RON, YOU ARE AN AMAZING GIFT TO HUMANITY AND TO JEWISH PRIDE. YOU ARE ,IN THE SPIRIT OF ABBA EBAN, A GOD-SEND FOR THE JEWISH PEOPLE. YOUR WORDS & YOUR ACTIONS SPEAK VOLUMES TO THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE. ALL JEWS, STAND STRONG BECAUSE OF YOU!

is a very good article that provides important insights into the role and issues the Israeli Ambassador confronts. However, it would be nice to see an honest appraisal of the impact of the creation of a self-determining Palestinian state brought about by an Israeli state cognizant of the traditional Jewish commitment to justice and human rights. I have to believe that such a resolution to the 4.5 million people living under occupation would make the Ambassador's job a lot easier.

brilliant, principled, humorous, fair, a real fighter.
