Peace Settlers has returned!

After a long period of relative silence and inactivity, it is time to return to proactivity. This is not, alas, the result of a new opportunity for peace but rather because it appears that yet again, the stage is being set for further and GREATER disappointment. it is precisely these dashed hopes after great expectations that se the stage for negative dynamics to take over.
WHY?
Because the real, bottom line issues are not being addressed. Because the real points of agreement are not being utilized to bring people together. Therefore, the process is yet again doomed to failure.

The Israeli - Arab/Palestinian problem is comprised of two main factors:
Political (nationalistic) requirements
Personal (civic) requirements

The axiom we must deal with is that there is no acceptable political solution to the Israeli-Arab/Palestinian problem. PERIOD!

Once this is fully understood and assimilated, progress can be made on the requirement which has much more real bearing on a persons life and future: the civic rights of all people in the region.

In other words: the only possible solution requires the DE-POLITIZATION of the conflict.

Since all of the initiatives up till and including the present one require a focused POLITICIZED arrangement, they are doomed from the start to failure.

There is no Palestinian leader who will be able to accept what is real will be ale to offer. Ergo no end to conflict can be achieved, ergo extremist elements will continue to prosper and make any option of radical Israeli concessions impossible.

I will end this post with the hope that the Almighty makes his will known to the world that it be accepted and acted upon and that peace will finally be part of our lives in this world in our lifetime.

My hand is extended to those who seek peace. Let’s work together to bring it.
