The Model Moves to the Mainstream
Clayton Swisher, working for Al Jazeera in Jerusalem, filed a new report on Israeli opinions of Obama yesterday. It is wonderful to see the model that Max Blumenthal and I recently began using to explain the Israeli mindset make it into mainstream press outlets. I hope to see more videos like this from Clayton during his stay.
Below is a video about settlement opinion on the same streets as the one above. I made it with Antony Loewenstein and David Jacobus this past July.

I think you have somewhat of a point, Avi, but not entirely. I mean, Israel is an immigrant society, so of course many Israelis are born in other countries. But yes, I also think that American Aloyim have more hawkish and rejectionist positions to the peace process than do native born Israelis. Ok, that´s also too sweeping of a statement, but it would be interesting to know what the opinions of Israelis is, who have lived through the 80s and 90s in Israel, during the possibility of a peace settlement, and then it´s falling away.
