Back from vacation, catching up on some reading...ah, here's one I like. My tastes have tended away from lofty thoughts and more toward plain facts, which are perhaps the most eloquent integers out there. Here Dore Gold considers the idea that, in some sort of ostensible peace deal, Israel should entrust the strategically vital Jordan Valley to foreign forces--as proposed by many, including previous prime minister Ehud Olmert.
To test that notion, Gold looks at UNIFIL's record in Lebanon since 2006. The ballyhooed UN Security Council Resolution 1701, which some viewed as a positive outcome of Israel's military campaign against Hizballah in Lebanon that summer, stipulated the largely European-manned UNIFIL keeping the territory south of the Litani River clean of Hizballah weaponry. The reality that has developed is somewhat different. No one who objectively looks at this reality could rationally recommend that Israel follow the same script in the Jordan Valley. Facts speak loudest.
I'd be interested in hearing. The TOS seems rather clear that it is not unless expressly approved by Amazon. I guess if the library got it in writing then they would be ok.
