Netanyahu in Washinghton, peace mission on the river.
by Milota Sidorova
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is currently on a “world tour”. These days he is expected to meet French president Nicolas Sarkozy in Paris. Israel has received an invitation to join 30 member company of Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). Netanyahu is scheduled formally accept the membership on Thursday. Later that day he will meet Sarkozy and Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. His journey continues on Canadian ground next day and as claimed he has received last-minute invitation to White House. In Washinghton he will meet president Obama on Tuesday. The invitation was personally delivered by White House Chief in Staff! Rahm Emanuel who is currently on private visit in Israel. US invitation to the first man of the country is perceived as a sign of easing ties and conflict between two allies. Israel provoked disagreement of the international community and open frustration and conflict in US dimplomacy. Israeli officials approved expansion of the new settlement on the East bank of Jordan river. The area is considered as an occupied zone, therefore the new settlement there is illegal. Although this area is claimed by Palestinians as their future capital, Israel decided to ignore that and sink the third party peace talks with the other side. US convicted this step which later on provoked Israeli politicians as well. However, there has been political silence over this incident last weeks. The West bank si still closed for Palestinians. But today 68 years old jazz musician along with eight more volunteers will risk arrest and the jail, by an attempt to break Israeli blocade on the water. They w! ill try to sail with humanitarian supplies to the other side. ! Sso far, Israeli officials have ordered to stop the boats and arrest them. The supplies however will be checked and sent to Red Cross to deliver them to Palestinian side. What is probably the most important that the musician gave up his Israeli citizenship and started to help the “enemy”. From this point of view, today lake mission means much more for the peace talks between hundred years enemies. Than official Natanyahu's official visit. Even if he ends up in the jail, he will become a hero. Hero for everyone, because the best solutions do come from individuals who live the reality on the bottom of the social system.
