  Hi Cheryl,
  The U.S.-China dialogue on Latin American issues began in 2006 during the Bush administration, led by Tom Shannon,
  and recurred in 2007 and 2008. My trip to China will be the first such dialogue to take place during the Obama
  administration
  China is
  now a top-three trading partner of many Latin American countries and is in fact the number one trading partner of Brazil,
  as well as being a donor member of the Inter-American Development Bank and observer at the Organization of American
  States.
  The purpose of these talks is three-fold: to inform the Chinese of our policy priorities in the Americas, to learn about their
  views on the region, and to explore potential areas of cooperation in the areas of economic and social development. In
  addition to the formal meetings with government officials, I will also be meeting with Latin American diplomats, Chinese
  academics and private sector groupings.
  Our dialogue with China on Latin America is one of three sub-dialogues that are part of the broader U.S.-China strategic
  framework to ensure that the bilateral relationship is positive, cooperative, and comprehensive. The others are the China-
  Africa talks that AF hosted in Washington last month and the dialogue on South and Central Asia.
  Best, Arturo

  DRAFT STATEMENT BY SECRETARY CLINTON
  Urging Iran to Respect the Fundamental Freedoms of its Citizens
  The United States is deeply concerned that Iran continues to deny its citizens their civil rights, as well as to intimidate
  and detain those Iranians who seek to hold their government accountable and who stand up for the rights of their
  fellow citizens. We remain troubled by the case of Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani, who garnered international attention
  for her verdict of death by stoning. While the Iranian government later stated she would not face execution by stoning,
  her fate has been left unclear. We are also troubled by reports that Ebrahim Hamidi, an 18-year old charged with
  homosexuality, faces imminent execution despite the fact that he is currently without legal representation. Neither of
  their cases have proceeded with the transparency or due process enshrined in Iran's own constitution and their lawyer,
  Mohammad Mostafaei, felt that he had no other choice than to flee Iran after he had been questioned by authorities
  and his family members had been detained.
  We are also concerned about the fate of Iranians who are in danger of imminent execution for exercising their right to
  free expression after the June 2009 elections, including Jafar Kazemi, Mohammad Haj Aghaei, and Javad Lan.
  The United States urges the Iranian government to halt these executions in accordance with its international obligations
  to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, and calls for the immediate release of all political prisoners
  and imprisoned human rights defenders. The United States will continue to stand with people all around the world who
  seek to exercise their universal rights and to speak out in defense of human liberties.

  American VIP humiliated at airport
  Prof. Donna Shalala, Clinton's secretarrof health, arrives in Israel in order to fight academic
  boycott against Israel, claims she was held at Ben-Gurion Airport just because she has Arab
  last name
  Itamar Eichner
  This is not how she imagined her visit to Israel. Prof. Donna Shalala, who served as the US Secretary
  of Health and Human Services for eight years under Clinton and is currently the president of the
  University of Miami, was held for two-and-a-half hours at Ben Gurion Airport during which she
  underwent a humiliating security debriefing because of her Arab last name — all this despite the fact
  that her hosts notified the airport ahead of time that she is a VIP.
  The fact that Shalala arrived in Israel as part of an official delegation of the heads of universities
  fighting against the academic boycott against the Jewish State also seemed not to help her.
  Shalala, 69, was born in the US to Lebanese immigrant parents. She is considered a true friend of
  Israel and has visited the country many times in the past.
  She recently arrived in Israel as a guest of the American Jewish Congress with the objective of
  increasing collaboration among universities in Israel, the US, and the Palestinian Authority. During
  their visit, members of the delegation met with President Shimon Peres, Deputy Foreign Minister Danny
  Ayalon, and Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad.

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770414 Date: 08/31/2015
  The official visit ended on July 12, but Shalala stayed on for another two days for a private visit.
  The AJC claims that it notified the Israel Airports Authority of Shalala's VIP status as is customary
  prior to her departure. However, the IAA claims that it has no record on file for Shalala prior to her
  arrival.
  When Shalala arrived at the airport, she was not recognized as a VIP and was even afforded what
  she claims to be "special" treatment because of her Arab last name. She claims she was held for two-
  and-a-half hours during which she was asked invasive and humiliating personal questions. Despite
  the delay, she managed to board the flight to the US. Officials who spoke with her said she was
  deeply offended by the treatment she received.
  An IAA spokesperson reported in response: "This incident is unknown to us. We performed a
  thorough check. There was no contact made with us or any other body. No unusual events were
  registered at Ben Gurion Airport, and we have no idea about this incident, which, from our
  perspective, never happened."
  IAA officials said that root of the problem is that the host organizations don't bother accompanying
  their guests to the airport.
  The incident was raised Wednesday during a discussion convened by Deputy Foreign Ministry
  Ayalon to discuss treatment of VIPs at Ben Gurion Airport. During the discussion, it was agreed that a
  new protocol will be drafted that will keep incidents to a minimum.
  Shalala preferred not to comment on the article.

  Subject: women and reconciliation
  In light of our discussion re. women and reconciliation, I wanted to alert you to a recent incident that has
  generated a great deal of concern among Afghan women. Two days ago, a local Taliban commander executed a
  pregnant widow for having an "illicit affair" (the man was not punished). While there are varying accounts of
  the incident, the authorities have confirmed that she was shot in the head several times after being flogged up to
  200 times in Qadis district (which is completely under the control of the Taliban) of Badghis.Government
  authorities have condemned the incident, noting that due process was not carried out.
  In meetings today, Afghan women leaders, including some who in the past accepted reconciliation as inevitable,
  expressed both fear and bitterness over the incident and shared concerns that such brutality against
  women would be far more prevalent if reconciliation occurred. They noted frustration about the lack of
  transparency in the government's reintegration and reconciliation processes. A number of women questioned
  what the government is willing to bargain in order to achieve a peace settlement and the extent to which it is
  prepared to roll women's rights back to appease the Taliban. They noted that women's rights are treated as a
  nuisance by the government leadership rather than as an important element of the peace process.
  Melanne also met with President Karzai and was dismayed when he told her that there weren't any women's
  names on the list of potential candidates for the High Peace Council. Stanekzai is said to have come up with a
  list of 300 names (FRIC reports that women were on the list) that has been wittled down to about 30 names.
  While the list is far from being finalized, President Karzai does not currently appear to be prioritizing women's
  inclusion in the body--despite the fact that the APRP commits to it. Afghan women have called for 20% to 30%
  inclusion of women in the High Peace Council and the Joint Secretariat. We will be meeting with Stanekzai
  trmw and raise this issue.

  Dear Cheryl:
  Jean-Louis and I had a lengthy conversation today covering a broad range of subjects relating to your interest in
  supporting textile and apparel activity in Haiti. He has subsequently shared with me a number of specific
  materials on the Haiti project, including an email of yours which highlights the objectives of the project and a
  suggested timeline, as well as the business proposal made by Hansoll. When I digest these latter materials, I
  will consider myself in a much better position to make responsive recommendations to you.
  As I communicated to Jean-Louis, I am happy to be helpful to you and the State Department on this project. I
  can make myself available a couple of days a month for meetings and pretty much on an as needed basis for
  phone conversations. I retain my affiliation with Warburg Pincus, the global private equity firm. This requires
  my presence in New York (generally) a couple of days a week. As I think you know, I am also Chairman of the
  Board of Campbell Soup Company. This entails three or four days a month.
  Fortunately, I am not really "retired." This means that I have some flexibility in how I spend my time. You
  should feel free to call on me.
  I retain my interest in and connections with the retail and apparel industry. While I am far from an expert on
  sourcing and production of apparel and textiles, I have some relevant experience and many friends who will do
  their best to keep me from looking foolish.

