Dear
Friend,
About half of the
recent editorials deal with the inability of Arafat and also Sharon to
negotiate a mutually realistic peace agreement, even though a majority
of their people would find such an agreement acceptable. One of the op-eds,
#17 by Agha and Malley, suggests an interesting imposed settlement, and
another, #23, by Abunimah, suggests a joint state. Although not preferable
to most people, under the current deadly impasse, these options must be
seriously considered.
L'shanah tovah. Let
us hope that the new year will bring us closer to a lasting peace.
Sincerely,
Arthur S. Obermayer
