This is vital to a peace process, and vital to keeping Israel a democracy in a sea of religious fanatics.

I know most of you probably haven't been to Israel, but it's a very happening place, and not at all like many people visualize a place in the Middle East to look.

Pakistan’s president, Pervez Musharraf is finally stepping down.

The Jerusalem Post just reported,

The European Union on Monday deplored Israel's plans to build some 400 new homes in the Givat Ze'ev settlement as a threat to peace efforts.