  Dear Cheryl:
  Jean-Louis and I had a lengthy conversation today covering a broad range of subjects relating to your interest in
  supporting textile and apparel activity in Haiti. He has subsequently shared with me a number of specific materials on
  the Haiti project, including an email of yours which highlights the objectives of the project and a suggested timeline, as
  well as the business proposal made by Hansoll. When I digest these latter materials, I will consider myself in a much
  better position to make responsive recommendations to you.
  As I communicated to Jean-Louis, I am happy to be helpful to you and the State Department on this project. I can make
  myself available a couple of days a month for meetings and pretty much on an as needed basis for phone conversations.
  I retain my affiliation with Warburg Pincus, the global private equity firm. This requires my presence in New York
  (generally) a couple of days a week. As I think you know, I am also Chairman of the Board of Campbell Soup Company.
  This entails three or four days a month.
  Fortunately, I am not really "retired." This means that I have some flexibility in how I spend my time. You should feel
  free to call on me.
  I retain my interest in and connections with the retail and apparel industry. While I am far from an expert on sourcing
  and production of apparel and textiles, I have some relevant experience and many friends who will do their best to keep
  me from looking foolish.
  I will be in Baltimore and Washington for the next few days. Either you or Jean-Louis should feel comfortable in calling
  on my cell phone In the interim, I will review these materials and speak again with Jean-Louis.
  Regards,
  Paul

  PORT-AU-PRINCE (AP) - Prosecutors say a U.S. missionary should spend 6 months in prison for trying to take 33 children
  out of the country following the January 12 earthquake. Prosecutor Sonel Jean-Francois told a court it is clear Laura
  Silsby knew she had broken Haitian law. The prosecutor spoke after the Idaho woman testified on the first day of her
  trial.

  > By Nicole Gaouette and Flavia Krause-Jackson
  > Aug. 11 (Bloomberg) -- Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the U.S. Senate must vote to ratify a treaty with Russia to
  cut nuclear weapons when lawmakers return in September from their monthlong recess.
  > "Our national security is at risk," Clinton said in a statement to reporters at the State Department in Washington. "It's
  been more than eight months since we've had inspectors on the ground in Russia" who give "a vital window into
  Russia's arsenal."
  > The agreement, which is a priority for President Barack Obama, would replace the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, or
  START, that expired in December and left the former Cold War rivals with no way to verify each other's nuclear
  weapons.
  > Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts, chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, delayed a vote by the panel to
  round up more bipartisan support. The extra time may help get more Republicans on board, he said. Democrats control
  the Senate 59-41, with 67 votes, or two-thirds, needed for ratification.

  > "When the Senate returns they must act," Clinton said today. The treaty "will advance our national security and
  provide stability and predictability between the world's two leading nuclear powers," she said.
  > Democrats, including Kerry, say the U.S. will need to set an example of arms cuts as Obama and other top officials
  press their counterparts to impose more of their own sanctions on Iran over its nuclear program to complement United
  Nations penalties adopted earlier this year.
  > Republicans including Arizona Senator Jon Kyl have balked at a treaty they say could hamstring U.S. plans for a
  European missile defense system that Russia opposes.

  Re: Hague meeting
  On your meeting on Friday, May 14, with new British Foreign Secretary William Hague you might explore a
  number of issues below. (I've discussed with Shaun.)
  Northern Ireland. Cameron has pledged to reduce public sector spending in NI. But the impact of public
  sector spending there is not the same as in other parts of the UK because of 40 years of troubles.
  Political stability depends upon economic stability. Removing funding specifically threatens community
  policing, creating a vacuum that the Real IRA and other men of violence would rush into. Cutting the
  public sector would make it difficult to increase private sector investment. Does the new government
  understand the US interest in NI and appreciate the fragility of the situation?
  Defense and Foreign Policy Cuts. The new government program is to slash the deficit, cutting deeply into
  government programs. This really cannot be done without defense and foreign policy reductions. Seek
  claficiation on exactly whether and where these cuts be made. Will they affect Afghanistan policy and
  over what schedule? How will cuts in the foreign service affect British influence in other areas?
  Trident and Nuclear Deterrent. The coalition agreement between the Conservative and Liberal Democrats
  allows the LDs to abstain in parliamentary votes on four issues that will apparently let the Tories have
  their way: marriage tax allowances; nuclear power; college tuition fees; and Trident and the nuclear
  deterrent. During the campaign, the LDs ran on eliminating the Trident and erasing the UK nuclear
  deterrent. How will this actually work in practice?
  Political Changes. The new government, because the coalition is fundamentally at odds with itself, has
  proposed to pass a parliamentary bill that establishes a five year term for a government and furthermore
  establishes that a vote of no confidence can only be passed on a 55 percent vote. You might just seek
  Hague's view on how this will work.

  Subject: (AP) Diplomats: Iran expands enrichment facility
  VIENNA - (AP) Iran has set up new equipment that will allow it to boost its efficiency at enriching uranium at higher
  levels, diplomats said May 14. The move is likely to give the U.S. more leverage with Russia and China in its push for new
  UN sanctions on Tehran. Iran's clandestine enrichment activities were discovered eight years ago and have expanded
  since to encompass thousands of centrifuges churning out material enriched to 3.5 percent. But despite three sets of
  Security Council sanctions meant to enforce demands of a freeze, Tehran moved to a new level in February, when it set
  up a small program to produce material enriched to near 20 percent.

  S., D/S, P, T, VCI, EUR, and SIP colleagues,
  Attached is a draft of S. 's testimony for next Tuesday's SFRC hearing on the New START Treaty. Please let us
  know if you have any proposed edits and suggestions as soon as possible, and no later than 2:00 pm tomorrow
  (Friday). As you review this draft, a few reminders:
  • The testimony should be around 5-8 minutes, and ideally on the lower end of that spectrum, so
  suggestions that are word-count-neutral (or suggestions stripping or streamlining verbiage) are much
  preferred.

