Does Israel Need a Plan

During a period of approximately 10 years, we have followed your various publications on the Middle East and especially on the Palestinian/Israelie war.

Let us express our admiration for your depth of knowledge of Middle East history, clarity and understanding of the subject, endless efforts to clarify and explain the situation in the Middle East.

Your unusual intellect and tremendous courage has brought you to a level high above those who argue with you on an emotional basis without ability (or desire) to understand what you are talking about and the lack of intellectual honesty to maintain discussion on the topic.

Your analysis on the Palestinian/Israelie war should be learned by all those who are trying to find "solutions to the problem":

the U.S. State Department,
major American broadcasters
all major publications and media
BBC,
CBC
all Foreign Affairs ministries of countries involved
academics.

The solution for the Palestinian/Israelie war is to be found in your recommendations.

Congratulations Mr. Pipes. May you be blessed with good health, success and the ability to continue your endless efforts in bringing peace to the Middle East.

Copies sent to Jerusalem Post, The National Post, BBC, CBC, The Economist, Thomas Friedman (New York TImes), U.S. State Dept.
