Key stories in the media:
-------------------------
All media led with last nightQs fruitless meeting between Likud
Chairman Benjamin Netanyahu and Kadima chair Tzipi Livni. Whereas
Netanyahu stressed the importance of unity, Livni was quoted as
saying that they had Qdeep differences on diplomatic issues.Q Livni
asked Netanyahu to recognize the principle of Qtwo states for two
peoples.Q However, she agreed to hold further unity talks with
Netanyahu. Maariv reported that Netanyahu told Livni that they
should try out Qanother creative idea.Q The media reported that the
only Kadima leader who is interested in joining the Likud-led
coalition is Transportation Minister Shaul Mofaz. HaQaretz reported
that the right-wing parties have softened their stances before their
talks with Likud.
Leading media reported that PM Ehud Olmert suspended Amos Gilad, who
heads the Defense Ministry's political-security bureau, from his
position as negotiator with Egypt and indirectly with Hamas. Gilad
had criticized OlmertQs conduct in the matter of the negotiations,
in particular the issue of Gilad ShalitQs release.
On Sunday The Jerusalem Post reported that two visiting congressmen
-Q Brian Baird (D-WA) and Keith Ellison (D-MN) -- told the newspaper
that banning lentils and pasta from Gaza does not help the cause of
peace.
The Jerusalem Post, HaQaretz, and Israel Radio reported that the
human rights group Amnesty International called on the U.S. to stop
weapons sales to Israel and on all countries to impose an arms
embargo on both Israel and the Palestinians. The media cited the
Foreign Ministry as saying that AmnestyQs report ignores the fact
that Hamas is a terrorist organization that is so recognized by the
U.S., the EU, and other countries.
The media reported that IranQs nuclear reactor at Bushehr will
become active this week.
Media reported that Yisrael Beiteinu officials have launched a
public relations campaign to tell the U.S., Europe, and the Arab
world that there is nothing to fear from Avigdor Lieberman's
initiative to add an oath of allegiance to Israel's Citizenship Law.
Israel's ambassador to Italy, Gideon Meir, warned the Foreign
Ministry that Arab countries are conducting a campaign to demonize
Lieberman in Europe. Yisrael Beiteinu's PR efforts are being
spearheaded by Israel's former ambassador to the U.S., Daniel
Ayalon, who is number seven on the party's Knesset list. The
right-wing party is the third largest faction in the new Knesset,
following Kadima and Likud. In two weeks, Ayalon is to take Yisrael
Beiteinu's case to the U.S. with the number two on the list, Uzi
Landau, and number 12, Hamad Amar, who is Druze. Avigdor Lieberman
met yesterday with U.S. Senator Joseph Lieberman. The Yisrael
Beiteinu chairman said it was important to act quickly against
Iran's nuclear program. "If we want a peace process we have to work
first against Iran," he told the Senator.
Yesterday The Jerusalem Post quoted State Department Acting Deputy
Spokesman Gordon Duguid as saying that the U.S. remained dedicated
to a two-state solution and that it would continue to work for this
goal regardless of who is in office in Israel.
Maariv quoted a senior Israel defense source as saying that U.S.
special envoy George Mitchell will follow up doings in the
territories and that he will not put up with excuses. The source
was quoted as saying that MitchellQs bureau in Israel will be
ObamaQs long arm.
Leading media reported that yesterday Palestinian militants in Gaza
fired two mortar rounds at IDF soldiers near the border. Meanwhile,
Egypt yesterday opened its Rafah border crossing with Gaza to let
students, third-country residents, and medical patients stranded in
the Strip cross the usually closed border. Also yesterday, the
media quoted Gaza medics as saying that five Palestinians were found
dead in a smuggling tunnel under the border with Egypt.
Over the weekend the media reported that a rocket fired from Lebanon
struck northern Israel on Saturday, lightly wounding five people and
prompting Israel to respond with a brief artillery barrage.
The media reported on ongoing Fatah-Hamas reconciliation talks.
Yesterday The Jerusalem Post quoted a PA official as saying over the
weekend that the Obama administration has given the PA a Qgreen
lightQ to talk to Hamas about forming a Palestinian unity
government.
HaQaretz quoted French Jewish leader Laurence Borot as saying
yesterday that Elie Wiesel and a number of other high-profile Jewish
leaders will take part in demonstrations in Geneva against the
UN-sponsored Durban Review Conference. The governments of Israel
and Canada are so far the only ones to officially declare a boycott
of the meeting. HaQaretz quoted Richard Heideman, a
Washington-based lawyer and honorary president of B'nai B'rith, as
saying that the chances that President Obama will boycott a
conference against racism are slim.
