From ‘One Voice’

On 20th June 2008, in Jerusalem, Tony Blair spoke to a group of young Israeli & Palestinian youth leaders from ‘One Voice’

One Voice is an international movement of Americans, Palestinians, Israelis, Europeans, Muslims, Jews and Christians who are fed up with the ongoing conflict and who are ready and eager to support a serious process, leading to a comprehensive agreement that will fulfil the hopes and aspirations of both the Palestinian and the Israeli people for a two-state solution.

Video also to be found here.

One Voice website AND  http://www.onevoice.org.il

The OneVoice Movement is an international mainstream grassroots movement with over 640,000 signatories in roughly equal numbers both in Israel and in Palestine, and 1,800 highly-trained youth leaders. It aims to amplify the voice of the overwhelming but heretofore silent majority of moderates who wish for peace and prosperity, empowering them to demand accountability from elected representatives and work toward a two-state solution guaranteeing an end to occupation and violence, and a viable, independent Palestinian state at peace with Israel.

More power to their elbow.

    silent majority of moderates who wish for peace and prosperity

    Now who made the claim that those who are willing to give up their lands are considered moderates? The word moderate is defined as a person who is moderate in opinion or opposed to extreme views and actions, especially in politics or religion.

    When Israel plans on destroying 1,500 homes in Jerusalem leaving thousands homeless, it is quite clear that moderation is not on this Nazi state’s agenda.

    When Jewish Rabbis issue commandments or “fatwas” justifying for their soldiers the killing of innocent Palestinian civilians, moderation is thrown out of the window.

    The only moderation that is left is to rid Palestine from the Barbaric and Violent Nazi Jews and Zionism. When all Palestinian refugees have the right to return to their homes and lands, and/or get compensated, then we may discuss a One-State solution. Yes, one state: Palestine is Arab and shall always be. Jews have no claim to this holy and pure land.

      Well, “attendingtheworld”, you’re off the planet with this one, I’m afraid.

      You and your ‘eliminate Israel’ agenda are onto a loser. BIG TIME. Better settle for what you can get, since you and your ilk have already had Gaza handed to you on a plate. You then set about ruining it.

    Response to “attending the world”:
    Just exactly what world are you attending my seriously misguided friend. It is obvious that you have suffered a perceived affront from a Jew or Israeli and it has injured your delicate feelings. My suggestion to you is to get a life. The young people from the One Voice movement are on the right track. Muslim violence is fostered and supported by old men with nothing better to do than send slow witted people to their death as suicide murderers. The world belongs to these young people and they will make of it something better than it is.
