RIP. He had the most distinctive "Scooooooore!" in the business.

"Scooooooore!
And so did David Ben Gurion, the first Prime Minister of Israel - because it was. The entire prospect of eventual peace and stability requires recognition of two inarguable facts:
1. Arab lands were stolen - Arabs were forcibly removed from their homes, and their land taken - their grievance is entirely legitmate.
2. Israel is now a nation, Israelis are now a people - a people with a nuclear arsenal - and they are going nowhere. Regardless of whether the land was stolen, it is the Israelis land now, just as the land stolen by Americans is American land now, not Indian land.
Until both sides acknowledge and accept these *facts* then there will be nothing resembling peace. And since neither will, it behooves America to pull out and leave both sides to their own devices.
