders did not bring peace in 1967, why should we assume that they will bring peace now?<\/p>\n

The article brings out one very important point:<\/p>\n

\n

“That “green line” running through the West Bank is the 1949 Armistice Line. The armistice line was created solely because that’s Israeli and Arab forces stopped fighting at the end of the War of Independence (with some added adjustments in certain sectors).”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The article shows the evolution of the idea of making the 1967 borders permanent.   <\/em>It points out:<\/p>\n

\n

“You also hear politicians and diplomats claim that Israel must withdraw to the pre-1967 borders as called for in UN Security Council <\/em>Resolution 242<\/em><\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n

“Anti-Israel forces changed the meaning of 242 by adding one simple article to the resolution “the.” They claim that 242 calls for Israel to withdraw from “the”<\/strong> territories taken during the Six Day War. The resolution actually says that ‘Israel should withdraw from territories’ taken during the war (no article). Adding the article changes the meaning from withdrawing from some <\/strong>territories to all <\/strong>territories.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The thing to remember here is that the United Nations has never been a friend of Israel.  In recent years the Arab bloc at the UN has become more powerful.  They have worked to put nations with repressive dictators as rulers on the human rights committee and welcomed leaders who were known terrorists.<\/p>\n

Peace between Israel and Palestine will not come until some basic changes are made.  We need to examine the school books of the children in Palestinian schools to see what they are being taught.  Does the message encourage peace or hatred?  We need to look at the children’s television programming that is being broadcast in Palestine.  What does it promote?  You can do this research on your own with a good ‘google’ search.  Until we stop teaching hatred to children, peace will not come to this region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
