The Moral Chasm and the Pursuit of Mideast Peace. By Richard Landes.

The Moral Chasm and the Pursuit of Peace. By Richard Landes. The Augean Stables, May 19, 2013.

Landes:

The bad news is that until the Palestinians grow up, there will be no peace, and that, at the moment, land concessions actually make things worse. And they won’t grow up as long as their “honor group” consists of other Arabs who live in fantasy worlds and they get support from “progressives” who think that they’re being brave and honorable by supporting their vengeful mentality.

The first Arab leader to wean his people from their scape-goating anti-Zionism will create the first productive, democratic Arab state. May it happen swiftly, in our days.
