RE: The doomed Mideast ‘peace process’ By Jeff Jacoby http://www.boston.com/bostonglobe/editorial_opinion/oped/articles/2009/10/14/the_doomed_mideast_peace_process/
Dear Editor,
Israel is the one most eager to dismiss diplomatic initiatives to end the Palestine/Israel conflict. Fact is Israel has spent the past 61 years systemically and intentionally destroying Palestinian homes and usurping Palestinian land: Israel's settlers assisted by ardent propagandists both here and there, seek to sabotage all hope of peace and justice today so that a basically borderless Israel can usurp even more Arab land and push even more Arabs into poverty, forced exile, despair and extremism tomorrow.
Sincerely,
Anne Selden Annab
1. Requests Israel to reconsider its policies and declare that a just peace is its strategic option as well.
2. Further calls upon Israel to affirm:
I- Full Israeli withdrawal from all the territories occupied since 1967, including the Syrian Golan Heights, to the June 4, 1967 lines as well as the remaining occupied Lebanese territories in the south of Lebanon.
II- Achievement of a just solution to the Palestinian refugee problem to be agreed upon in accordance with U.N. General Assembly Resolution 194.
III- The acceptance of the establishment of a sovereign independent Palestinian state on the Palestinian territories occupied since June 4, 1967 in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
3. Consequently, the Arab countries affirm the following:
I- Consider the Arab-Israeli conflict ended, and enter into a peace agreement with Israel, and provide security for all the states of the region.
II- Establish normal relations with Israel in the context of this comprehensive peace.
