Choice excerpts · ‘Economic Peace’ as a holding line for the status quo: The economic argument is so powerful that it will allow you to talk about the delay in implementing a political solution without losing public support – as long as you raise the two components at the same time. (Page 25.) · Settlement evacuation is ethnic cleansing: If we are to have real peace, then Israelis and Palestinians will have to live side by side. The idea that anywhere that yo u have Palestinians there can't be any Jews, that some areas have to be Jew-free, is a racist idea. We don't say that we have to cleanse out Arabs from Israel. They are citizens of Israel. they enjoy equal rights. We cannot see why it is that peace requires that any Palestinian area would require a kind of ethnic cleansing to remove all Jews. We don't accept it. Cleansing by either side against either side is unacceptable. (Page 62.) This is interesting disinformation: the issue is not about Jews living in Palestine but about whose government should rule it.
