Honest Look at the Israeli Perspective

This is an excellent dialogue between a hypothetical Israeli & American Jew on issues of Israeli-Diaspora relations, criticism of Israel, Israel's economy and social issues and its conflict with the Palestinians from an Israeli viewpoint most people will not express. I am a formerly American Jew who moved to Israel and so I should be more sympathetic to the American perspective but, in fact, I thought the Israeli perspective was right on target and was glad that Golan had the courage to speak the truth. A must read for Jewish organizational leaders.
