Beyond Annapolis

Submitted by Gene, Nov 25, 2007 08:13

First I find it quite good that Annapolis was chosen to be the site for a meeting to discuss a possible Peace between Israel and the Arab population of the West Bank and Gaza. Annapolis has turned out some very real leaders over the years for the U.S. Navy, even Jimmy Carter who is only for peace on earth regardless of the consequences.

However, for anything to be accomplished we must have some very bold and fearless leadership from the people attending the meeting. Steps that were generated in the British division, UNSC 242 resolution, The Oslo Agreement, The Quartet´s Road Map to a two state solution, King Abdullah's Peace Plan, etc. must all be reviewed, torn apart and put back together again in a form that both sides can agree upon.

This has been a mankind created problem for over 3,000 years with the area being taken by force by various groups over the years. However, at the very heart of the problem is the Arabs refusal to recognize the Jewish people, even though their prophet Muhammad recognized them when they took him in back in b.c 642 giving him sanctuary against the Arab tribes trying to kill him at the time. This was in the city of Medina which today is located within Saudi Arabia. As the Jewish people of the time would not convert to Muhammad's teachings he turned against the Jewish people as a whole which is the way it is today. This is taught to every Muslim worldwide today which is part of the problem in that Islam does not want to recognize any religion except Islam causing the problems engulfing the world today. A young Muslim woman asks on YouTube when America is going to change its attitude toward the Muslim countries, I daresay when is Islam going to change its attitude toward the other people on this earth?

Annapolis will be another of the failures in trying to bring about peace in the region as the True Roots of the problem will not be discussed.
