Alex Talking Peace
Hi, I’m Alex, I’m 24 years old and I’m a New Media and Communications student from Hertzliya, Tel Aviv and I want to talk to you about the Palestinian people. Now I personally don’t hate the Palestinians, I don’t feel anything bad towards them I just think they are poor misguided people who are being used by their leaders and are not treated well by international community. But I believe that they should take responsibility for themselves, overthrow their corrupt government and their terrorist organization that controls them and make peace with us.
Niv Talking Peace – A War of Peace
Niv is a 24-year-old student who wants to tell the people in Europe and around the world that only care about Israel or the Palestine conflict every time there is a crisis that erupts that we are trying to make peace for the past 8 years. We waited, we had patience for 8 years while the rockets and missiles were landing on our towns and we finally decided to take action as everyone else in the world failed to intervene. This is a war for peace. We hope that the Palestinian people will finally realize that they have to overthrow their corrupt government and help us achieve peace in this area.

2000 Israel Praised for Readiness to Make Hard Compromises
26-July-2000
U.S. President Bill Clinton singled out Israeli Prime Minister, Ehud Barak, for his readiness to make hard compromises during negotiations with PLO leader Yasir Arafat at Camp David. ”I would be making a mistake not to praise Barak, because I think he took a big risk,” the president said. ”The prime minister moved forward more from his initial position than Chairman Arafat, particularly surrounding the question of Jerusalem.”
Barak laid the full blame for the setback on Arafat, and declared that Israel was prepared for ”every possibility.” And stated: ”The vision of peace suffered a major blow, but I believe that with good faith, good will on all sides it can recuperate.”
