Land for Peace? Is this the way for Peace in the Middle East?
Eliyahu Touger entire book "Eyes Upon The Land" The Territorial Integrity of Israel: A Life Threatening Concern is Based on the Public Statements and Writings of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson and is now available free to read in its entirety on the web at http://www.sichosinenglish.org/books/eyes-upon-the-land/index.html
A presentation of the Lubavitcher Rebbe's views on the Jewish people's connection with the Holy Land, the Arab-Israeli conflict, and the so-called "Land for Peace" issue it is a MUST READ book.
Here is an excerpt:
"In recent years, it has become common to think of the solution of the Arab-Israeli conflict in terms of the formula, "land for peace." Phrasing the question in that manner produces a ready answer, for regardless of our love for the Land of Israel, there is no question that all sacrifices necessary should be made to achieve peace.
But phrasing the question in that manner is not only an oversimplification; it distorts the issues at hand. Why should conceding land be considered a step toward peace?"