  • Unlike previous remarks, this is a public hearing and the testimony will be publicly available. I tried to
  strip out language from previous remarks accordingly, and I have one question embedded therein on one
  particular clause.
  • While these remarks are drafted to be slightly more formal (as compared to the All Senators Brief), they
  still should be as accessible as possible, esp. given the lack of extensive substantive expertise by many
  of our SFRC Senators.
  • Please return edits on a bureau-wide basis.
  H, T, and VCI are also coordinating on a full briefing binder that we plan to deliver to S. by COB
  tomorrow. We can certainly shoot that around to anyone who would like a pdf copy.
  Thanks,
  Dave

  Inners arid Losers
  Ey ROGER COHEN
  NEW YORK — The Clintons threw a big Washington bash on June 30 for Hillary Clinton's longtime aide, Hume Abedin,
  and what struck one of the many guests was the absence of anyone from President Obama's tight White House inner
  circle.
  Congressional heavyweights thronged the garden of the Clinton spread on Embassy Row, including House Speaker
  Nancy Pelosi. The city's big powerbrokers and various State Department honchos were there for a party marking Abedin's
  marriage to Congressman Anthony Weiner of New York. But White House insiders stayed away.
  Well, as Bill Clinton told CNN recently, "I did everything I could to defeat President Obama and I wanted Hillary to win" —
  old wounds do not heal overnight. Indeed, they may not heal at all. When my informant said something about the old
  grievances not going away, the response from the hosts went something like this:
  No, they don't and they never will. But, we're public servants and suckers for punishment, so we soldier on.
  Speaking of soldiering on, Mrs. Clinton left for Europe the next day and while Americans celebrated July 4, she was in
  Armenia trying to sort out the Nagorno-Karabakh dispute and.— equally thankless task — mediate between Armenia and
  Turkey on their disagreement over what happened in 1915.
  You've got to salute Hillary. She's got guts to go with that razor-sharp mind. It's a heck of a job being secretary of state
  when the White House puts a tight collar around the big issues — Afghanistan, Iran, Israel-Palestine and Iraq — and
  you're left with Nagorno-Karabakh, disputed Ottoman crimes of World War I and, if you're lucky, U.S. bases on Okinawa.
  The situation might be slightly less troubling if the boys in the White House — and they are overwhelmingly boys — were
  foreign-policy heavyweights. They're not. Indeed, I'm told Henry Kissinger refers to them as "the kids."
  Chief among them, according to my colleague Helene Cooper, is Denis McDonough, the National Security Council's chief
  of staff. Earlier this month, Cooper wrote: "Forget Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton or Defense Secretary Robert
  M. Gates. When it comes to national security, Mr. Obama's inner circle is so tight it largely consists of Mr. McDonough, a
  40-year-old from Minnesota who is unknown to most Americans."
  I do know McDonough and I've spent a fair amount of time in Minnesota. He has many of the state's qualities: positive,
  brisk, can-do, affable and efficient.
  But am I reassured when! read that Obama's national-security inner circle is comprised of him? Nope. He was a great
  guy to control the foreign-policy side of a campaign — as he did to perfection for Obama — but he's not a great guy to
  think big about the world.
  Thinking big and bold is required right now. The clock is ticking on momentous presidential decisions. Among them are an
  Afghan extrication that will salvage a minimum of core U.S. security interests — which will require a bruising negotiation
  with the Taliban — and what to do about Iran when it becomes apparent by the end of this year that the latest sanctions
  have changed nothing. Obama's apparent carte blanche to Israel this month on Iran was disturbing.
  Then there's Israel-Palestine, where Obama can't decide whether the cost of being an honest broker pressure on both
  sides — is worth the domestic heat he takes for being critical of Israel, with the result that he's zigzagging to little effect.
  After firing Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal, Obama said he would tolerate debate but not division. My sense is his foreign-
  policy house is divided — and the weaker for it. Gen. James Jones, his national security adviser, speaks fine French —
  the French love that — but he's left most people unconvinced. Tom Donilon, Jones' deputy, dances around the vacuum
  as best he can. Like McDonough, David Axelrod and Rehm Emanuel were brilliant campaign strategists, but should they
  be foreign-policy strategists?
  In Clinton, Obama has a Baker-class secretary of state. For how much longer is he going to delegate her to Nagorno-
  Karabakh? The State Department, a repository of Other underused talent, cannot be the White House annex for non-
  critical affairs.
  Back in the 1860s, James Gordon Bennett, then the editor of the New York Herald, a forebear of the International Herald
  Tribune, gave these instructions to an intrepid foreign correspondent named Henry Morton Stanley:
  "Draw a thousand pounds now; and when you have gone through that, draw another thousand, and when that is spent,
  draw another thousand, and when you have finished that, draw another thousand, and so on; but, FIND LIVINGSTONE."
  He was referring to the lost African explorer, David Livingstone, whom Stanley eventually tracked down on Lake
  Tanganyika, uttering the immortal words: "Doctor Livingstone, I presume?"
  That sort of journalism's gone out of fashion. So we can all thank Rolling Stone for opening its pocketbook and telling
  Michael Hastings to do whatever it took to find General McChrystal. In his brilliant piece, Hastings did that. He also found
  something else: an Afghan policy as fragmented as the team Obama running it.
  McChrystal's gone, but not the dysfunction. A blow-up, I presume? Watch this space.

  ARGENTINE SENATE PASSES SAME-SEX MARRIAGE BILL
  (SBU) The bill would grant same-sex couples the same legal rights afforded to heterosexuals, according to
  press. Embassy Buenos Aires comments the law implicitly includes the right to adopt and is a significant blow
  to the Catholic Church in Argentina, which had declared the law "a destructive act on God's
  plan." (Ops/Embassy Buenos Aires e-mail, AP)
  PAKISTAN AND INDIA'S MINISTERS MEET TO REBUILD TRUST
  (SBU) Indian External Affairs Minister Krishna met with Pakistani Foreign Minister Qureshi in the highest
  level visit between the two since the November 2008 Mumbai attacks, according to press. The India desk
  comments the two met for an extended amount of time; however, significant obstacles remain, notably
  Pakistan's refusal to prosecute suspects of the Mumbai attacks. (Ops/India desk telcon, AP)

  the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for genocide for President al-Bashir, media

  report. The Office of the Special Envoy for Sudan comments the action might not be in reaction to the ICC
  decision, but rather to an IOM move to quietly scale back cooperation on internally displaced persons. (Ops/S-

  FORMER ASSK AIDE RELEASED IN BURMA AFTER 14 YEARS
  (SBU) Win Htein was released from prison after completing his sentence for providing false information to the

  Fibi Netanyahu
  In 2001, PM boasted of manipulating Oslo accords
  BY LIEL LEIBOVITZ I Jul 15, 2010 4:03 PM I
  Meeting with Benjamin Netanyahu last week, President Obama could not have been more effusive. "I believe Prime
  Minister Netanyahu wants peace," Obama said. "I believe he is ready to take risks for peace."
  A newly revealed tape of Netanyahu in 2001, being interviewed while he thinks the cameras are off, shows him in a
  radically different light. In it, Netanyahu dismisses American foreign policy as easy to maneuver, boasts of having
  derailed the Oslo accords with political trickery, and suggests that the only way to deal with the Palestinians is to
  "beat them up, not once but repeatedly, beat them up so it hurts so badly, until it's unbearable" (all translations are
  mine).
  According to Haaretz's Gideon Levy, the video should be "Banned for viewing by children so as not to corrupt them,
  and distributed around the country and the world so that everyone will know who leads the government of Israel."
  Netanyahu is speaking to a small group of terror victims in the West Bank settlement of Ofra two years after
  stepping down as prime minister in 1999. He appears laid-back. After claiming that the only way to deal with the
  Palestinian Authority was a large-scale attack, Netanyahu was asked by one of the participants whether or not the
  United States would let such an attack come to fruition.
  "I know what America is," Netanyahu replied. "America is a thing you can move very easily, move it in the right
  direction. They won't get in their way." He then called former president Bill Clinton "radically pro-Palestinian," and
  went on to belittle the Oslo peace accords as vulnerable to manipulation. Since the accords state that Israel would

