"Let see if Obama is a true friend of Israel ... " (Frank)

Anyone pressuring Israel to stop being the last democratic country
to rule a foreign stateless population,
is a true friend of Israel. Even if he doesn`t know it.

"We must have a Palestinian state in our neighborhood,
or we will become a Palestinian state."
Yehoshafat Harkabi (1921-1994),
head of Israeli Military Intelligence (1955-1959), then professor and
director of the Institute of International Relations and
Middle East Studies, at the Hebrew University, Jerusalem.

"Harkabi was the only commander of military intelligence to have had
a good command of Arabic, in addition to genuinely professional
knowledge of Arab civilization and history, and of Islam."
