THINK-ISRAEL features essays, analyses and commentaries that provide context for current events in Israel. We try to make sense of what's going on. The war Islamists are waging against Israel and the West is a top priority.
We have new articles on the Think Israel website. Please take a look. This is what's in the July-August 2009 issue. You can access any article from the home page of http://www.Think-Israel.org by scrolling down to its introduction. This has the advantage of providing context for the article. Or you can go directly to the article by clicking its highlighted area in this email.
This issue, we emphasize two critical threats to Israel: Iran's continuing to build a nuclear bomb and the Obama Administration's insistence on creating a Palestinian state in Biblical Israel (the "West Bank"). As our readers know, Think-Israel has argued that either a 1-state solution or a 2-state solution was a prescription for a 0-state of Israel. The retort usually is: don't you think the Palestinians deserve their own State? To which we reply: If you want them to have another state to add to the existing 20 Arab states and the 57 Muslim states, there are large amounts of underpopulated regions in the 99.9% of the Middle East that the Arabs control. A tiny fraction of that land would provide space for a Palestinian state 10 times the size of Israel. This way, you still have a viable and productive Israel continuing to benefit mankind. And you just might have a functional Palestinian state: "New Palestina."

Pieces for THINK-ISRAEL should be informative and accurate. Fortunately, those of us who are pro-Israel can show our love of Israel without distorting the truth. We don't need to play by the rules laid down by the Arab-favoring media, which distort the news and omit important items of information.