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770481 Date: 08/31/2015
  be allowed to hang on to pre-defined military zones in the West Bank, Netanyahu told his hosts that he could
  torpedo the accords by defining vast swaths of land as just that.
  "They asked me before the election if I'd honor [the Oslo accords]," Netanyahu said. "I said I would, but ... I'm going
  to interpret the accords in such a way that would allow me to put an end to this galloping forward to the '67 borders.
  How did we do it? Nobody said what defined military zones were. Defined military zones are security zones; as far
  as I'm concerned, the entire Jordan Valley is a defined military zone. Go argue."
  Smiling, Netanyahu then recalled how he forced former U.S. Secretary of State Warren Christopher to agree to let
  Israel alone determine which parts of the West Bank were to be defined as military zones. "They didn't want to give
  me that letter," Netanyahu said, "so I didn't give them the Hebron agreement [the agreement giving Hebron back to
  the Palestinians]. I cut the cabinet meeting short and said, 'I'm not signing.' Only when the letter came, during that
  meeting, to me and to Arafat, did I ratify the Hebron agreement. Why is this important? Because from that moment
  on, I de facto put an end to the Oslo accords."
  President Obama, and anyone else concerned about Israel's commitment to the peace process, may watch the tape
  online here.

  Angst about USAID's fate grows as development reviews stall
  Posted: 15 Jul 2010 06:30 AM PDT
  The development community is up in arms about the persistent delays in the administration's two major reviews ol
  development policy, as internal disagreements continue to plague the ongoing efforts to reconcile America's
  development and foreign-policy goals.
  The administration's two major development reviews, the White House's Presidential Study Directive on Global
  Development (PSD-7) and the State Department's Quadrennial Diplomacy and Development Review (QDDR) are
  both missing in action as the administration crosses the 18-month mark. The interim report of the QDDR was
  never released and there's concern the final document might not be ready by the stated September deadline.
  The PSD, a draft version of whichwas first published on The Cable, is being held up by a continuing and
  mounting disagreement between the White House and the State Department over how to divide power over
  development between Foggy Bottom and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
  According to administration sources and development-community leaders, the dispute between the National
  Security Council and the office of the Secretary of State Hillary Clinton came to a head at a principals' meeting in
  late June, when a near-final version of the PSD was discussed. Clinton, our sources report, refused to sign off on th
  PSD because she disagreed with that document's determination that USAID should be the lead agency in charge of
  individual development missions in the field.
  Multiple issues are still in dispute between State and the NSC concerning the reviews, including the role of USAID
  Administrator Rajiv Shah and what level of autonomy USAID will be granted in determining its own policies,
  budgets, and priorities. Shah has been rebuilding USAID's intellectual capacity, but the aid community fears th;
  Clinton intends to consolidate real power inside her office despite her promise to "elevate" and "integrate"
  development as the third pillar of national security alongside diplomacy and defense.
  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770482 Date: 08/31/2015

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770482 Date: 08/31/2015
  Many believe that the White House launched a not-so-subtle salvo at Clinton by releasing a statement on
  development at the G-8, just days after the contentious principals' meeting, that closely tracks what's known about
  the PSD and declaring it as U.S. policy before the internal negotiations with State were completed.
  Leading development community-voices are now openly venting their frustration with the delays in the process.
  "Eighteen months into the administration, the federal government remains abysmally organized to address Haiti,
  Pakistan and other development challenges," wrote Nancy Birdsall, the president of the Center for Global
  Development, on the organization's website Thursday. "When it comes to global development, I'd give
  President Obama and his top advisors an A for strategic vision and a big fat F for failure to get on with it."
  In an open letter to Clinton, National Security Advisor Jim Jones, and National Economic Council chairman
  Larry Summers, Birdsall raised several issues that resonate with development advocates. She called the
  Millennium Challenge Corporation "pathetically underfunded,"lamented that no one seems to know who's in
  charge of big initiatives on food security and global health, and complained that USAID still has vacancies for
  several senior staff positions.
  Birdsall's calls for giving USAID total independence and cabinet-level status aren't likely to be final
  recommendations from either the White House or the State Department.
  But her overall anxiety about USAID's status is widely shared in the development community. A team of top
  development leaders including former USAID administrator Brian Atwood wrote todayto protest the cuts in
  the foreign aid budgetthat Congress is calling for.
  "We are grateful for the emphasis the President has placed on development and foreign assistance -- a tradition he
  continues from President Bush. And we strongly support Secretary Clinton's call to make USAID 'the premier
  development agency in the world,' they wrote. "But this goal will only be achieved when USAID's personnel capacit
  is rebuilt and its funding enhanced."
  World Food Prize Laureate Rev. David Beckmann, who co-chairs the Modernizing Foreign Assistance Network
  (MFAN), told The Cable, "The Obama administration is doing smart and creative things to help hungry and poor
  people around the world. But they are hung up by organizational confusion, and the president needs to make it cle
  that USAID, not the State Department, has lead responsibility for development."
  MFAN even has a running counter on its website tracking the days since President Obama pledged to release hi;
  overall development policy.
  Adding to the concern is the fact that two of the lead officials who are in charge of the QDDR will be departing the
  State Department soon. Deputy Secretary of State Jack Lew has been tapped to become the next director of the
  White House's Office of Management and Budget. Policy Planning chief Anne Marie Slaughterhas made it
  known that her two-year leave from Princeton will require her to return to New Jersey at the end of the year.
  State Department officials assure The Cable that the QDDR will be completed before Lew and Slaughter leave Fogg
  Bottom. Nevertheless, the delays are having an own effect of their own, said Birdsall.
  "Time is not on our side," she told The Cable in an interview. "We're missing in action as a country."

