For the first time in history, Isreal has in principle agreed for Palestine State alongside Isreal. Isreal has always been opposing Palestine state and Palestine Issue could be the longest and most reported conflict in the world! It has resulted many wars between Isreal and Arab countries. Wikipedia has a fairly long documentation on it!
On June 14, 2009, Netanyahu, leader of the conservative party Likud Party, the Prime Minister of Isreal, gave a half an hour long speech to his nation, which was broadcast, “In this small land of ours, two peoples live freely, side-by-side, in amity and mutual respect. Each will have its own flag, its own national anthem, its own government. Neither will threaten the security or survival of the other.”
This is in response to Barack Obama’s famous June 4 speech in Cairo to Arab world and the change in stance by Isreal is seen as a result of immense American pressure. But this may well be a solution to the vexed issue which has claimed many lives so far and Isreal has been living on edge. I sincerely wish, this good will and compromise should be accepted and taken further by conflicting parties in good spirit. Most probably, this can be the start of end of the Isreal-Arab conflict or Jew-Muslim war, as many people like to call.
Here is the news:
JERUSALEM — The prime minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, on Sunday endorsed for the first time the principle of a Palestinian state alongside Israel, but on condition that the state was demilitarized and that the Palestinians recognized Israel as the state of the Jewish people.
In a much-anticipated speech meant in part as an answer to President Obama’s address in Cairo on June 4, Mr. Netanyahu reversed his longstanding opposition to Palestinian statehood, a move seen as a concession to American pressure. Complete Story.
