Eretz Israel is our unforgettable historic homeland...The Jews who will it shall achieve their State...And whatever we attempt there for our own benefit will redound mightily and beneficially to the good of all mankind. (Theodor Herzl, DerJudenstaat, 1896)

We offer peace and amity to all the neighbouring states and their peoples, and invite them to cooperate with the independent Jewish nation for the common good of all. The State of Israel is ready to contribute its full share to the peaceful progress and development of the Middle East.
(From Proclamation of the State of Israel, 5 Iyar 5708; 14 May 1948)

With a liberal democratic political system operating under the rule of law, a flourishing market economy producing technological innovation to the benefit of the wider world, and a population as educated and cultured as anywhere in Europe or North America, Israel is a normal Western country with a right to be treated as such in the community of nations.... For the global jihad, Israel may be the first objective. But it will not be the last. (Friends of Israel Initiative)

  1. Israel needs more speakers like the Melbourne born Mr. Regev!

  2. Endless peace process? There's been an endless refusal from one side to negotiate peace. That's not much of a process.

    Regev is unflappable in the face of repeated lies. And lies is the most polite word I can think of for what the AJ interviewer was spouting. Regev stayed calm and argued intelligently.

  3. Yes, Regev was at his best in this interview.
    Thanks for your comments, Rita and Violet.
