		<description><![CDATA[The irrefutable facts presented in the Levy Report should now put an end to the terms &#039;settlers&#039;, &#039;settlements&#039;, &#039;occupation&#039;, and the misnomer &#039;Palestinians&#039; when referring to the Arabs in the territory of Palestine.  
In 1922, the land east of the Jordan River (known as Eastern Palestine) which had originally been part of the original promise of the Jewish homeland (1920), was lopped off by Churchill to create Trans-Jordan (now present day Jordan) for
Arabs only - an apartheid state.   The remaining 23% - all of the territory known as &#039;Palestine&#039; today- was to be the Jewish state (1922).
Two thousand years ago, the Roman conquerors renamed the Jewish state of Judea as &#039;Palestina&#039; in an effort to cut the emotional ties of Jews to their land. 
Thus, until 1948, Jews were known worldwide as Palestinians when they became Israelis.  Even at that time the Arabs did not use the name &#039;Palestinians&#039; but preferred being identified as members of the larger Arab peoples and the countries from which they had emigrated - such as &#039;southern Syrians&#039;. Years after 1948 the Arabs decided to adopt the name &#039;Palestinians&#039; for political expediency because the name matches that of the territory which they would like to falsely claim as their being the  &#039;indigenous people&#039;.
The Levy Report brings, without a shadow of a doubt, Israel&#039;s legal and historical rights to the land west of the Jordan River and disproves the &#039;occupation&#039; that is claimed by the Arabs and others.  The land referred to as &#039;the West Bank; (in contrast to the &#039;East Bank&#039;) is legitimately known as Judea and Samaria and should be called by its rightful name.  Israel has the right to build its communities for its residents (out with &#039;settlers&#039; and &#039;settlements&#039;!) and to be respected as a sovereign nation -without the interference of outside meddlers.  
The Arabs who live in Israel as law-abiding citizens share rights with others.  Israel is the only country in the chaotic Mid-East that respects all religions and must be secure.  The Levy Report should be accepted as the groundwork for that.  Arlene Kushner is to be commended for her professional work and an excellent report.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Western governments are intimidated by the prospects of terror attacks on their citizens, and they want the problem to go away.  Historically, Israel has been seen as the cause of the problem, and pressure has been placed on Israel to give up lands to solve the problem.  Now, after more than forty years since the Munich Olympics in 1972, there is an increasing recognition that the problem is not Israel, but the philosophy of jihad and territorial conquest inherent in the teachings and life example of Muhammad and his followers.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Israel&#039;s capitulation to Muslim Arab propaganda narrative has been her undoing. 
By going along with land-for-peace deals (Sinai, Gaza) and even negotiating about giving up West bank, she unwittingly gives the impression that the Arab-Israeli conflict is a territorial dispute. 
This is why she has lost much of the international support she initially had when Israel declared independence in 1948 and was immediately attacked by Arab nations. 

Israelis come off as greedy land grabbers against innocent Palestinians when the conflict is mischaracterized as a territorial dispute, which it is not. The West bank  is historically, legally and unequivocally Jewish ancestral land. That should be non-negotiable.

Israel needs to focus world attention on the root cause of the conflict - Islamic antisemitism and hostility to the only non-Muslim nation in the Middle east, which Muslims consider Dar-ul Islam (Islamic territory). Nothing short of destruction of the Jewish nation would satisfy Arabs and Muslims globally.

Palestinians already have their state - Jordan - which was created in 1922 after the partition of British Mandated Palestine. Palestinians got the lion share (78%) in that partition, while Jews got a meagre 23% including West bank and Gaza. 
Thus by that 1922 partition, which was the last binding international agreement on Palestine, it is Palestinians in West bank &amp; Gaza who are occupiers of Israeli territory.]]></description>
