I have to wonder why Halevy does not address the problem that Palestinians have never been willing to make peace, because the only peace acceptable to them is the elimination of Israel. What leadership does he envision for the Palestinians that would change that?

As usual, always interesting to view comments by CeliaтАФshe gets to the crux of the matter. I fully agree with her that the Israel/Palestine central problem is the unwillingness of the PalestiniansтАФ тАЬleadersтАЭ in controlтАФto make peace. In answer to her question, what leadership would change that I think the answer is those Gazians who have lived under (and suffered from) Hamas. For example, out of the 9,000 plus who prior to this worked in Israel and their families. Out of that тАЬtypeтАЭ of persons, тАЬadvisory councilsтАЭ for administration and governmental services under military rule by Israel moving toward actually performing those duties and further on to eventual governing. Keep the UN, Europeans, other Arab countries, and the US OUT of it (except for money, limited strings). Now doing that is тАЬnot easyтАЭ and not quick. Think about the US regarding Germany and Japan after WWII or South Korea after the Korean war, although the later was relatively quick.
I think it would be very valuable at this point to take a closer look at what was done after WWII to detoxify German and Japanese cultures. I'm realizing the I don't actually know the details.
Interesting that no other countries want the Palestinians in their country. Why? They support Muslim Brotherhood and will try to ferment disorder wherever they go or are. If Israel disappeared tomorrow, it would take less than six months and then Hezbo and Hamas would be fighting the Sunni versus Shia history. Then they would look to overthrow Egypt, Jordan, and any other country that helped them. They appreciate nothing and help is considered weakness and fear of them. The people would still be illiterate and good for only reproducing and having fighters to get killed or wear suicide vests.
These idiots are not capable of establishing any kind of government or infrastructure for the people. Their specialty is only destroying. If only AI could help devise a process to where stupid peoples heads would explode when they support something so stupid as Hamas or Hezbo, we would be free of the woke liberals. Now that would be special and a reason to support AI.
That is such a great point. If you cheer on what happened on 10/7 and support those who did it, you get what you deserve. As much as the press wants to make the country feel sorry for them, I don't. To have peace, like the Japanese and Germans, that culture needs to be broken. I wish an American politician would have the courage to say so as Israel's politicians do. Still, until that happens, the media will do all it can to make the general public feel sorry for those who cheer on barbarism.
I think your point about actually SEEING war on video is important. As the Israel Hamas war continues, I often shake my head and say, тАЬDo people not know what war is anymore?тАЭ Both MSM and the pro-Palestinian lobby appear to expect тАЬwarтАЭ without casualties... and the public seems to be expecting the same thing!
Could this have something to do with тАЬmoviesтАЭ of everything playing on our phones, on our computers, on our TVs? Are we now telling ourselves new stories about how to wage war? But then I realize, no, because itтАЩs all one-sided. Videos of IsraelтАЩs dead and wounded are not treated with the same solicitousness, so I guess weтАЩre just back to the old oppressor/oppressed binary.
After 8 years living abroad, I returned to the US at the end of 1968. For the first itme in 8 yrs., I saw TV. I was eating dinner at my mothers apt., with some of her friends. They were chatting away and on the TV there was the Vietnam war. I was horrified, and they all just kept chatting away as if seeing people slaughtered was a normal occurance.

To be fair Haley did say that but she was roundly criticized for warmingering and neoconning for it.

Just curious, what's your current age?
Just short of 85.
Thanks. It gives some context to your point of view. I wasn't being nosy, just trying to understand better who I am listening to
Fair enough. What does it tell you about me?
That you've seen 19 more years of it than I have. It's usually a good idea to listen to experienced voices
Not always, but, in my case, I am truthful. Whether or my analysis and conclussions are accurate is always a matter for debate.
I also like your comments, but I'm perplexed by your support of socialism...ie Norway? Scandinavia?
In the states we prefer (most of us I hope) equal opportunity over equal outcome.
Most anything the government operates/controls turns into one giant sh*tshow.
Celia, I think your comment deserves to be under one of the other articles' headings. Not under the AI subject matter.
I was responding to the video pasted at the end of this round-up.
