Ceasefire

Israeli ceasfefire

"The call [for Israel] to declare a ceasefire and sit down to unconditional negotiations without preconditions no longer sounds as good since the experience of those blood-soaked years after the Oslo accords. It has an anachronistic and irrelevant taste... To think that this would lead to quiet and bring a halt to the killing of Israelis is surprising in both its naiveté and its non-learning from experience. Once, my lot was with those who thought that if we would only be nicer, show more goodwill, be more humane and offer more concessions -- everything would be just fine. But the lesson that we learned, and which cost us so much blood, is that this 1960's-flower-children-who-have-not-really-matured approach... is so stupid in the perspective of what we have gone through, that the brain bubbles with astonishment at hearing such things." (Amnon Dankner, editor of Ma'ariv, June 12, 2006)
