Barack Obama simply does not believe that the Israel-Palestinian conflict is a zero-sum game. He truly believes, as I do, that everyone will be better off once peace is achieved in the Middle East.
It is high time that the Arab world's professed desire for peace in the Middle East is matched by responsible action, and not more of the same equivocation.
For a country that has led the world in developing cutting edge communication hardware and software technologies, it is ironic and saddening that Israel has so far failed to utilize them wisely in its own defense.
For all those who care deeply about the security and well-being of the Jewish state, it is clear that the present political system is not working. Israel's own politics are hindering it from the crucial steps it needs to take for its own survival.
Even as American Jewry extends its political support to Israel, we should never stop questioning how we can make a "better Israel" a reality.
