 Barak admits Gaza truce success
BBC News - Israel`s defence minister has acknowledged a military invasion of Gaza would not stop cross-border rocket attacks by Palestinian militants. Mr Barak said if Israeli forces invaded Gaza and stayed there two years "destroying the Hamas regime down to the last office and the last activist... you control another people against their will". He said that such circumstances would strengthen Palestinians` support in Gaza for Hamas rather the Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and his Fatah party.

 Palestinian women prisoners, harsh treatment and a lot of arbitrariness
WOFPP - On 20 July 2008 at 4:30am, wardens entered the cell of `Abeer `Odeh and Maryam elTarabin who are held in isolation. `Abeer `Odeh, from Tulkarem, was arrested on 22 April 2006.

 Just fire a rubber bullet at him?
Haaretz Editorial - Shooting a shackled and blindfolded person, who is clearly not endangering soldiers, and even shooting in order to frighten, or the threat to shoot in order to frighten, and not even directly at the person`s body but only in immediate proximity to him, are all acts forbidden by law, whether military or civil, during times of both war and peace (...) The decision to try on a relatively minor charge sends a message to soldiers that the IDF is prepared to close its eyes.

 Against attack on Iran - international Jewish reaction to Morris
[The] clamour for war with Iran has met not only popular opposition but also runs counter to the quiet diplomacy that has engaged Iran in ongoing relations with the UN nuclear agency, as well as economic trade talks with the USA itself. Israel is also committed to a cease-fire that has held now for a month’s time, to the relief of both the populations of Israel and Gaza. In light of the developing political atmosphere of reason and negotiations, the militarist mindset has pumped up its rationale for war attempting to create the preconditions for a further war.

 Two states for two peoples: solution or illusion?
Tony Klug - Open Democracy - Israel/Palestine is not South Africa; nor is it Northern Ireland; nor is it directly analogous to a host of other international or historical trouble-spots. Each conflict has its own peculiar features and, for a solution to work, it needs to spring from the inside-out.