  And pasted below is the exchange between Corker and Holbrooke:
  CORKER:
  Mr. Chairman, thank you.
  I want to thank the ambassador for coming. I know he has a wealth of knowledge and certainly served our country for
  many years.
  A number of us wrote a letter to you asking for this hearing, and my guess is you might have had hearings any way.
  But the reason we wrote the letter -- bipartisan letter -- was to provide Congress and the American people with a
  definition of the end state for our civilian operations in Afghanistan, clear objectives for the civilian mission, and a
  detailed plan for achieving those objectives, and the very specific, measurable metrics being used to measure progress
  towards achieving those objectives.
  I have to say, I've been here for an hour and 10 minutes. I have heard nothing -- nothing -- about that. And while I
  respect the ambassador, I've heard a lot of process. I've heard a lot about meetings. I have no earthly idea -- no earthly
  idea what our objectives are on the civilian front.
  And I don't know if you have time to begin doing that right now, but this has so far been an incredible waste of time,
  from the standpoint of -- of hearing, though.
  And I have tremendous respect for you, but maybe we have the wrong witness. I hope we'll have maybe Secretary
  Clinton and Eikenberry, maybe Crocker. I know he's supposed to come.
  But could you answer the question that was the purpose of these hearings in the first place?
  HOLBROOKE:
  I'm sorry. You don't feel that I've told you what our civilian programs are?
  CORKER:
  You've told me a lot of process. I'd like to know a definition of what our end state is for civilian operations, the very
  question we asked when we set this hearing up, is in Afghanistan, clear objectives for the -- for the -- detailed plan for
  achieving those. I'd like to hear you talk about that.
  I mean, I'm glad we have a lot of interagency folks here, but I'm not hearing anything that talks about where we're
  going.
  I'd also like to know how the withdrawal date that's been set affects that and how it affects those we're working with
  in the country.
  HOLBROOKE:
  First of all, Senator Corker, I believe I have discussed our civilian programs in very considerable detail within the
  constraints of time, but we did prepare a report for this committee earlier this year, which was entered into the record
  and which I will be happy to enter into the record again, if you wish. And you can go through every one of the programs.
  The reason I brought my colleagues with me was to show that this was a whole-of-government, an unprecedented
  effort.
  Now, on the specifics, since you want specifics, Afghanistan is an agricultural country. It exported agricultural products
  until 1978 and the Soviet invasion. We are trying to rebuild it. This was not being done for the first seven years of this
  war.
  We have -- your -- your committee has given us a great deal of money for agriculture. And we are spending it wisely in
  a joint AID- USDA effort, which Senator Lugar has particularly been involved in, food, seeds, cash-for-work programs,
  encouraging alternatives to opium production.
  HOLBROOKE:
  Secondly, rule of law. We are spending -- we are spending the money you have authorized for us to create a justice
  system which can cut into the Taliban's propaganda about corruption and lack of a justice system.
  Third, counter-narcotics. We have ended poppy eradication, a radical change, because all we were doing by
  eradicating poppy seeds, poppy crops, was driving farmers, poor farmers, into the hands of the Taliban.
  Fourth, a major program of subnational governance, where we are putting aid directly to the district level.
  Fifth, a major effort in specific areas, some of which were alluded to earlier, such as electricity for Kandahar. Senator
  Kerry asked earlier about Kandahar. One of the major issues here is to bring electricity to the people as a benefit of the
  international presence.
  The whole range of activities we have is designed to support the country and to support General Petraeus' counter-
  insurgency effort. He and I -- I was his counterpart until two weeks ago when he moved to Kabul. We have worked
  intimately in an effort to create a joint civilian-military effort. And I am happy to provide you with every detail you wish
  in private briefings on behalf of me and my team.
  Point number two in regard to the end state issue you raised. I want to be clear on the difference between end state
  and exit strategy.
  If we -- this is my personal view, senator -- but if we walk away from Afghanistan, again, as we did 21 years ago, the
  consequences will be similarly catastrophic, because of the unique strategic position of Afghanistan and the reaction
  that would have in Pakistan, China, India and the country to Afghanistan's west, Iran, as well as the larger region that
  includes Russia, Saudi Arabia, India, and even extending to Western Europe, which is concerned about terrorism from
  that region, just as much as we are.
  So, I hope that when we talk about end state, we talk about a sustainable end state which involves continued
  American economic and development assistance, and we continue to fulfill our obligations to train the police and the
  military. This will not be cheap. But it will be a fraction of the money that is now being authorized and appropriated for
  the military campaign.
  When we will be able to transition to that is impossible for me or anyone to say. But it won't be on a single day. It will
  be a gradual process. And that is what the review in December and the president's decision-making will focus on.
  CORKER:
  In our foreign policy, generally speaking -- I know we've had some rough times over the last several years -- it's been
  something that we've been able to address in a bipartisan way. And I think that the issues that you're dealing with, that
  we're dealing with in Afghanistan are incredibly tough.
  I still don't -- I haven't understood what the administration was saying in the beginning. That's not to be critical of
  them. I just don't understand. I still don't understand. I've met with you and your staff over at the State Department. It's
  just incredibly vague to me.
  And I think what we are doing, we have partners, which include the Pakistanis and everybody around, that they don't
  know what we're doing. They don't know when we're leaving. They think we're leaving shortly, I think. We've just had
  colleagues who have come from there.
  We've had a -- we've got a president there that's having to play both sides, because he wants to survive, because he
  doesn't know what our intentions are. The Pakistanis don't know what our intentions are, I don't think. And they're
  making accommodations on both sides.
  So, I just have to tell you, I send letters to parents and spouses. And what I feel because of this lack of clarity is that we
  are in Afghanistan, because we're in Afghanistan, and that we don't have the will to be successful. And we don't have
  the will to leave, because of some of the things you just outlined.
  But I just don't hear any clarity. And again, I want to support the administration. I want to support you, because that's
  what we need to do as a country, is let the shores (ph) align (ph), let the partisanship.
  But I have to tell you, as a person who wants to do that, I still don't understand. OK? And I have average intelligence,
  so I would ask you to, please -- or maybe let's have some witnesses in here that can shed more light or be more specific.
  But I don't understand, and I'm very concerned.
  And I think we're sending a lot of mixed signals. And I think there's a lot of dissension. Actually, as I listen to you, even
  within the administration itself, and that has to end.
  And I just ask you, please. You have a lot of experience, help us understand. You haven't done that today. And I would
  ask the chairman to please have some witnesses come in and explain to us what the end state is, what we can envision
  Afghanistan being whenever this withdrawal does take place, because I still do not understand.
  We've changed it. Now it's sort of a degraded country where they have conflict, but it's not out of control. I mean, the
  bar continues to change. And I'm just concerned as an individual, and yet I want us to be, if we can, all on the same page
  as much as possible. But I think to do that, this has got to be much clearer than has been outlined.
  HOLBROOKE:
  Senator, I'm sorry that my answers don't fully satisfy you. But I want to be very clear on this, because I understand
  your comments and I respect them.
  First of all, the core question -- the one you are asked by your constituents, and I'm asked by everybody -- why are we
  in Afghanistan? The short, simple answer is 9/11, direct threats to our national security interests, and the fact that while
  our enemies against our homeland are on the Pakistani side of the border, this is a single struggle. And we have to
  strengthen the Afghan government and let -- and teach it to stand on its own feet over time, so that we can move
  forward, while we do other things that fall outside the scope of this hearing, to dismantle, deter and defeat Al Qaida.
  Now, if you do not believe that it's a threat to the homeland, then we have an honest difference of opinion. But I think
  the Times Square bombing incident shows clearly how dangerous that situation is.
  Secondly, on the civilian mission, again, it's in support of a single, civilian-military, counter-insurgency mission. And we
  have benchmarks, requested and required by the Congress, and submitted to you. And our overarching goal here is
  always the same, to disrupt, dismantle and defeat Al Qaida and prevent its ability to threaten the United States.
  And we believe, all of us -- and there is no division on this in the executive branch -- that the situation we face out
  there is a direct threat. We believe that before the Times Square situation occurred, and I don't think anything could
  have proved it more vividly.
  And to achieve this, we have to degrade the Taliban as well, because they are part of the enemy's structure -- a
  different part, but an integral part -- that we face.
  Now, the Afghan government doesn't yet have the capacity to deal with this on its own. How could they after 30 years
  of war? And so, the civilian part of it, the things I've just mentioned to you -- police, government capacity, rule of law,
  subnational government, training provincial officials, women's empowerment and a whole series of other major issues --
  are part of our civilian programs.
  And we're happy to come back up to your office -- we appreciated your visit to us -- and continue this dialogue.
  Our civilian strategy is designed from keeping Al Qaida at bay, and it's designed to help Afghan institutions establish
  conditions for stable governance. Our plan has these benchmarks, which have been briefed to you and your colleagues,
  and we're happy to discuss them in detail at any time.

