occupation

Only the Occupation cannot tell the difference between occupation and resistance. I am astonished by Arabs who support Israel against Hamas. I am astonished by those who think the number of terrorists is too small, and so decide to add Hamas to them.
The struggle in Palestine, call it an intifada, an uprising or anything else appropriate, hurts Israel and her plans in many ways, and it should be expected to continue, given the continuation of settlement and appropriation of Jerusalem.
Lately, Israeli officials have been reiterating the demand that the Palestinian National Authority recognise Israel as a Jewish state or as a state for the Jewish people. This is a significant notch up from the Israeli demand in the pre-Oslo period that the PLO "recognise Israel and renounce terrorism" as a precondition for talks.
