Israelis defending themselves from wars of aggression for the first three decades of the State's existence. The tension of regular terror outrages that brought unbearable carnage to Israel's streets and unspeakable pain to so many Israeli families. An unprovoked barrage of Saddam's scuds, Nasrallah's katyushas, Haniah's Kassams and now the threat of Ahmadinedjad's nuclear warheads barreling their way towards us.

And yet, for anyone who took the time to check, over the last many years, a majority of Israelis have consistently polled in favor of a two-state solution.

So, why do Israelis teach about peace in schools and despite constant setbacks, send government after government to negotiate? Because, as Jeffrey insists, peace is about our existence. Surrounded by enemies, there is no life for us without it and no alternative to achieving it.

Look beyond golden beaches, designer shirts and Tel Aviv apartment prices made famous by magazine copy. There are millions of Israelis who have not given up.

thedoctori, do you believe the Arabs and the Islamic "world" desire a peace that leaves Israel intact?

Time is wrong because it has an anti-Israel slant, and doesn't look at facts objectively. The Israelis live in a dangerous neighborhood and have bent over backwards to accomodate every kind of peace possibility, while the Palestinians consistently reject the idea of accepting an Israeli state.
