Israel 64 years young // Peace & Game Theory // Peace: Negotiations - or "Lose-Lose"? // Al-Durra again?

We all are bombarded with fast changing daily news the whole day.

Come to this website for different, more lasting 'news' and talks about Israel.

Independence day is over. But see again this Birthday Greetings for Israel 64
The Jewish people made its 'Exodus' from ancient Egypt ("Mitzrayim" in Hebrew) 3,500 years ago, in order to go to Kana'an - the land of Israel today. Relative to this, modern Israel of 64 is very young. Look at young Israel's unbelievable human, social, economic and scientific achievements: in fifteen lines and a short (2:39) video

The Truth about the Al-Durra case, AGAIN? - Take-A-Pen was there!

The Palestinian Authority's LOSE-LOSE Solution - Letter to the Washington Post

"Israel's Conflict as GAME THEORY" - A Nobel Prize Laureate's Advice for the PEACE Talks
For any future negotiations with the Palestinians we agree with Nobel-prize laureate Professor Robert Israel Aumann that: "Sadly, Israel ignores the basic principles of game theory. If Israel would be wise enough to behave according to those principles, her political status and her security status would improve substantially."
               - We all are glad that Gilad Shalit is at home! - But at what price?

To TakeAPen it seems that in the humanitarian but quite irrationally concluded Gilad Shalit deal, releasing 1000 convicted Hamas terror related prisoners, many of them with lot of blood on their hands, PM Netanyahu failed again to apply Game Theory's principles.

The Guardian's Assault on Peace in the Middle East
Never has a British broadsheet so openly served the agenda of Middle Eastern extremism. Readers can no longer doubt The Guardian's affinity for Hamas.

Re: Reconsidering the Goldstone Report – April 1, 2011

Dear Sir; Justice Goldstone’s present 'Reconsideration' is a courageous first step, but he has to do much more to repair the enormous damage his Report's twisted methodology and the undeserved credit he granted to Hamas-related sources caused to Israel.
Also, he ignored certain evidence. In 2009 we, Take-A-Pen, an international volunteer organization, submitted two well-researched and fully documented Submissions to the Goldstone-committee, with copies to him personally. He acknowledged receipt, so he had this evidence in hand, but he never used it in his report - what seems as suppression of evidence. .

Who Really Is Erdogan?

Take A Pen's recent editorial about Erdogan and his uncanny resemblance to Ahmadinejad. A moderate European leader by appearance and a radical violent Muslim by actions.

Peace activists or terrorists?

The Flotilla was not a peace convoy, the violence was a well-prepared provocation. Turkey and Erdogan himself supported the Islamist IHH organization, whose fighters attacked soldiers, dragging the Mavi Marmara ship to a lethal fighting