Makor Rishon-Hatzofe reported that rabbis and imams in the U.S. have
embarked on a campaign to prevent anti-Jewish and anti-Muslim
activities.
The media reported that protests by Israeli Christians over the
weekend against a segment of a Channel 10-TV talk show last week
prompted PM Olmert to apologize to the Christian community at
yesterdayQs cabinet meeting. Olmert was referring to the storm of
protest over a skit on the late-night talk show hosted by Lior
Shlein, called "Like a Virgin." Following Olmert's statement, the
Vatican released an official statement noting that the skit
desecrated the sanctity of Mary and Jesus, and that it was a "vulgar
and offensive act of intolerance." The Vatican also said it
regretted that such an attack was directed against Mary and Jesus,
"children of Israel." Olmert also called on tennis player Andy Ram
to boycott the Dubai tournament, for which the UAE has granted him a
visa.
Maariv reported that Olmert, DM Ehud Barak, and IDF Chief of Staff
Lt. Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi are being sued for 183 million shekels
(around $44 million) at the Nazareth District Court over an IDF
shelling that resulted in the deaths of 11 members of a Gazan family
in the Jabalya refugee camp during Operation Cast lead.
Yediot reported that Morris Talansky is expected to return to Israel
in a month to testify in the affair of OlmertQs cash envelopes.
Yediot reported that Qhundreds of thousandsQ of non-Jewish
immigrants became Israeli citizens under the Law of Return over the
past decade.
Leading media reported that Arnold (Arnie) Zaler, who fled to
Jerusalem last March to escape 30 counts of fraud in Colorado, has
flown back to the U.S. and turned himself in after having allegedly
scammed numerous Israelis during his 11 months here.
The media reported on the death yesterday at 61 of Dan Scemama,
reporter, editor, and Israel TV news anchor. During the First
Lebanon War, he bared the discontent of IDF soldiers. In 2003
Scemama entered Iraq secretly with reporter Boaz Bismuth to cover
the first stages of the war, but was expelled by American forces.

¶1. U.S.-Israel Relations:
--------------------------
Summary:
--------
Giora Eiland, former Director of the National Security Council,
wrote in the mass-circulation, pluralist Yediot Aharonot: QThe most
important component of Israeli policy on Iran depends on our ability
to persuade the U.S. to make concessions to Russia (and China) on
other issues, since the Iranian issue is more important.
Block Quotes:
-------------
"Enlist Obama"
Giora Eiland, former Director of the National Security Council,
wrote in the mass-circulation, pluralist Yediot Aharonot (2/22):
QThe Israeli premier will be making a mistake if he makes do merely
with rejecting the American position and biding his time. The right
thing to do is to persuade the U.S. administration to reassess its
fundamental premises. The meeting between Netanyahu and Obama needs
to be held after people who work under the President are persuaded
that it would be worthwhile holding an Israeli-American dialogue to
clarify the fundamental premises prior to renewing political
negotiations.... A necessary precondition in persuading Russia [to
stop IranQs nuclear program] is American willingness to be
forthcoming with Russia on other issues. The most important
component of Israeli policy on Iran depends on our ability to
persuade the U.S. to make concessions to Russia (and China) on other
issues, since the Iranian issue is more important. The differences
between Israel and Obama's United States are differences on two
other issues, Syria and Lebanon. The two leaders must not be
permitted to meet until a serious dialogue is held between Obama's
staff (which is already up and working) and Netanyahu's staff, which
hasn't been defined yet.
-----------------------------------
¶2. Aftermath of Israeli Elections:
-----------------------------------
Summary:
--------
Veteran journalist and anchor Dan Margalit wrote in the independent
Israel Hayom: QIf the right wing government is successful, Kadima
will have much cause to regret that it is not also clipping the
coupon.
Senior columnist Nahum Barnea wrote on page one of the
mass-circulation, pluralist Yediot Aharonot: QIf [Livni] is
convinced that Netanyahu is doomed to failure, it would be best for
her to serve the country in the opposition.
Block Quotes:
-------------
¶I. "An Illogical Refusal"
Veteran journalist and anchor Dan Margalit wrote in the independent
Israel Hayom (2/23): QLet us suppose that Netanyahu is interested in
continuing the peace process but he has no majority to do this
unless he has the backing of Kadima or Labor. So what should be
done? Should he be denied maneuvering ability across the
international scene simply in order to punish him for having won the
election? It is true that Kadima and Labor should not join the
government at any price. There is no real thing as Qany price.
