I have been remiss in publicizing about a new initiative for bringing peace in the Holy land. I too presented the Peace Settlers Pragmatic peace plan and hope to post the video as soon as I receive it.
The uniqueness of this approach is that it is not political but rather a grassroots initiative started by an Israeli and a Palestinian American. Whatever the outcome, the fact that an ongoing people to people dialogue is happening is good. For a change, I am happy to say, there are many proposals (22 in all!) that were presented by what would be considered "right wing" Israeli's as well.

Places of Worship to G-d must not be desecrated
There have been several cases of desecration of Mosques lately. I want to make the point as clearly as possible - this is a desecration and unacceptable. I do not know who is responsible but there is no support for these heinous actions and I call upon all men of G-d and reason to act to make sure that such actions do not happen. It is a crime and an affront against G-d, humanity and decency.
I sincerely state to all of our brothers of other faiths; We are totally against these actions - do not let them cause hate and dissension. We are the children of Abraham the beloved of G-d.
To any Jews who may have participated in such actions; you are doing a great חילול השם . The burning and destruction of Jewish Holy Places does not justify the wanton destruction of other places of worship.