  Subject Re: Corker
  And pasted below is the exchange between Corker and Holbrooke:
  CORKER:
  Mr. Chairman, thank you.
  I want to thank the ambassador for coming. I know he has a wealth of knowledge and certainly served our country for
  many years.
  A number of us wrote a letter to you asking for this hearing, and my guess is you might have had hearings any way.
  But the reason we wrote the letter -- bipartisan letter -- was to provide Congress and the American people with a
  definition of the end state for our civilian operations in Afghanistan, clear objectives for the civilian mission, and a
  detailed plan for achieving those objectives, and the very specific, measurable metrics being used to measure progress
  towards achieving those objectives.
  I have to say, I've been here for an hour and 10 minutes. I have heard nothing -- nothing -- about that. And while I
  respect the ambassador, I've heard a lot of process. I've heard a lot about meetings. I have no earthly idea -- no earthly
  idea what our objectives are on the civilian front.
  And I don't know if you have time to begin doing that right now, but this has so far been an incredible waste of time,
  from the standpoint of -- of hearing, though.
  And I have tremendous respect for you, but maybe we have the wrong witness. I hope we'll have maybe Secretary
  Clinton and Eikenberry, maybe Crocker. I know he's supposed to come.
  But could you answer the question that was the purpose of these hearings in the first place?
  HOLBROOKE:
  I'm sorry. You don't feel that I've told you what our civilian programs are?
  CORKER:
  You've told me a lot of process. I'd like to know a definition of what our end state is for civilian operations, the very
  question we asked when we set this hearing up, is in Afghanistan, clear objectives for the -- for the -- detailed plan for
  achieving those. I'd like to hear you talk about that.
  I mean, I'm glad we have a lot of interagency folks here, but I'm not hearing anything that talks about where we're
  going.
  I'd also like to know how the withdrawal date that's been set affects that and how it affects those we're working with
  in the country.
  HOLBROOKE:
  First of all, Senator Corker, I believe I have discussed our civilian programs in very considerable detail within the
  constraints of time, but we did prepare a report for this committee earlier this year, which was entered into the record
  and which I will be happy to enter into the record again, if you wish. And you can go through every one of the programs.
  The reason I brought my colleagues with me was to show that this was a whole-of-government, an unprecedented
  effort.
  Now, on the specifics, since you want specifics, Afghanistan is an agricultural country. It exported agricultural products
  until 1978 and the Soviet invasion. We are trying to rebuild it. This was not being done for the first seven years of this
  war.
  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770483 Date: 08/31/2015

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770483 Date: 08/31/2015
  We have -- your -- your committee has given us a great deal of money for agriculture. And we are spending it wisely in
  a joint AID- USDA effort, which Senator Lugar has particularly been involved in, food, seeds, cash-for-work programs,
  encouraging alternatives to opium production.
  HOLBROOKE:
  Secondly, rule of law. We are spending -- we are spending the money you have authorized for us to create a justice
  system which can cut into the Taliban's propaganda about corruption and lack of a justice system.
  Third, counter-narcotics. We have ended poppy eradication, a radical change, because all we were doing by
  eradicating poppy seeds, poppy crops, was driving farmers, poor farmers, into the hands of the Taliban.
  Fourth, a major program of subnational governance, where we are putting aid directly to the district level.
  Fifth, a major effort in specific areas, some of which were alluded to earlier, such as electricity for Kandahar. Senator
  Kerry asked earlier about Kandahar. One of the major issues here is to bring electricity to the people as a benefit of the
  international presence.
  The whole range of activities we have is designed to support the country and to support General Petraeus' counter-
  insurgency effort. He and I -- I was his counterpart until two weeks ago when he moved to Kabul. We have worked
  intimately in an effort to create a joint civilian-military effort. And I am happy to provide you with every detail you wish
  in private briefings on behalf of me and my team.
  Point number two in regard to the end state issue you raised. I want to be clear on the difference between end state
  and exit strategy.
  If we -- this is my personal view, senator -- but if we walk away from Afghanistan, again, as we did 21 years ago, the
  consequences will be similarly catastrophic, because of the unique strategic position of Afghanistan and the reaction
  that would have in Pakistan, China, India and the country to Afghanistan's west, Iran, as well as the larger region that
  includes Russia, Saudi Arabia, India, and even extending to Western Europe, which is concerned about terrorism from
  that region, just as much as we are.
  So, I hope that when we talk about end state, we talk about a sustainable end state which involves continued
  American economic and development assistance, and we continue to fulfill our obligations to train the police and the
  military. This will not be cheap. But it will be a fraction of the money that is now being authorized and appropriated for
  the military campaign.
  When we will be able to transition to that is impossible for me or anyone to say. But it won't be on a single day. It will
  be a gradual process. And that is what the review in December and the president's decision-making will focus on.
  CORKER:
  In our foreign policy, generally speaking -- I know we've had some rough times over the last several years -- it's been
  something that we've been able to address in a bipartisan way. And I think that the issues that you're dealing with, that
  we're dealing with in Afghanistan are incredibly tough.
  I still don't -- I haven't understood what the administration was saying in the beginning. That's not to be critical of
  them. I just don't understand. I still don't understand. I've met with you and your staff over at the State Department. It's
  just incredibly vague to me.
  And I think what we are doing, we have partners, which include the Pakistanis and everybody around, that they don't
  know what we're doing. They don't know when we're leaving. They think we're leaving shortly, I think. We've just had
  colleagues who have come from there.
  We've had a -- we've got a president there that's having to play both sides, because he wants to survive, because he
  doesn't know what our intentions are. The Pakistanis don't know what our intentions are, I don't think. And they're
  making accommodations on both sides.
  So, I just have to tell you, I send letters to parents and spouses. And what I feel because of this lack of clarity is that we
  are in Afghanistan, because we're in Afghanistan, and that we don't have the will to be successful. And we don't have
  the will to leave, because of some of the things you just outlined.
  But I just don't hear any clarity. And again, I want to support the administration. I want to support you, because that's
  what we need to do as a country, is let the shores (ph) align (ph), let the partisanship.
  But I have to tell you, as a person who wants to do that, I still don't understand. OK? And I have average intelligence,
  so I would ask you to, please -- or maybe let's have some witnesses in here that can shed more light or be more specific.
  But I don't understand, and I'm very concerned.

  And I think we're sending a lot of mixed signals. And I think there's a lot of dissension. Actually, as I listen to you, even
  within the administration itself, and that has to end.
  And I just ask you, please. You have a lot of experience, help us understand. You haven't done that today. And I would
  ask the chairman to please have some witnesses come in and explain to us what the end state is, what we can envision
  Afghanistan being whenever this withdrawal does take place, because I still do not understand.
  We've changed it. Now it's sort of a degraded country where they have conflict, but it's not out of control. I mean, the
  bar continues to change. And I'm just concerned as an individual, and yet I want us to be, if we can, all on the same page
  as much as possible. But I think to do that, this has got to be much clearer than has been outlined.
  HOLBROOKE:
  Senator, I'm sorry that my answers don't fully satisfy you. But I want to be very clear on this, because I understand