But if Netanyahu is willing and interested in paying a hefty price
in the government's guidelines and its conduct in order to get Livni
and/or Barak into his coalition, they have no moral right to refuse
to discuss this.... If the right wing government is successful,
Kadima will have much cause to regret that it is not also clipping
the coupon; and if this government fails, Kadima is destined to be
remembered for the entire next Knesset as the party that turned a
cold shoulder to an entire nation at a critical moment of its
history.
II. "Free Is Completely Alone"
Senior columnist Nahum Barnea wrote on page one of the
mass-circulation, pluralist Yediot Aharonot (2/23): QIf we assume
for a moment that [Netanyahu and Livni] have something to talk
about, the second question immediately arises: Is Netanyahu capable
of betraying his partners on the Right? Shamir and Sharon betrayed
their right wing partners without difficulty. They said that they
preferred the national interest to promises given under duress.
Netanyahu, despite the image of crook that has been pinned on him
throughout the years, or perhaps because of this image, will find it
difficult to betray them. A broad government can only justify its
existence if it is as lean as possible. Netanyahu will have to
recognize his limitations: He cannot bring his friends into this
bed. Livni will also have to recognize her limitations: One does
not come to such a bed to jump out of it at the first opportunity.
If she is convinced that Netanyahu is doomed to failure, it would be
best for her to serve the country in the opposition.
---------
¶3. Iran:
---------
Summary:
--------
Military correspondent Amos Harel wrote on page one of the
independent, left-leaning HaQaretz: QFrom Israel's perspective,
President Barack Obama is a key player in the Iranian drama.
The conservative, independent Jerusalem Post editorialized:
Q[Containment] is certainly not a viable QPlan BQ Qto the prospect
of a failed engagement policy. And engagement, while arguably worth
a try, is no substitute for the kind of sanctions that could yet
prevent Iran from having a nuclear weapons capacity that threatens
far more than the Middle East.
Block Quotes:
-------------
"Israel Is Waiting for ObamaQs Lead"
Military correspondent Amos Harel wrote on page one of the
independent, left-leaning HaQaretz (2/23): QFrom Israel's
perspective, President Barack Obama is a key player in the Iranian
drama. Although Obama has more urgent things on his agenda -- first
and foremost among them the rehabilitation of the U.S. economy --
Iran will be his first major foreign-policy test. Israel regards
Obama's decision to talk to Tehran about its nuclear program as a
done deal. What it is trying to do, in a low-profile way, is to
impact the way the Americans reach the point of dialogue.... When
and if talks fail, Israel would expect the U.S. to head an
international move for immediate and harsher sanctions, this time
effectively involving Russia, China and India. The assumption is
that Obama will find it easier than Bush to urge the world to
pressure Iran, especially after he shows he has taken dialogue as
far as it can go. Israel would prefer for the Americans to
condition their talks with Iran on freezing uraniQ enrichment
during the talks.
II. QObamaQs Plan B?
The conservative, independent Jerusalem Post editorialized (2/23):
QAs part of a policy of containment, there is talk of a US
declaration that an attack on the Jewish state would be viewed as an
attack against the United States. How credible would that be? To
undermine just such a pledge, Iran could surreptitiously transfer a
nuclear device to Hizbullah-controlled Lebanon or to Hamastan.
Pakistan, the only other Muslim state to go nuclear, proliferated to
Iran. Tehran could be expected to carry on the tradition. In
fact, containment may simply not apply to an apocalyptic messianic
regime. It is certainly not a viable QPlan BQ Qto the prospect of a
failed engagement policy. And engagement, while arguably worth a
try, is no substitute for the kind of sanctions -- a complete
blockade, for instance -- that could yet prevent Iran from having a
nuclear weapons capacity that threatens far more than the Middle
East.
------------
¶4. Mideast:
------------
Summary:
--------
Military correspondent Amos Harel wrote on page one of the
independent, left-leaning HaQaretz: QWashington, under Barack
Obama's administration, is liable to be more attentive to the idea
of an Israel-Syrian agreement.
Block Quotes:
-------------
"From Gaza to Damascus"
Military correspondent Amos Harel wrote on page one of the
independent, left-leaning HaQaretz (2/23): QEven if the Hamas
government in Gaza is deterred from another military conflict, it is
strong enough to prevent the Palestinian Authority-led government in
the West Bank from making the concessions necessary to reach a deal
with Israel. The chances look more promising on the Syrian track.
Syria's path to its goals passes through the United States, and for
that it needs Israel. Washington, under Barack Obama's
administration, is liable to be more attentive to the idea of an
Israel-Syrian agreement. A unity government in Israel may be the
only realistic course by which to strive for political progress in
the coming years.
