This link provides an interview with an interview with Aaron Klein who disucsses the enemies located within Israel. It was enlightening to watch because it seems like the only ememies who are discussed in this dilemma are those specific groups who were constructed to break down the Israeli state.
I've often thought while reading The Lemon Tree that some of the actions taken by both the Israelis and Palestinians to harm the other group have actually harmed themselves and their ultimate goals.
This video also talks about Hebron and the difficulties that surround this city. Information that was helpful for our current assignment.

Here is a link to a blog put up by Morgan on a different Blog. There are a
number of entries that tie more to your topic than theirs. Enjoy.

Great video, talks exactly about the hebron issues we have been discussing. Interesting how it talks about how the evacuations of palestinians in the west bank can have an affect on the Jewish settlers in Hebron. Also interesting how recently we have thought of Fatah as the moderate group even though this group continues certain types of terrorism through its militant Al Aqusa Martyers brigade that seems to be overlooked, while Hamas is the only group demonized as the "Bad Guys." It then goes on to talk about how the Israeli government was directly negotiating with Hamas and funneling the group money after bombing them in December. Reading about this makes me wonder... in a year or so could times change and Hamas be considered the good Palestinian group and Fatah be demonized. Playing politics is always a sticky game.
