In 1967 a war was fought that lasted six days. The result of this war was Israel gaining control of the Sinai Peninsula, the Golan Heights, East Jerusalem, the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Tunisia, Morocco, and Algeria were the losers of this war. In his address to the United Nations President Obama noted it was time for the 32 year occupation to end. The President is only half correct; He would like Israel to withdraw from these areas and discontinue the construction of new settlements. I am in 100% disagreement with this statement. Israeli citizens live with the constant threat of acts of terrorism and rockets falling out of the sky onto their homes and businesses. Our President wishes for two equal states co-existing in peace. Unfortunately many of the surrounding Arab nations do not agree with him nor do I. The Palestinian occupation of Israel must end. Let the nations that lost the six day war provide a safe place for these people in their countries. Israel has conceded land and made several accommodations in the pursuit of peace. It is time for the surrounding countries to do the same.
