| On the 1948 war: "Israel must admit once and for all that the territorial phase of Zionism has ended, dismantle most of the West Bank settlements, and help create a viable Palestinian state as soon as possible. This is Israel`s only chance to seal its 1948 victory - which has been constantly challenged ever since - before the swelling tide of Islamic fundamentalism drowns the existing Arab regimes and dooms the prospects of an enduring Arab-Israeli peace." From "Will Israel Ever Seal the Victory of 1948?", by Shlomo Ben-Ami reviewing Benny Morris latest book, "1948: A History of the First Arab-Israeli War", in Foreign Affairs, September/October 2008. www.foreignaffairs.org/ Shlomo Ben-Ami was Israel`s Foreign Minister in 2000-2001. He is Vice President of the Toledo International Center for Peace, in Spain, and the author of `Scars of War, Wounds of Peace: The Israeli-Arab Tragedy`. |
