Doug Feith on Israel - WSJ

I am automatically opposed to anything by Doug Feith, one of the Jewish neo-con hawks who orchestrated the invasion of Iraq after 9/11,  This WSJ op-ed on Israel is no exception.  His op-ed basically says the occupied territories have the same status as the original Israeli border set by the UN, because the Palestinians reject both the original Israeli state and the later occupied territories.  If all Jews and Israelis hold this view, it is no wonder that Palestinians continue their opposition.  To Feith, accepting Israel’s original borders justifies accepting the later, expanded borders.  Feith sees no reason for negotiations.  He seems to think Israel is entitled to all the land it can take.
