The debates

Bernard Lewis and Leon Wieseltier vs. Edward Said and Christopher Hitchens



Although I appreciate You bringing this unique presentation of some of the most influential intellectuals on West's perspective of the Middle East in one place - but this is not debate.

They only present their subjective perspective on the situation,
without arguing anything specific.

The one thing they all seem to agree,
is that "the West" has no clue about the Middle East,
and the notion, that almost as if intellectually incapable.

They only present their subjective perspective on the situation,
without arguing anything specific.
Indeed, it was a wimpy debate.

I would love to see a real debate. Both sides at facing tables challenging each other.

I would like to see people like Susan Akram, Rashid Khalidi, Virginia Tilley, Nur Masalha, Ilan Pappe
Noura Erakat, Lamis Deek, Salma Karmi-Ayyoub,Nadia Hijab. Of course there are more but more than a half dozen or so on each side would be unworkable.

Who are some of the people you would want on your side? Just curious.

Indeed, your list of cartoon characters are included in most of your silly YouTube videos.

The question was: What Israelis can handle a debate?

Should I offer a youtube video in response to your YouTube video?

Sure, that would help. Bet you can't post one that is not a PMW or MEMRI.

Why would you need so many?
Frankly I've never heard them make any relevant arguments, that I would need anyone else help me refute. The opinion and information of the average Israeli is much more valid than any of those on your list, who don't even live in the Middle East.

But it doesn't matter, because these anti-Israel activists,
rarely dare participate in any actual debates that are not set up.
With you its quantity over quality, once actual debate starts - you disappear.

Would they dare debate Rabbi Oury Sherky?
Would they dare debate Caroline Glick?
Would they dare debate Yousef Haddad?
Would they dare debate Gadi Taub?

You don't even dare debate me...so give me a break,
an average Yeshivah boy can grill your pseudo-intellectuals before the end of launch break.

I think a civil debate is a great Idea. Rabbi Oury Sherky Is a religious scholar, I am not sure what he could contribute to a non religious conflict. Caroline Glick is very knowledgeable. Yousef Haddad seems a bit shallow. Gadi Taub is interesting but I don't know much about him. You might want to look at Mark Golub.

Yeah I get it, you want to have it both ways,
both claim "the conflict is non-religious" and then use Jesus as "the first Palestinian martyr"
Deny Judaism is anything but a religion, and say the conflict "has nothing to do with Jews"...
...it's clearly self contradictory, in a way that instead reveals the opposite to be true -
the more of this apparent denial, the more it reveals them as your main motives.

As for Rabbi Oury Sherki,
that's exactly what I was saying - the mere suggestion that your pseudo intellectuals get into the same room, let alone dare debate a real intellectual of such caliber intimidates you, instead of actually reaching out to debate such an influential Zionist figure, you begin by mischarechterizing and denying the relevance of his knowledge.

Exactly what I'm talking about,
let's examine by whom the anti-Israel pseudo intellectuals are intimidated,
and wouldn't dare even entertain the thought of debating as "irrelevant":



Rav Cherki was born in Algeria in 1959. His grandfather, Elyezer Cherki, was a Torah scholar and community leader in Algeria, and later in France. Elyezer served as the president of the Zionist Federation of Algeria(Oury Amos Cherki - Wikipedia)

Rav Cherki's father, Hayyim Gedalyah, held a doctorate in economics, and supported his grandfather in his public activities. His mother, Batya Albertin to the House of Steg, was a Holocaust survivor. Her brother, Eddie Steg, was a physician to several French presidents.(אורי שרקי – ויקיפדיה)

I could go on about his expertise in literate and spoken dialects of Arabic,
Latin, Greek, French, Arameic, history, political philosophy etc.
Or about his Davidic family line...you know a Jewish scholar,
a regular Sanhedrin figure, nothing special...

Essentially, if you actually knew anything about his teachers, Judaism or modern Israel,
people like you and your pseudo intellectuals would make sure to not ever
get anywhere near attempting a debate with real intellectual 'grownups'.
Let alone debate one of the leading Jewish scholars of the generation.

