Comments on: Casualty of war: a genuine debate on who we want to be http://blogs.timesofisrael.com/another-casualty-of-war-the-debate-on-who-we-want-to-be/ The Marketplace of Ideas Mon, 20 May 2013 15:16:41 +0300 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 By: John Yorke http://blogs.timesofisrael.com/another-casualty-of-war-the-debate-on-who-we-want-to-be/#comment-108294 John Yorke Fri, 23 Nov 2012 14:43:32 +0000 http://blogs.timesofisrael.com/?p=81408#comment-108294 'Translating the new national consensus for a two-state solution into a palatable agreement is crucial – but success does not entirely depend on Israel. There are many other things that do. That’s the paradox. '

True enough, professor, but the paradox here is not necessarily an insoluble one. There can be other ways of remedying many of the problems this conflict brings us without having any casualties of war whatsoever. Even debating it could then belong in a whole new category if cetain measures could, some day, be taken up.

Now that has got to be a distinct improvement on the way these matters more usually manifest themselves.
