  • I applaud the author's courageous statement in this article, aware that he is currently in a minority in Israel. But his voice might well help find the tipping point for positive action. I hope so! I appreciate his addressing of the moral corruption that now exists with the facts on the ground, as it is so often referred to politically with Israel/Palestine. The conditions are unrealistic for partitioning in any humane form. I support his humane solution: shared sovereignty. The question is, Where is the Israeli DeKlerk to handle this challenging leadership, or will it take the Belfast Peace Agreement brokers, Bill Clinton and Tony Blair? Will the real leaders come forth, please!
