This Is Not An Arab speaking , This Is An Israeli Speaking

Please read this essay by Uri Avnery at The Palestine Chronicle regarding Bibi's speech about Peace in the Middle East , I love this part so much :

And indeed, that was Ben-Gurion’s method. Before every provocation he would declare that “our hands are extended for peace”, adding conditions that he knew were totally unacceptable to the other side. Thus an ideal situation (for him) was created: The world saw Israel as a peace-loving country, while the Arabs looked like serial peace-killers. Our secret weapon is the Arab refusal, it used to be joked in Jerusalem at the time.This week, Netanyahu wheeled out the same old trick.

I agree on what Uri has said , this speech is for Barack Obama and the Israeli right wing only ,in the end it is just talk that did not and won't change anything on the ground.
