I know it`s so easy for a foreigner to speak about dramatic problems among Israel - that is the only actual democratic state in Middle East - and Palestine, Lebanon, Syria. Anyway, my modest opinion is that it`s so important that in Israel ethical opinions like Gideon Levy`s keep resound. Because his voice is one of the freethinkers` and liberals` voices. Only a democratic system gives space to such voices. So, every country everywhere and everytime needs its own Gideon Levy. Without voices like`s Gideon Levy I - a south European catholic citizen - wwouldn`t recognize Israel as I use to do. |
