Golan Returning to Normal Life
Apparently consigning the quest for peace with Syria to the next
generation, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak on Thursday lifted temporary building restrictions on the Golan Heights, to the immense relief of local residents.
The Papal Visit 2000 - A Retrospective While the Jewish people worldwide, the nation of Israel, Christians, and Muslims debate the significance of the Pope's Mid-East visit, we give our own assessment herein, offered after examining both the preamble and the aftermath of that visit:
Lebanon and the Armed struggle after Israel's Withdrawal For most of the last quarter of a century, Lebanon has been subject to civil war between its different ethnic groups and used as a battleground for by other powers and their proxies in the region.
The Katzir Rule of the Israeli High Court On the day the High Court of Justice rendered its decision in the Kaadan Case, the sun
shined on a new post-Zionist Israel, irrespective of a majority of Israelis who opt for
a Zionist vocation over democracy whenever the two are placed in conflict.
US Generals' Letter to Capitol Hill - No U.S. Aid to Syria As American defense professionals, we view Middle East peace
negotiations through the prism of American security interests. A secure, durable peace between Israel and Syria is much to be desired, and the United States has a key role to play. But credible reports of proposed
American assistance to Syria should raise grave concerns for Americans.
Editorial: 1492....but what about 1942 ? The world and the media are awash over the Vatican's Papal visit to the Middle East in general, and Israel in particular. In spite of all the facts there is this unreal hope of "land for peace"...Israel's land of course !

In making this journey up to Jerusalem, he fulfills a dream shared by so many others of biblical faith throughout the ages, and leaves behind a valuable legacy for future Catholic generations in this Millennial year.
COURT-SPONSORED SUICIDE The Arabs and their UN sympathizers, including many dictatorial regimes, claimed that two central practices of the State of Israel define it as a racist state: the provision of land by the Jewish Agency on which to build Jewish settlements, and the "Law of Return," which grants automatic immigration rights to Jews.
TWO VISIONS For those Jews for whom the land possesses no inherent holiness, the Land of Israel could potentially be dissected, if necessary, as long as some territory - however small - remained.
ISRAEL: 'Stuck in a kind of Limbo' After the Lebanon flare-up, a stalled peace process and illegal funding revelations, Israelis are concerned Ehud Barak is doing an about-face on his promises and that their Dr. Jekyll is fast turning into Mr. Hyde.
