That's moderates?
That's moderates?
Experience has taught me to be on guard whenever I encounter "peace" in the name of a group. Which is why I became wary when I encountered an "Open Letter To Palestinian Public Opinion" by the "Palestinian Peace Coalition".
Following is the Coalition's principal demand, listed as Number One:
[T]he creation of the independent Palestinian state within the borders of 4th June 1967 with East Jerusalem its capital alongside the state of Israel and to reach an agreed upon and a just settlement for the question of refugees in line with UN Resolution 194 and the Arab Summit Resolutions of Beirut 2002.
In case this is insufficiently categorical, the Arab peaceniks add this clarification:
We would also stress on the need to reject all illegal and internationally-condemned changes on the ground that the Israeli occupation has accumulated in the occupied Palestinian territories, including Jewish settlements and the Segregation Wall. Those changes aim to suppress the national aspirations of our people to a fully sovereign state.
And these are supposed to be the moderates!
