...reading Jonathan Moses's article entitled, "A Solution For Israel", in The Crimson of January 20th, I was very distressed to find that a fellow Jew had fallen into the current media trap set by the Western press. Admittedly with constant photos of Israeli soldiers firing at seemingly harmless Palestinian children, it is hard to see the other side, yet I had hoped that the educated among us would not succumb to the unending, unfair, anti-Israel journalism of the past six weeks. To begin to understand the Israeli position, all we have to do is imagine what it must...

...City be used as a peace-keeping, U.N.-controlled territory? The United Nations already regards Jerusalem as an international city, and the U.S. Embassy is located in Tel Aviv.

Let the Palestinians have a chance to rule themselves. The idea that Israel should wait for more moderate Palestinian leadership has been made a mockery by the riots due to the continued occupation by Israel. Those Israelis who have settled...

...Look!" says Private Dror, his eyes nervously scanning the street. "There are no youngsters over twelve in sight. Hell, where have they disappeared to?" The five Israeli soldiers from the Nahal unit quickly slip down a narrow alley. Four Palestinian youths peek briefly from between two houses. Seconds later, a hailstorm of stones and metal pieces pelts the patrol. Hugging the walls, the unit breaks apart. When it reassembles, Dror, 20, is breathless. Three masked men had hit him with rocks. "The bastards knew very well I couldn't do anything to them," he mutters to TIME...
