In a startling new development, Henry Siegman, the former executive director of the American Jewish Congress, stated recently that Prime Minister Netanyahu of Israel is the main impediment to peace. He urged Palestinians to affirm Israel’s legitimacy, provided Israel is prepared to affirm the legitimacy of a Palestinian state along the pre-’67 borders." 

Acccording to Siegman, Netanyahu’s cabinet appointments exposes a troubling overt racism. Consider the following: 

Justice Minister, Ayelet Shaked, called for the “destruction of the entire Palestinian people, including its elderly women, cities, villages, property and infrastructure." 

Foreign minister, Hotovely, sent out instructions to all Israeli ambassadors to advise governments that the Bible confirmed that God was in the real estate business and promised all of Palestine to the Jews. 

Miri Regev, the minister of culture, ‘discouraged’ the artistic community from creating art that insults the state of Israel. 

Deputy Minister of Defense, Dahan and his boss called for separating Palestinians and Jews on separate busses. 

Silvan Shalom, the new chief of peace negotiations, has been on record for opposing a two-state solution. 

Dore Gold, the former Israeli ambassador to the United Nations, currently the new director of the Foreign Ministry has a lifelong record of total opposition to a Palestinian state. 

Siegman stated that the only logical way forward was for Palestinians to bypass the Netanyahu government and seek redress from the United Nations Security Council utilizing the various resolutions as the foundation of a new peace process.
