Israel: Peace at Home Vital for Regional Stability
Dominique Moïsi, French Inst. for International Relations | April 30, 2008
Israel’s amazing development over the last 60 years into a regional leader necessitates ending the conflict at home. ++ A strategic alliance with moderate Sunni Arabs in the Middle East is contingent upon Israel’s ability to live peacefully alongside a Palestinian state. ++ At the same time, Palestine must accept and respect its Israeli neighbors. ++ Only in this manner will the entire region experience a step in the direction of becoming a center for trade, technology, and above all peace, between the global North and South.
