This is why I think the talks will fail.
Peace talks between the Israelis and Palestinians will begin tomorrow Washington DC. King Abdullah Mabarak of Egypt, as well as Israeli and Palestinian leaders will attend. Over the past week or so there has been a heavily publicized and financed campaign to push the Geneva initiative and to support the peace process in Israel. This was done according to news reports with heavy funding from USAID. Now we know that the USAID is supposedly funded through the United States State Department. But if anyone Google USAID and CIA they will find many many instances of information indicating that the Central intelligence agency has used in the past USAID money as a front to push for political change around the world. It is also interesting that many of the left wing so-called peace organizations in Israel are funded by the Ford foundation which in the past has been rumored also too of having CIA connections. Read The Cultural Cold War: The CIA and the World of Arts and Letters By Frances Stonor Saunders. If you go to the CIA website you can read a CIA agency book review. Now with this massive United States and foreign government interference in Israeli policy how can a peace agreement be a workable solution especially since many of the left wing so-called peace organizations do not have the support of the Israeli people. I have concluded that there is no way that the present peace process will succeed. Here are my reasons.

1. Minister of Defense Barak of labor was not elected by the Israeli people to make foreign-policy decisions. But he seems to be making those decisions instead of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. What does the defense minister hoped to gain from the peace negotiations. I don’t know and this is just a opinion but it is indeed interesting that in the past couple weeks and not only have there been rumors of possibly the manufacture of the US F35 Fighter Jet’s Wings in Israel, But also the purchase of 20 F35 from the United States.

2. Prime Minister Netanyahu does not have the support of all the parties of the coalition to withdraw from a major portion of the West Bank. He does not even have to support of his own Likud party. So I am unable to understand how he could deliver such an agreement.

3. If a peace arrangement is made based on ex-prime minister Ehud Barak’s 2000 peace proposal that ignores Israel’s basic religious sites, and lacks a border with strategic depth. No Israeli nor any Likud party member and many of the other coalition parties will accept the agreement. While some will argue that present military technology makes strategic depth obsolete that idea is extensively flawed. Strategic depth is not only needed to prevent terrorist attacks, but it is also needed to prevent two small countries from being integrated over time through cultural assimilation. What that basically means is that if two countries are so close together where there citizens are in constant contact where the borders become increasingly irrelevant that would become a major danger to the demographics of Israel as a Jewish state. Preventing that to me is more important than peace. If both states have no real borders or borders that are real small that will lead to either assimilation or increased tension by their internal civilian population. The ideal solution would be Israel with strategic depth not based on the borders of 67, or the Saudi plan, or to Barack plan of 2000. If strategic depth is not considered there is no way to sell this plan to the Israeli people, or even to get support from Likud and the vast majority of the other coalition parties in the present government. Likewise if religious sites in Judea and Samaria are not taken into account and included the plan will fail for the above reasons also. There could also be a civil war especially if many of the settlements are removed.

4. Creating a peace treaty that supports the idea of three Palestinian states is absurd if not crazy. The current peace plan basically recognizes Gaza as a Palestinian state, Judea and Samaria is a Palestinian state, and then there is Jordan which has 80% of the population being Palestinian. By supporting this absurd idea of three states and protecting Jordan King Abdullah Israel delegitimized herself as a Jewish state. There is only one Palestinian state and that is Jordan which is ruled by King Abdullah with a minority Bedouin ruling a majority 80% Palestinian population. A peace agreement ignoring that fact would be a huge mistake. A small Palestinian state in the West Bank alongside a small divided Israel Jewish state will cause friction because of overpopulation, and also increased Palestinian nationalism against Israel. I cannot believe that members of the Likud and the other ruling coalition parties and indeed the majority of the Israeli people would support an idea the peace treaty without that fact.

5. Ehud Barak and United States and the Arab governments want to make the old city of Jerusalem into an international zone. That is a mistake because such a solution would ignore the rights of Jewish worshipers in the old city and on the Temple Mount. It would also give away Israeli sovereignty of Jerusalem long claimed to be the heart of the Jewish nation. This will never never be accepted by the Israeli public or any members of the ruling coalition party. Likewise dividing Jerusalem without strategic depth on the borders would be insane. If this was done there would be a civil war in Israel.

In conclusion I believe that instead of bringing peace at the very least she may be closer to a regional war, as well as a possible civil war in Israel. I only hope that the powers that be within Israel can be trusted to make the right decision and make it for the right reasons because if not you might not have a Israel in 10 years.