I am waiting. My experience has been that the Israelis play the long game in these matters. Israel does not generally advertise its strategy and seldom its stealth-like intentions. There are so many avenues of approach here and behind-the-curtain activities, that it is hard to anticipate the next move of importance and what the value might be in such a debate (risk analysis).

That's an interesting observation.
I would add, that from my perspective as an Israeli,
we're as a nation, intellectually very dynamic and flexible.
On top of that the culture of debate, and individual opinion is top value in Judaism.

The Talmud doesn't decide a single ruling, controversy and synthesis are the name of the game, I'll exaggerate to make a point - no one claims to actually have the correct answer, but they will sure explain the logic, similarity and difference between the different opposing points of view.

In the Torah our forefathers even argue with G-d... and change His mind
That's actually one of the meanings of the name 'Israel'.

Israel's enemies are usually exactly the opposite, they think in great masses and conformity.
Jews are always a minority, naturally Israelis improvise, individuality can't be predicted.

What is there worth debating??? As a country Israel IS & Palestine IS NOT. And as long as Palestinian leadership punishes the Palestinian citizens by not joining with other Arab nations to recognize Israel & work with Israel for a lasting peace that will not change. So, again I ask --- what is there worth debating???

It lets people know there are two sides.

What is the holdup for another State in historic Palestine?
Opportunities given Opportunities rejected. Go figure Palestinian leadership.
I just read on Wikipedia that the State of Palestine is officially recognized by the UN. They merely need "free trade" agreements with their neighbors.
Hey fine. I even strongly support Palestinian self determination. No longer should Israel have to provide for them only to be condemned by the Palestinian leadership.

The KEY here is that after A/RES/67/19, wherein the UN decided "to accord Palestine non-member observer State status in the United Nations," Palestine was identified as a State and could its authorities be identified as a government.

Under the Montevideo Convention (1933) there are criteria:

Article 1
The state as a person of international law should possess the following qualifications:

a) a permanent population;​
b) a defined territory;​
c) government; and​
d) capacity to enter into relations with the other states.​

SO, up to the point when A/RES/67/19 was passed, Palestine was NOT recognized by the UN as a STATE. However, recognition is not required to be a state. Recognition is only required for membership in the UN. Once an entity achieves the four criteria - it is technically a state. The trouble is the matter of territory and government. Where in the territory does the Ramallah Government have full control? I consider that Area "A"...

There are a wide variety of views regarding the legal status of the State of Palestine, both among the states of the international community and among legal scholars, but there is a general consensus that the State of Palestine is de jure sovereign.[1][2][3][4] It is a non-member observer state at the United Nations since November, 2012.[5][6] As of 31 July 2019, a total of 138 countries recognize it.--https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_status_of_the_State_of_Palestine

Is Palestine a state? It depends on who you ask.

Palestine was created as a state in 1924. There has been a lot of smoke blown at the issue but there has been nothing concrete.

So, who has the authority to dismantle a foreign state?

Every State has the duty to refrain from the threat or use of force to violate the existing international boundaries of another State or as a means of solving international disputes, including territorial disputes and problems concerning frontiers of States. In the case of the claims made by the Hostile Arab Palestinians, the applicable international boundaries were established at the conclusion of the 1948 War for Independence. These boundaries were outlined in the two Treaties Israel has with Egypt and Jordan (supra).​
Article 11. Means of expressing consent to be bound by a treatyPg 39 International Law Handbook © United Nations, 2017
The consent of a State to be bound by a treaty may be expressed by signature, exchange of instruments constituting a treaty, ratification, acceptance, approval or accession, or by any other means if so agreed.​
Article 11. Boundary regimes, Law of TreatiesPg 60 International Law Handbook © United Nations, 2017

(a) a boundary established by a treaty; or​
(b) obligations and rights established by a treaty and relating to the regime of a boundary.​