  AFTER IROQUOIS LACROSSE TEAM DENIED ENTRY TO UK, GELLIBRAND ASKS
  SECRETARY OF STATE TO DEVELOP INTERNATIONALLY-RECOGNIZED TRAVEL
  DOCUMENTS FOR TRIBES AND NATIONS IN NORTH AMERICA
  Gillibrand: "We Must Ensure that Native Americans Have the Same Freedom to Travel Around the World"
  Washington, DC — With the Iroquois Nationals Lacrosse Team missing their first world championship game in
  England due to the British government's refusal to recognize their Haudenosaunee Confederacy-issued
  passports, U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) today asked Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to work with
  Native American leaders and the Canadian and UK governments to develop internationally-recognized travel
  documents for the Iroquois nation as well as other tribes and nations in North America in order to prevent any
  Native American groups from being denied travel abroad in the future. Senator Gillibrand praised Secretary
  Clinton for clearing the way for the 23-member team to travel to the United Kingdom to participate in the
  Olympics of lacrosse and expressed disappointment in the outcome.
  In a letter to Secretary Clinton, Senator Gillibrand wrote, "Considering the recent situation which prevented the
  members of the Iroquois Nationals Lacrosse team and their supporters from traveling to the United Kingdom to
  participate in the international lacrosse tournament with the Haudenosaunee passports, and in an effort to
  prevent against such disappointment in the future, I therefore request that you work with Tribal governments, in
  concert with the Canadian government to the extent that Canada faces a similar situation, to come to an
  understanding with the United Kingdom and other foreign governments with the goal of establishing a
  document or process that would provide Native American travelers with the same freedom of movement
  enjoyed by all U.S. citizens."
  The members of the Iroquois lacrosse team view their tribe as a sovereign nation and, like many Native
  Americans throughout New York, strongly and rightfully protect their own national identities and will not
  accept a U.S. or Canadian passport. This important recognition coupled with heightened aviation security
  standards after September 11th pose a challenge for the Iroquois lacrosse team, leaving them unable to leave
  New York and compete in England. To ensure that this does not happen again, Senator Gillibrand encouraged
  the U.S. and Canada to work with Native American leaders to develop a universally recognized document for
  all tribes and nations in North America that meet international travel standards.
  Current standards for travel documents, developed by the International Civil Aviation Organization for Machine
  Readable Passports (MRPs), include a machine readable zone on the identity page with the name, passport
  number, nationality, date of birth, sex, passport expiration date and personal identity number of the passport holder.
  On Wednesday, Secretary Clinton issued a one-time travel waiver and granted approval for them to re-enter the
  U.S., but the British government decided not to recognize the waiver and denied the team entry into the United
  Kingdom. The Iroquois lacrosse team defaulted on the first game and currently remains in New York ahead of
  tomorrow's second game.
  Full text of the letter is below.
  Dear Madam Secretary,
  Jam writing to you with regard to the Iroquois Nationals Lacrosse Team's recent inability to travel to the
  United Kingdom on Haudenosaunee passports. Thank you for your decision to allow a one-time waiver for the
  team to travel on their passports and for the efforts of your staff to work with the British consulate on behalf of
  the team's ability to travel. Jam disappointed by the decision of the United Kingdom government to deny entry
  visas to the team despite your decision to grant them a waiver and assurance that they would be allowed to re-
  enter the United States, but am also hopeful that you will continue your efforts to facilitate travel of Native
  Americans internationally.

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770489 Date: 08/31/2015
  As you are aware, there is a large constituency of Native Americans in New York State. The tribes strongly
  guard their sovereignty and rightly celebrate and protect their own national identities. Treaties between the
  United States and tribal governments have established their status as sovereign nations within the United
  States. It is understandable that they should seek to maintain their national insignia to the greatest extent
  possible. Although current law provides that "a person born in the United States to a member of an Indian,
  Eskimo, Aleutian, or other aboriginal tribe" ... "shall be nationals and citizens of the United States," we should
  also not fail to recognize the unique status that Native Americans enjoy.
  In past instances, members of the Iroquois Confederacy have been allowed to travel internationally using a
  Haudenosaunee travel document. I fully understand that it is the right of each country to determine what is
  accepted as a valid travel document for entry into their country. However, it seems to me that other countries
  should be more amenable to consideration of United States Government's policies that accommodate the
  sovereignty of Native Americans while addressing the concerns of foreign governments.
  It is my understanding that the Haudenosaunee Grand Council of Chiefs is in ongoing discussion with the
  Department of State regarding how to improve their passport so that it would meet the higher-level
  international travel security requirements. Considering the recent situation which prevented the members of
  the Iroquois Nationals Lacrosse team and their supporters from traveling to the United Kingdom to participate
  in the international lacrosse tournament with the Haudenosaunee passports, and in an effort to prevent against
  such disappointment in the future, I therefore request that you work with Tribal governments, in concert with
  the Canadian government to the extent that Canada faces a similar situation, to come to an understanding with
  the United Kingdom and other foreign governments with the goal of establishing a document or process that
  would provide Native American travelers with the same freedom of movement enjoyed by all US. citizens.
  I request your assessment of whether current law would allow the development of an alternative travel
  document that would be recognized by other governments such as the United Kingdom, your facilitation of
  enhancing the Haudenosaunee passport so that it complies with standard international practices, or if
  necessary, the determination of whether legislation would be necessary in order to move forward on resolving
  this issue.
  Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to working with you to address these concerns.

  Subject: Karzai meeting
  Dear Melanne and Saba,
  I've attached the notes from our meeting with Karzai; they may be helpful in preparing for next week
  On the positive side, he committed to including women in any formal negotiations with the Taliban. Hopefully we can nail that down
  firmly -- it would be both a good safeguard and a signal to the Taliban of the kind of Afghanistan they will be joining if they do indeed
  ever want to join it
  Beyond that, he was in "women's lives first, women's rights second" mode — speaking passionately about the human cost of the
  conflict and the impossibility of Afghanistan enjoying genuine human rights until the fighting ends. He did this to the point of
  denying that any real human rights progress had come in his presidency (thus implying that bringing in Taliban would not make
  matters worse).
  In terms of your messaging, it would be great if, when the Secretary stresses that reconciling insurgents should accept the Afghan
  constitution and laws, she specifically mentions the right of girls to go to school and work and take part in the political process. That
  would be consistent, I think, with what the administration has said before, but more explicit. Karzai told us that his government
  already stresses those specific rights (that's not true --but it suggests that it would be hard for them to disagree if the US and
  international community made it part of their mantra).
  It would also, of course, be great if she could find a way to express concern about giving reconciling Taliban leaders who have a track
  record of brutality, including attacks on girls schools and killings of women who defy their threats, positions in local or national
  government. One can support negotiations even with the worst of the worst of the Taliban, and offer them other kinds of
  incentives. But we should draw the line at offering positions of authority over the lives of the people they have been terrorizing (as
  the Pakistanis did, disastrously, in Swat).
  Hope this helps,
  Tom

