Maybe Dr. Oren will use his experience and knowledge to Israel`s good advantage. With all due respect, I wouldn`t give back an inch of land from here on. How many times do you have to get hit in the head before you learn to duck? Where is gaza now, after being handed over to the "peaceful ones?" Do you really want Judea and Samaria to be stocked with rockets also? And Dr. Oren will have to be strong enough to withstand the unrelenting pressure from the know-nothings in the US State Dept and especially the so-called President. The Nobama believes that key to Middle East peace is Israel`s giving back lots of land. It doesn`t matter that it`s never worked-kind of like a drowning man clinging to a deflated inner tube in the belief that it will him afloat.
