	Friends of Sabeel -- North America
		Since Israel has, by force, displaced the Palestinians, destroyed their villages and towns, denied them their basic human rights, and illegally dominated and oppressed them, it is morally bound to admit its injustice against the Palestinians and assume responsibility for it.
		Since Israel acquired by force 77% of the land of Palestine in 1948, approximately 20% more than the United Nations had allotted, and established its state there, it is moral and right for Israel to return the whole of the areas captured in 1967, i.e.
		Israel's 'Law of Return' which allows any Jewish person to immigrate to Israel while denying Palestinians the right of return to their homeland is immoral and discriminatory.

		The Arab League reacted to the peace treaty by suspending Egypt from the organisation and moving its headquarters from Cairo to Tunis.
		Israel and the PLO subsequently signed the Gaza-Jericho Agreement on May 4, 1994, and the Agreement on Preparatory Transfer of Powers and Responsibilities on August 29, 1994, which began the process of transferring authority from Israel to the Palestinians.
		Israel was fortunate in receiving large sums of capital inflows: U.S. aid in the forms of unilateral transfers and loans, German reparations and restitutions to individuals, sale of State of Israel Bonds abroad, and unilateral transfers to public institutions, mainly the Jewish Agency, which retained responsibility for immigration absorption and agricultural settlement.

	Israel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Israel is bordered by Lebanon in the north, Syria and Jordan in the east, and Egypt in the south-west.
		Israel usually posts sizable current account deficits, which are covered by large transfer payments from abroad and by foreign loans (although some economists would say the deficit is a sign of Israel's advancing markets).
		Israel is often subjected to criticism related to Human rights by various countries and non-governmental organizations, often in relation with the ongoing Arab-Israeli conflict and related Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

	West Bank barrier could be removed in event of peace: Israeli FM
		The legality of the barrier, which has drawn condemnation even from Israel's top ally the United States, is to be debated by the court based in The Hague on February 23 following an Arab-backed request by the UN General Assembly.
		When we signed the peace treaty with Jordan, we moved the fence once again.
		Israel claims the barrier is vital to its security and will prevent infiltrations by Palestinian attackers.

		As a war-weary president, Anwar Sadat was compelled to sign a peace treaty with Israel on very harsh terms, mainly because Egypt was exhausted by a state of continuous confrontation.
		Israel, rather than seizing the historic opportunity to engage in serious negotiations with its Arab neighbors on the basis of fair and reasonable terms for a lasting settlement, chose to exploit their weakness and impose--with full American backing--further injustice and humiliation, albeit in the name of making "peace".
		Israel's eventual acceptance of the 1991 Madrid conference was predicated on the condition that Madrid would be no more than a brief ceremonial entry to direct, separate negotiations with each Arab state.

	Egypt and Israel: A Reversible Peace - Middle East Quarterly - Fall 2003
		The peace, between Egypt and Israel, expected to be lasting, solid, and irreversible, was, however, reached by a democratic state and an authoritarian regime; between a society of Western political culture and norms and an Arab-Muslim society with different attitudes regarding the character of peace, the parameters of truth, and the meaning of justice.
		Therefore, the formal peace between Israel and its southern neighbor has been potentially reversible, almost by its nature, regardless of the fact that both sides have adhered to their peace treaty for a quarter of a century.
		Israel is still considered by Cairo, if not an enemy, then certainly its main rival for regional hegemony and a dangerous competitor for the benefits of peace.

	Myths & Facts - The Arms Balance
		Israel's decision not to be bound by the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) is based largely on the grounds that the treaty has done little to stem nuclear proliferation in the region.
		Israel's assumed nuclear deterrent is an option of last resort, needed to offset the threats it faces from the large imbalance in conventional arms, chemical weapons and ballistic missiles possessed by the Arab states.
		Israel has no incentive to unilaterally attack its neighbors with nuclear weapons whereas the Arabs — as history has shown — have both the capability and motivation to join in a war against Israel.

		Israel's enemies claimed, and still do, that Zionism seeks to perpetuate Israeli rule over Arabs in the occupied West Bank, which Israel seized from Jordan in the war of 1967.
		Supporters of Zionism point out that Israel is a democracy, where Arabs—including Christians and Moslems, as well as other ethnic groups such as the Druse and the Circassians—are granted the right to vote, freedom of religious expression, and other civil liberties equal to those guaranteed to the Jews.

	Israel and the occupied territories
		It concluded a peace treaty with Egypt in 1979 and with Jordan in 1994, and a series of agreements with the Palestinians beginning in 1993.
		Israel continues to control certain civil functions and is responsible for all security in portions of the occupied territories categorized as Area C, which includes the Israeli settlements and 4 percent of the total West Bank Palestinian population.
		Israel's overall human rights record in the occupied territories was poor; although the situation improved slightly during the first 9 months of the year, it worsened in several areas late in the year, mainly due to the sustained violence that began in September.

		The original intention of the PLO was to destroy the state of Israel, which was called for in the Palestinian National Covenant.
		As of this writing (2001) the PNC still has not undergone any changes; the unmodified version calling for the total destruction of the State of Israel is still used in the PA and is taught in PA schools.
		Some within the PLO and the PA, such as Yassir Arafat, have recently denied that the State of Israel has a right to exist, and that any Peace treaty with Israel is a temporary measure, and should be only be a prelude to the eventual destruction of Israel.

	Palestinian Refugees Right of Return - Zionism and Israel - Issues and Answers FAQ
		When Israel was created in 1948, Arab states and Arab Palestinians attacked the Jewish community in Palestine and the Jewish state, vowing to "drive the Jews into the sea." They lost the war however, and some 725,000 Arab Palestinians fled or were expelled from the area that became Israel.
		To deal with the refugee problem, the UN created the UNRWA agency, which was thought to be a temporary measure until a permanent resolution of the refugee problem could be effected.
		It is absurd for Palestinians to claim the right to a state under this provision, while at the same time claiming that "justice" demands the "right" of return, which would prevent the Jewish people from exercising their own right to self determination, and would result in destruction of a member state of the UN.

		They have since discovered that Israel had in fact been manipulating them and that there cannot be normal relation between Lebanon and Israel before a permanent, just, and comprehensive settlement to the regional conflict is reached.
		It suggests that Israel should “announce that (it) is now mature enough to cut itself free immediately from at least U.S. economic aid and loan guarantees at least, which prevent economic reform” because “self-reliance will grant Israel greater freedom of action and remove a significant lever of pressure used against it in the past”.
		Unfortunately, America is perceived to be blindly supportive of Israel, whose daily trampling on the dignity of and Arabs and denying their human rights breeds humiliation and frustration among its victims.
