MK to Netanyahu: GOP should nominate YOU for 2012
The Israeli Right has embraced PM Binyamin Netanyahu for the hardline positions he expressed in his Washington visit, and for the masterly control of US politics he has showed. Yossi Verter quotes in Haaretz a funny exchange between the PM and Likud MK Danny Danon, who until recently led the opposition to Netanyahu in his…

Israelis opt to stay blind so as to remain righteous victims
Just as our speeches are old news, we too refuse to change with the times. While the region becomes more democratic, Israelis still cannot accept their share of the responsibility, choosing instead to repeat familiar clichés By Eyal Clyne a) Netanyahu’s speech before Congress: Just a speech, what’s the big deal? Ha’aretz reports that following…

Netanyahu’s speech: Israel is not a good friend to the US
The US has many better friends than Israel Among the many troubling statements in Netanyahu’s speech before the US congress yesterday, it was something that he said at the very outset, which really stood out: Israel has no better friend than America. And America has no better friend than Israel. The first sentence is true.…

Poll: Netanyahu, US congress & AIPAC stand to the right of Israeli public
According to Maariv’s poll, 57 percent of Israelis accept the principles outlined in president Obama’s Middle East speech. By being more pro-Israeli than the Knesset, the US Congress indicates that the road to peace and justice in the region cannot pass through Washington In the morning following Prime Minister Netanyahu’s speech before a joint session…

Zombie threat: Rebuttal of the arguments against 67 borders
A lot of people appear to be concerned about the “indefensibility” of 1967 borders. A lot of people also seem to be worried about the prospect of Zombie apocalypse. Far be it from me to imply that there is any overlap between the two groups. Nonetheless, these two notions have one thing in common: much…

Netanyahu at AIPAC – More popular than the President?

Obama received uneasily at AIPAC, but appeases the crowd
WASHINGTON, D.C. – I have now covered five AIPAC conferences, but this admittedly was the first one where I was worried – genuinely – that the President of the United States would not get the applause that such a forum would naturally dictate. There were reports that the 10,000 delegates attending this year’s AIPAC received…

Bibi-Obama saga: A post-it to American Jewish friends
By Louis Frankenthaler This is not a letter to an American Jewish friend. Rather it is a post-it note. A letter you can stick in a drawer and forget about it. I want you to put this on your refrigerator, on your computer screen, on your bathroom mirror and look at it a lot! It…

What do Israelis think of 1967 borders with swaps?
The raging controversy over President Barack Obama’s speech last week, in which he explicitly called for a Palestinian state to be created based on the 1967 borders, with land swaps, caught me personally by surprise. The notion of a Palestinian state has always essentially been conceptualized around the 1967 occupied territories, and the peace negotiations…

How to handle Netanyahu and why he has my vote
As we brace ourselves for the three-pronged attack on sensible approaches to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict (Netanyahu at AIPAC – Obama at AIPAC – Netanyahu at Congress), three notes regarding Netanyahu’s visit so far: 1. Every prime minister on a similar visit is mindful to balance the gains and losses on the home front and on…

Second thoughts on White House meeting: Netanyahu’s mistake
This morning, I posted an analysis of the latest diplomatic developments, titled “Obama finally confronts Netanyahu, but to what end?” The more I think and read about it, I get the feeling that I got at least some of the story wrong. Looking back on the events of the last couple of days, I don’t…
