Nahdia makes a good point about the hypocrisy of the Jewish Left. Except for an extreme anti-Zionist minority, it still wants to preserve a Jewish State albeit within the 1948 borders. This is not good enough for her and for her fellow Palestinians. She wants Israel eliminated.
What she writes reveals the essence of the conflict between Israel and the Arabs is not over borders but over the very existence of the Jewish State itself. That is why there will be no peace in our lifetime.
I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004.
