Peace can be achieved in Middle East
Perhaps by now the people in the Arab countries might be starting to realize that it is their leaders and not Israel who have been their enemies all these many years. Their leaders fomented hatred and fear of Israel to distract their people from the misery caused by their corrupt, despotic rule. These same leaders are now only too ready to slaughter their own citizens in order to stay in power.
Israel has never been the enemy of the Arab people. Given the real chance to make peace, peace could be achieved. It certainly can’t be achieved by trying to reach agreements with despots.
