Capturing the MidEast in short soundbites: poignant reflections by people who understand the complexities of the Middle East. My philosophy is: "less is more." You won't agree with everything that's here, but I'm confident you will find it interesting! Excepting the titles, my own comments are minimal. Instead I rely on news sources to string together what I hope is an interesting, politically challenging, non-partisan, non-ideological narrative.

Dead End
Gen. Yaalon: Occupation Is Not Root of Conflict - Yaakov Lappin
"The fact that Israel was attacked last summer from two areas it left, strengthens the sense of a dead end, and proves that the root of the conflict is not the occupation of territories," Yaalon said.
"Withdrawal will not solve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict or solve the jihadi threat....The basis of our belief, that the other side wants two states, is false."
