Give Peace a Chance?

February 21, 2014 by Daniel Gordis from danielgordis.org

NOTE: This is a great piece, I strongly urge you to read it and enjoy it! Here's a few clips:

Have you read or even heard of a single book by any citizen of those countries (who choose to stay there) who says that the 1947-1949 Arab attack on Israel was a mistake? Have you read or even heard of a single book by one of those people that says that the attempt to destroy the just-born Jewish state was morally wrong? Have you read a single book by a committed Palestinian who says that just as the Palestinians have a right to a state, so too do the Jews, and it’s time for Palestinians to recognize Israel as a Jewish state?
Neither have I.
