WASHINGTON (JTA) - Crush
terrorists and then make peace.
Through quirks of timing, it’s a
narrative that President Obama and
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
finally can agree on for their upcoming
meeting in Washington.
There remains a critical difference,
however, between the two over what
happens in the next chapter: Keep up
the fight or step out and make peace.
The Obama administration, at least
by default, seems to have embraced
There remains a critical difference,
however, between the two over what
happens in the next chapter: Keep up the
fight or step out and make peace.
Netanyahu’s longtime mantra that the
best way to clear the path to calm is
through the elimination of terrorists.
Within two weeks, the
administration lost both its bloodiest
enemy and its best-known peacemaker:
Osama bin Laden, the terrorist leader,
died at the hands of U.S. soldiers, and

George Mitchell quit his post as the
administration’s lead peace broker for
the Arab-Israeli conflict.
On May 24, Netanyahu will speak
to a joint meeting of Congress, and
the theme is likely to be the threat
of terrorism faced both by Israel and
the United States. He is slated to meet
Friday, May 20, with Obama.
Both leaders are expected to
address this year’s annual American
Israel Public Affairs Committee
conference, which starts May 22.
The conference - the largest
annual Israel-related gathering in the
U.S. capital - comes just weeks after
the announcement of a new unity
government between the Fatah-led
Palestinian Authority and Hamas,
the terrorist group that controls the
Gaza Strip. The Obama and Netanyahu
administrations have made clear that
they believe the reconciliation of the
two Palestinian factions will impede
peace negotiations with Israel.
Meanwhile, the violence Sunday,
May 15, in Israel and on its borders by
Arabs marking the anniversary of what
they call Nakba - the “catastrophe” of
Israel’s birth - appeared to strengthen
Netanyahu’s resolve to stand tough.
“I regret that there are extremists
among Israeli Arabs and in
neighboring countries who have
turned the day on which the State
of Israel was established, the day
on which the Israeli democracy was
established, into a day of incitement,
violence and rage,” he said at the
outset of his weekly Cabinet meeting.
“There is no place for this, for denying
the existence of the State of Israel. No
to extremism and no to violence.”
In a separate statement at the end
of the day, Netanyahu concluded with
a promise and a warning.
“We will continue to defend our
borders and sovereignty,” he said. “We
must regard the reality with open eyes,
and see with what and whom we are
dealing.”
Days earlier, Tom Donilon, Obama’s
national security adviser, had sounded
