Key stories in the media:
-------------------------
Major media (lead story in HaQaretz) reported on President ObamaQs
meeting yesterday with 15 leaders of prominent American Jewish
organizations at the White House, for talks aimed at clearing the
air following allegations that his administration was taking a tough
line with Israel over settlement activity. The Jerusalem Post noted
that some conservative groups were excluded from the meeting. At
the meeting, Obama told the leaders that he wants to help Israel
overcome its demographic problem by reaching an agreement on a
two-state solution, but that in order to do so, Israel would need
"to engage in serious self-reflection." On the Iranian nuclear
issue, Obama told the leaders that "the door to dialogue is open. If
the Iranians do not walk through it, however, we will have to see
how we proceed. But it would be a mistake to talk now about what
we're going to do and how we're going to do it." One of the
participants at the meeting asked the President to take a lower
profile regarding the public differences between his administration
and the government of PM Benjamin Netanyahu over the United States'
demand that Israel freeze all settlement construction activity in
the West Bank. "This situation is not helpful," he told the
President, who rejected the request, saying that during the eight
years of the Bush administration, such disagreements were never made
public but that such an approach was not helpful in advancing the
peace process. Obama added that there is a narrow window of
opportunity for advancing the peace process and that he plans to
speak openly and honestly with Israel -- "a true friend of the U.S."
-- just as he did with the Arab nations in his speech at Cairo
University in June. HaQaretz quoted Jeremy Ben-Ami, executive
director of J Street, who attended the meeting, as saying afterwards
that he believed that President Obama was asserting positions aimed
at achieving two states for two peoples, a stance he claimed is
supported by the majority of the Jewish community in the United
States that voted for Obama. Israel Radio reported that the
President told the Jewish leaders that he is not applying biased
pressure on Israel and that his demands of the Palestinians and the
Arab states are no smaller than his demands of Israel. The radio
quoted Malcolm Hoenlein, executive vice chairman of the Conference
of Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations, as saying that the
President indicated that there is progress in talks with Israel
about the settlements. Yediot and Israel Radio reported that Obama
told the Jewish leaders that the United StatesQ disagreement with
Israel regarding the settlements is akin to differences of opinion
within the family.
Yediot reported that, in recent talks with Jewish leaders, Obama
associates raised the possibility that the President may come to
Israel in order to reassure its citizens that he is committed to its
security.
HaQaretz reported that Netanyahu met with the Quartet's Middle East
envoy Tony Blair yesterday to discuss ways to improve the
Palestinian economy. Netanyahu told Blair that the West Bank's
Palestinian residents could achieve more if they were to increase
their cooperation with Israel. Israel Hayom quoted Blair as saying
yesterday, during a meeting with PM Netanyahu, that Israel does not
get enough credit for its measures to ease the condition of the
Palestinians -- such as the lifting of roadblocks.
HaQaretz reported that, seven years after construction work began on
the West Bank separation fence, the project seems to have run
aground. Work has slowed significantly since September 2007, and
today, after the state has spent about 9.5 billion shekels (around
$2.375 billion), only about 60% of the more limited, revised route
has been completed. Giant gaps remain in the southern part of the
fence, particular in the southern outskirts of Jerusalem, in the
Etzion bloc and in the Judean Desert.
Electronic media reported that settlers told security forces that
last night Palestinians pelted their car with stones, causing it to
crash into a wall. But the Ynet news Web site cited the IDF and
policeQs belief that the accident was result of reckless driving.
Israel Radio reported that the settlers tried to pray illegally at
the site of JoshuaQs Tomb.
The Jerusalem Post led with German prosecutorsQ charges against John
Demjanjuk that he was an accessory to murder of 27,900 JewsQ at the
death camp of Sobibor.
Makor Rishon-Hatzofe reported that yesterday the High Court of
Justice demanded that the state conclude within four months its
hearing process regarding two West Bank settler outposts, and that
it set a calendar for the demolition of permanent structures there.
The court was responding to a petition by Peace Now.
The Jerusalem Post cited a denial by Deputy FM Danny Ayalon that
American envoy Frederick Hoff was bringing with him to Israel an
early draft of a U.S. plan for an Israel-Syria compromise on the
Golan. Yediot wonders whether Israel and Syria will agree to the
reported American plan, which includes the creation of a nature
reserve.
The Jerusalem Post reported that yesterday Britain denied that it
had imposed an embargo on Israel in the wake of Operation Cast
Lead.
Maariv reported that Egypt has clarified to Israel that Shaul
Kemisa, whom FM Avigdor Lieberman intended to appoint as Israel's
ambassador to Cairo, is a persona non grata in that country.
The Jerusalem Post reported that, in an effort to promote
reconciliation among the faiths, two Jewish leaders -- Rabbis Marc
Schneier and David Rosen -- are taking part in a Saudi-sponsored
interfaith forum in Vienna, which is also being attended by an
Iranian religious leader.
