What do the Palestinians mean by taking the Israeli occupation issue to the Security Council? America runs that. And taking it to all international organizations? America runs them all. Palestinians are living in exactly the same way as non-whites in the former Apartheid South Africa. Only the Armed Struggle liberated South Africans, it will be the same with Palestinians.

This article is precise and to the point, illustrating the problem Palestinian have faced the last 60 years and no end insight. Now it is the big powers such Russia and China to help the Palestinians rights through armed struggle and political support. This is not an issue for Region is humanitarian issue. Israel is extremely cruel to the Palestinians and rest of the world is watching in horror and in silence because of American purchasing power and domination of Middle East.

This article presents the leftist point of view which is well known. Apart from that calling Netaniyahu's policies weak is riduculous, and calling Avigdor Lieberman racist is plain dumb. The majority of Israelis agree with their government on issues of settlements and piece. The biggest Israeli leftist party Avoda lost its popularity completely and no longer may be considered a major party, even the centist party Kadima cant get its act together against the present government, so all these talks about creating a centrist coalition comes from the person who has no clue about political realities in Israel. It would be only fair and more professional if RT presented also the opposite opinion on the conservative side, instead of picking up the views of most liberal Jewish commentator out there.

If Israel want's peace they should stop invading, occupying, killing, kidnapping, torturing and bombing. that's the only way. it's quite easy and obvious, they just don't want to see it. if you're pushing, people might start to push back. Is it hard to understand?
