Monty Sagi's reasoning is sagging

Submitted by Jeff Burke (Canada), Nov 22, 2006 at 12:27

" The fact that the Israeli Jewish population has become increasingly "right wing" and ambivalent - to say the least - about further compromise, is a direct result of raging terror, decreased national security, and a growing sense of isolation in the world".

"It may be that the agreement will be broken one day and we will find ourselves at war with Egypt

Although I respect Mr. Sagi because he lives in Israel, his reasoning is very weak

The Israeli Jewish population ( whose percentage is decreasing ) has moven to the right due to the fact that all of these agreements and acquiescence of land has not resulted in the peaceful paradise that Be'Tselem leftists (Yael Dayan, Yossi Beilin, David Grossman, et al. ) all wanted us to believe will happen and that Arab " hand me down" hatred is not only legitimate but the fault of the West.

In fact the venomous hatred is much greater now than before this Oslo charade began.

Israel has followed the Egypt- Peace Treaty to the letter both militarily and commercially with little to show for it. Cross border exchanges re: cultural and commerical have always been one-sided; from the Israeli side of course.

It is my belief that signing this treaty, Israel displayed softness and sensitivity. This only empowered the enemies of Israel to attack her from the North expecting a second treaty with Syria to leave the Golan

This treaty has made Israel more and more dependent upon American goodwill while leaving Israel very vulnerable to more venom from the Western leftists.

BTW Mr. Sagi, Israel will be at war soon. And one of the warring countries may be Egypt headed by Gemal Mubarak.

Do not be surprised to see Dhimmi Carter defending the natural response by Egypt to attack Israel on CNN or PBS.
