Land rights the nub of conflict with Palestinians, Dr M tells Israeli TV.

DARSITA

Peace on the Middle East can come only through SEPARATION - both sides living on different sides of a (mutually acceptable) border.

Ariyamusafir,

Debmey is obviously upset because indirectly Mahathir is criticizing his Bush. It was a fantastic interview and truly Mahathir managed to capture the essence of reason and tolerance. However, I found that Mahathir did not really adequately address this question(which I think was very nicely phrased):-

Q: For Islamic countries, is the negation of Jews a unifying factor? It seems the OIC (Organisation of the Islamic Conference) deals more with Israel and Jews than with human rights in Syria, in Egypt, freedom of the Press, etc. Does the Jewish conspiracy provide instant answers for anything that goes wrong in the Muslim world?

However, Mahathir remains as one of the few persons and Muslim that I respect.

Eh Debmey, Kuan Yew got say anything about Jews or Palestinians specifically ah?

But the problem with the Palestinians is, they don't want a border with Israel, they want Israeldestroyed.
