Watch Mordechai Kedar’s convincing performance on Al Jazeera television. Israeli politicians, academics and journalists usually cower in the face of “world opinion.”
Kedar gave the Saudi interviewer a Koran lesson in excellent native Arabic.
Unlike the United States, Israel has an abundance of non-Muslim Arabic speakers who have studied the Koran, are familiar with Islam and are immune to it.
If George Bush and Ehud Olmert had Kedar’s knowledge courage the world would be a safer place.
A YouTube commenter offers this insight.
The “West Bank” is Judea and Samaria, the heart of the heart of Biblical Israel. It is as much Jewish land as is Jerusalem, given to us by the Creator of the universe, and no amount of make believe will change that reality. We were told by G-d to settle our land, so we must, regardless of what any human tells us to the contrary.