HaQaretz reported that Khaled Dawoud, the chief UN correspondent of
Al Jazeera-TV, has accused the Israeli delegation at the UN of
discriminatory policies and harassment. The Israeli diplomats, for
their part, have accused Dawoud of disruptive behavior along with
exploiting press conferences and events involving Israeli officials
as a platform from which to bash Israel.
The Jerusalem Post reported that a group of 13 American rabbis from
across the religious spectrum are calling for a water-only fast on
the third Thursday of each month. Those behind the initiative say
that hey seek to end the Jewish communityQs silence over IsraelQs
collective punishment of Palestinians in Gaza.
All media reported that the task force handling illegal immigrants
discovered that Micky Louis Mayon, whom it arrested in Tel Aviv on
Sunday, was one of the FBI's 100 most wanted criminals. Mayon is
wanted in the U.S. for many federal crimes, among them membership in
the Ku Klux Klan, burning federal judges' cars, and several other
charges of severe violence. Intelligence passed on to Israel by
Interpol suggests that Mayon entered Israel illegally in 2008 and
changed his location every two days since his arrival.
The Jerusalem Post reported that PM Netanyahu Qcan finally point to
an achievementQ: Yesterday the KnessetQs Economic Affairs Committee
passed the Israel Land Administration (ILA) reform plan, one of
NetanyahuQs major campaign promises. The daily says that Netanyahu
and his backers have argued that the plan is meant to restructure
the ILA and turn it into a more efficient body, one that could focus
on its main task of making the stateQs land available for
development, instead of having to sign off on every homeownerQs
application to add a room or close off a balcony. The Jerusalem
Post recalls that Qdoomsday scenariosQ were raised of the land being
purchased by Saudi Arabian oil magnates or ending up in the hands of
a small cabal of real estate tycoons.
HaQaretz reported that Israeli Arab Knesset Member Ahmad Tibi has
joined the chorus of voices calling for cell phone company Cellcom
to pull its latest commercial, in which IDF soldiers are seen
playing soccer with unseen Palestinians next to the West Bank
separation fence. Tibi's letter joins several similar requests from
Arab lawyers, while the ad itself has generated much criticism in
the Israeli blogosphere. "The barrier separates families and
prevents children from reaching schools and clinics," Tibi told
Reuters. "Yet the advertisement presents the barrier as though it
were just a garden fence in Tel Aviv."
Both Yediot and Maariv bannered former Shas cabinet minister Aryeh
DeriQs expected return to politics, as the Qperiod of moral
turpitudeQ in the wake of his conviction for bribery, fraud, and
breach of trust is ending.
Leading media reported that shareholders of Channel 10-TV are
freezing the transfer of funds to the station, which might
eventually closedown. The Jerusalem Post reported that yesterday
Knesset Member Nachman Shai (Kadima) recommended that the KnessetQs
Economic Affairs Committee discuss the possibility of providing
government aid to the station.
HaQaretz reported that Israel Air Force planes were mistakenly
ordered last weekend to shoot down a Continental Airlines passenger
plane suspected of being flown to Israel with terrorist intentions.
A technical failure, apparently with ground communication units, is
believed to have prevented the pilots of the American carrier from
identifying their plan upon entry to Israeli airspace, as required.
Media reported that Canadian artist Leonard Cohen will not be
performing in Ramallah as planned. The Jerusalem Post quoted
pro-Palestinian activists as saying that Cohen was not welcome in
Ramallah as long as he insisted on performing in Tel Aviv, where a
concert is planned for September 24.

¶I. "Arabs DonQt Expel Jews"
Senior op-ed writer Akiva Eldar commented in the independent,
left-leaning Ha'aretz (7/14): QUnfortunately, [a] guide [recently
put out by the Israel Project, the organization spearheading
Israel's public relations efforts in the U.S.] does not suggest a
response to anyone who heard and/or read the opinions of Palestinian
Prime Minister Salam Fayyad, or of Ahmed Qurei, the head of the
negotiating team, who invited the residents of Ariel and Ma'aleh
Adumim to remain in their homes and live in peace and equality as a
Jewish minority in Palestine. Qurei even said he broached this
subject with former U.S. secretary of state Condoleezza Rice. Too
bad none of the Prime Minister's many advisers directed his
attention to this generous Palestinian offer. Had he been aware, he
might have refrained from making cheap usage of the ethnic cleansing
argument in a conversation he had last week with Germany's Foreign
Minister, Frank Walter Steinmeier.... How ... can Israel explain its
decision to establish new facts on the ground in the heart of the
territories whose future it actually agreed to discuss [namely in
the area of MaQaleh Adumim]? Who will believe that Israel came to
the negotiation table with clean hands at a time when it is putting
its paws on yet another chunk of land?
