Excerpt:
The ‘Middle East conflict’ is mostly discussed in two incorrect ways: historically and morally. Realpolitik has nothing to do with either. The question of who the ‘good’ and ‘bad’ guys are, as well as who has done more harm in the course of the conflict, is unanswerable. The historical debate is highly interesting but equally worthless. The history of the Jews is certainly very special and full of burning questions, which are interesting, sometimes highly remarkable, but have no place in political debates.
