Herzog uses the expression “the golden path.” which may sound as if he considers his proposal perfect, but the translation is wrong – it is the phrase used for a compromise, the middle ground, and it is imperative at this point, because, as he says, we ARE on the brink of a civil war.
Where are the Arabs, who would benefit by this compromise? On the sidelines, waiting for the civil war. And I am sure their lives would not be improved in any way if this country imploded. It is like Hertzl said in his Altneuland, we complement each other, and we have all greatly benefitted from each others’ society.
So, if there is anyone of influence in any party you can write to, see what you can do to influence him to support this middle road. The president is finally saying something, and it is something we should listen to.
My Arab and Druze friends, please help out! I promise you it will be worth it.
