After Sixty Three Years of Occupation Israel still does not understand
After sixty-three years of occupation and conflict, Israel still does not understand what is the cost of its daily occupation of the Palestinian lands and continues to go in the wrong way to gain temporary security benefits.

by Jeff Pozmantier on September 11, 2011
How do you become just like the Free Soil, Whig-American, Constitutional Union, Populist, Progressive, States’ Rights, Reform and Green parties? You adopt an inflexible focus on a narrow set of issues. You refuse to compromise. You accept that your narrow focus naturally allows a much larger and more broad-based party to simply absorb your issues as their own.
