The other war is over Israel's very existence, and in that war right is on Israel's side. The Palestinians and Israelis, he believes are fighting both of these wars simultaneously. After the terror attacks of Sept. 11, America tends to see the conflict in terms of Israel struggling for survival against nihilistic terror. Europe, under the weight of a heady combination of Holocaust guilt, colonial history and acute sensitivity to individual rights, tends to see Israel using force to maintain occupation. The Palestinians have been able to exploit their portrayal of Israel as a cruel occupying power to the hilt — and Israeli officials charge that the United Nations has been a willing accomplice. Literature and rhetoric at the U.N.- sponsored World Conference Against Racism in South Africa last summer was reminiscent of the 1975 resolution deni- grating Zionism as racism — and even of the Nazis' anti-Semitic propaganda. Insidiously, says Israel's deputy foreign minister, Rabbi Michael Melchior, it is not only Israel's presence in the West Bank and Gaza Strip that is being dele- gitimized, but the Jewish state's very right to exist. That feeling now underlies some of the virulently anti-Israel — and occa- sionally anti-Semitic — coverage in the European media. Israeli officials who had hoped that U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan would augur a more evenhanded approach have been disappointed. Israeli officials are convinced that the Jenin fact-finding team, if it does come, will not give them a fair hear- ing. They point to three other U.N. missions in the last two years that issued scathing criticism of Israel, while making virtually no mention of the Palestinian role in the crisis. Can Israel do anything to turn the tide? Barak thinks it can. He argues that Sharon now must put forward a convinc- ing peace plan, or "face the risk of losing - legitimacy." Barak advocates dismantling remote settlements and withdrawing uni- laterally from more than 80 percent of the West Bank and Gaza Strip in order to regain the moral high ground. But that raises a key question: Would a major unilateral move change Israel's international standing in the face of the Palestinians' moral onslaught? Indeed, would a withdrawal even to the pre-1967 lines be enough? Or would Israel just be risking its security to win international sympathy that would prove, in the future, equally evanescent? This is one of the crucial dilemmas facing Israeli politi- cians on the left and right today. For more national news, log on to unutv.jewish.corn
