Israel at 50

         I agree with your editorial " Israel at 50 " that this Jewish

    state is an inspiration for any people or individuals fighting to

    to survive. It literally has arisen from the ashes of the Holocaust-

    which was no myth. It is also -despite its Jewish identity - a bastion

    of  Western Civilization in a  region dominated by the dark influence

    of the fanatical Islamic faith:

                  Hey, hey is that the Moslem Way ?

                     How many heads will you cut off

                         Today ?

          But how can this nation finally find peace ?  As your editorial

    points out  a permanent state of war is " a condition that no nation

    can sustain indefinitely . "

              I dare suggest that the Jewish state must gradually dissolve

    its strictly Jewish identity. It should evolve into nation very much

    like the United States. Most of us know how influential Christianity

    is here . Many of us -wrongly - think we are a Christian nation.

         Separation of Church and State makes genuine DEMOCRACY possible.

       In romance novels we find that opposites often attract. There may

    be many so called Jews in Israel today who are really half Arab .

         If a Jewish man can fall in love with an Arab woman and live

    happily ever after, what does that tell the state of Israel ?

         May I recommend that the future prime minister of Israel be

    one of those " bastard " Jews, with a nice Arab mother . There

    are a lot of NICE ARABS you know ?

         Like the legendary Solomon , a bastard prime minister- half

    Arab, half Jew - will know instinctively how to DO THE RIGHT THING !

        Shalom !