II. "Let Bibi Work"
Senior columnist and longtime dove Yoel Marcus wrote in Ha'aretz
(7/14): QBibi is at the helm during a fatal crossroads in the
state's life. He is locked in an unprecedented clash with an
American president who doesn't play with mannerisms of love for the
Jews. An expose by [Washington correspondent] Orly Azolai in last
weekend's Yediot Aharonot cites a Qsource closeQ to U.S. Envoy
George Mitchell, saying QObama is not Bush and if Israel isn't with
him in the move he's leading, he won't harm it, but it won't enjoy
that special status that is critical for it.Q This is not simply
worded. Never has an Israeli prime minister been under such a harsh
threat as Netanyahu is from Obama. Bibi has formed a functioning
government, which in a time of need could be boosted by Kadima. The
ideological move he is spearheading is different from that of the
previous government. If impeded, he will not succeed. If we don't
let him work, we won't know whether this is a different Bibi. We
can criticize him for deviating from a political or ideological
line, but don't tug the hem of his jacket, and leave him alone with
the shtetl [Diaspora mentality] nonsense. Let Bibi work.
III. "America and Israel: Wither?"
Zalman Shoval, a senior Likud member and former ambassador to the
U.S., wrote in the independent Israel Hayom(7/14): QLet us suppose
for a moment that some kind of agreement will be reached with the
Americans on the issue of building in the settlements. So, what
then? Both Washington and Jerusalem talk about a Qregional
arrangementQ -- but it is unclear whether they refer to the same
contents. For instance, as far as Israel is concerned, the solution
of the refugee problem should be implemented partly through
integration in the countries in which they have been residing for
three generations and through financial compensation for the others;
recognition of Israel as the state of the Jewish people will
certainly be required Q in the way we are supposed to recognize a
Palestinian state as the state of the Palestinian people. As far as
Israel is concerned, there should be an agreed-upon framework for
the future Palestine state and limitations to its sovereignty. One
could talk about a regional QMarshall PlanQ that would include the
accelerated economic development of the Palestinian territories....
However, as far as the United States is concerned, it seems that the
Qregional arrangementQ has other characteristics: The Americans are
talking about gestures such as allowing Israeli civilian planes to
fly over the territory of Arab countries, the opening of some sorts
of Israeli diplomatic representations in the Arab countries, and
vice-versa. This should not be disregarded, but Israel will have to
make concrete concessions in exchanges for mostly symbolic gestures.
In the mean time, it turns out that the [U.S.] administration has
not managed to get Saudi Arabia, the major player, to make even
symbolic gestures.
IV. "QReal MediationQ"
The conservative, independent Jerusalem Post editorialized (7/14):
Q[In a July 11 speech in London, European Union foreign policy chief
Javier] Solana offered a way forward toward creating a Palestinian
state: Qreal mediation.Q By this, he appeared to mean imposing a
solution, and a timetable for its implementation. If the parties
didn't go along, he'd have the UN Security Council essentially
codify the "real mediation" with its imprimatur. The contrasting
reactions to the Solana speech are instructive. The Palestinians'
creative interpretation had Solana calling for the Security Council
to recognize a Palestinian state -- in line with their maximalist
stance -- by a certain deadline; even if Israel does not.
Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat said: QWe do not object. It's
time for the international community to stop treating Israel as
above the laws of man.Q The reaction of Israel's Foreign Ministry
was that peace had to be built on negotiations, not imposed.
Plainly, the Palestinians trust that an internationally imposed
QpeaceQ would mostly ignore Israeli concerns, while catering to
theirs. Israelis do not disagree.
¶V. QThere Are Democracies and There Are Democracies
Hen Alon, a reserves major who served time in jail for refusing to
serve in the territories and is a member of Combatants for Peace,
wrote in the popular, pluralist Maariv (7/14): QThe senior [Israeli]
government officials were gripped by excitement. The masses in Iran
had taken to the streets. Defense Minister Ehud Barak said: QWhat
we see in the streets of Iran is the genuine energy of young people
who don't want what they see.Q Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
added: QThe free world is stunned by the willingness of the Iranian
people to insist on its rightsQ.... When masses of Palestinians took
to the streets in 1987, the Israeli response was less than
enthusiastic. QBreak their arms and legs,Q the defense minister at
the time [Yitzhak Rabin] ordered. Nobody here said, QThe masks have
been removed from the Israeli regimeQ.... There is no question that
the Israeli view of events in Iran, more than they show something
about the Iranians, reveal the Israeli self-perception and the
enormous gap between this and reality. Perhaps Barak and Netanyahu
should be reminded of the reality that exists in the territories.
In fact, democracy in Israel is a limited democracy. Israel cannot
meet the minimal requirements of the free world. Like a child who
terrorizes his classmates but supports the mistreated child in the
other class, Netanyahu and Barak identify with the wrong side. When
the Palestinian masses again rise up to insist on their rights
against an oppressive and imperious regime, Barak and Netanyahu will
be the ones to wield the clubs, not those who take the beatings.
