The current reality is unsustainable. We have an obligation to deal with the here, the
now, and the present. More occupation will yield more resistance; more statehood will
yield more diplomacy.
Israel must choose now between peace with the dispossessed indigenous people of
their state, or face another half-century of isolation with the backdrop of a rapidly
encroaching demographical dilemma.