  Notes on Tom Malinowski/Rachel Reid meeting with Hamid Karzai
  July 14, 2010
  Karzai: Opening pitch: Where is the war on terror? Even the Americans say it is in
  Pakistan. That's where al Qaeda is. In Afghanistan, it is our insurgency, something
  between ourselves that we have to resolve. We have been at war for 30 years;
  nothing is more important than ending this.
  I know the Taliban better than anyone else. They killed my father, they've killed
  thousands. We chased them out after just 1.5 months nine years ago. Yet today,
  people are still being killed.
  I could say that I was happier with human rights in Afghanistan today than under
  the Soviets, or during the civil war, or under the Taliban, but it would be a political •
  statement; it would not be from my heart. How can I claim that human rights are in
  a better situation here when there are thousands of people being killed?
  More on toll of war - he shows us his daily casualty reports for the previous
  Wednesday, reads off the totals for Afghan civilians, ISAF troops, Afghan troops, and
  "enemy" troops (and then hastens to add that he disagrees with the term "enemy.")
  What would you do if you see happy occasion in one corner of the room and a
  tragedy in the other? Do you go to the happy corner? No of course you go to the
  tragedy, and that is my focus/priority.
  Malinowski - I respect your argument. Most leaders would tell us to focus on the
  positive. I've Never argued with a head of state that human rights situation in his
  country was actually better than he thinks. But have to disagree with you - as
  horrific as the problems still are, there has been progress in the last ten years in part
  because of steps your government has taken- for example, having 37% of girls in
  school is not good enough, but it's far better than nightmare that preceded it.
  (Karzai - yes, and there is a free press, elections, other progress). So yes, to deal
  with the massive suffering you need to pursue peace. But how do pursue peace
  without jeopardizing the gains made, including in women's rights?
  Karzai - Peace will never jeopardize progress, war will.
  Malinowski - Imagine there is a Taliban shadow governor who is responsible for the
  destruction of girls' schools and issuing death threats through night letters. Can you
  conceive of a deal in which that man is made the real governor of his district or
  province, if he simply agrees to respect the Afghan Constitution going forward?
  Karzai - Not necessarily. But if he agrees to leave aside his arms, abide by the law,
  settle down to a life under the constitution.

  One option is peace, one is a deal. The other is war. If it is a deal then you'll be the
  district governor but leave behind the violence. If that brings peace then what
  would you do? Knowing he has a bad character, and becomes the district governor,
  or that he continues the conflict?
  Q to Tom -- what would you do if it was in Nashville, TN and this was the only way to
  stop a war claiming so many lives?
  Malinowski - I wouldn't make him mayor of Nashville.
  Karzai - We have that now in our government. We have people with terrible pasts in
  the government.
  We had vetting but it went wrong. Look at what happened in parliamentary vetting.
  The weaker people who had committed fewer violations were removed; the bigger
  ones who committed worse acts were allowed.
  Malinowski - we have more than just the two choices you suggested. There is a
  middle ground between trying to kill Taliban leaders and making them the leaders
  of one's community.
  Karzai - OK, what does it look like?
  Malinowski - peace and reconciliation, an agreement to stop fighting and killing
  each other, perhaps exile for some people, perhaps giving them the chance to run for
  political office on a level playing field with everyone else (including vetting). But not
  necessarily giving them jobs in which they will have authority over peoples' lives.
  There are obviously more complicated issues having to do with transitional justice.
  As you know, we opposed the amnesty law (Karzai turns to his aides and says:
  "That was the thing the Parliament did, right?"). But even if one supports amnesties,
  that's different from allowing Taliban leaders positions of authority.
  Karzai - If you have a choice between saving a girl's life and preserving her chance to
  go to school, which would you do first? Obviously, saving lives must come first.
  Ending this war must come first.
  Malinowski - There is undeniable logic to that argument, but in practice we've
  found that you have to pursue peace and human rights together. Look at what
  happened to the Pakistanis in Swat. They made a hasty deal with the Pakistani
  Taliban, allowed them to come in and take power. Women were kept from school
  and work; there were awful cases of public whippings and abuse that shocked the
  Pakistani public. And before long, war broke out again and the Pakistani army had
  to retake what they gave away. They tried to trade rights for peace and got neither.

  Karzai - Don't worry about the Taliban being part of government (suggests long way
  off, only talk). And if we get there, Afghan people will have a chance to decide these
  questions. Not up to me.
  Malinowski - Good that women have been increasingly included in these
  discussions, including in the Peace Jirga. Will they be included in any negotiations
  with the Taliban?
  Karzai - Yes. They will be present in the negotiations.
  The overall question is the rights of the Afghan people. We are starving for human
  rights in Afghanistan. Most of all, the right to life.
  Malinowski - When you say that Taliban members must abide by the Constitution
  and Afghan laws to reconcile, can you add a subordinate clause, specifically
  mentioning that they must accept the right of women to go to school, work,
  participate in politics? Those are all part of Afghan law; stressing them explicitly
  would reassure us and send the right signal to the Taliban.
  Karzai: Turns to his aides: Don't we already say that? They answer "yes." We do,
  we have; it's in the declaration of the peace jirga [note: it is not].
  MILITIAS
  Karzai: Afghans don't want militias; it's a disaster for this country; we've made this
  very clear. They are security firms, transportation companies, they are everywhere.
  Community guard police are what we need, recruited through police procedures
  and not paid by commanders; paid as individuals.

  Fibi Netanyahu
  In 20015 PM boasted of manipulating Oslo accords

  CREDIT: ::nl 1
  Meeting with Benjamin Netanyahu last week, President Obama could not have been more effusive. "I believe Prime
  Minister Netanyahu wants peace," Obama :3411 ill. "I believe he is ready to take risks for peace."
  A newly revealed tape of Netanyahu in 2001, being interviewed while he thinks the cameras are off, shows him in a
  radically different light. in it, Netanyahu dismisses American foreign policy as easy to maneuver, boasts of having derailed
  the Oslo accords with political trickery, and suggests that the only way to deal with the Palestinians is to "beat them up,
  not once but repeatedly, beat them up so it hurts so badly, until it's unbearable" (all translations are mine).
  PI to Haaretz's Gideon Levy, the video should be "Banned for viewing by children so as not to corrupt them, and
  distributed around the country and the world so that everyone will know who leads the government of Israel."
  Netanyahu is speaking to a small group of terror victims in the West Bank settlement of Ofra two years after stepping
  down as prime minister in 1999. He appears laid-back. After claiming that the only way to deal with the Palestinian
  Authority was a large-scale attack, Netanyahu was asked by one of the participants whether or not the United States
  would let such an attack come to fruition.
  "I know what America is," Netanyahu replied. "America is'a thing you can move very easily, move it in the right direction.
  They won't get in their way." He then called former president Bill Clinton "radically pro-Palestinian," and went on to belittle
  the Oslo peace accords as vulnerable to manipulation. Since the accords state that Israel would be allowed to hang on to
  pre-defined military zones in the West Bank, Netanyahu told his hosts that he could torpedo the accords by defining vast
  swaths of land as just that.
  "They asked me before the election if rd honor [the Oslo accords]," Netanyahu said. "I said I would, but ... I'm going to
  interpret the accords in such a way that would allow me to put an end to this gallOping forward to the '67 borders. How did
  we do it? Nobody said what defined military zones were. Defined military zones aresecurity zones; as far as I'm
  concerned, the entire Jordan Valley is a defined military zone. Go argue."
  Smiling, Netanyahu then recalled how he forced former U.S. Secretary of State Warren Christopher to agree to let Israel
  alone determine which parts of the West Bank were to be defined as military zones. "They didn't want to give me that
  letter," Netanyahu said, "so I didn't give them the Hebron agreement [the agreement giving Hebron back to the
  Palestinians]. I cut the cabinet meeting short and said, 'I'm not signing.' Only when the letter came, during that meeting, to
  me and to Arafat, did I ratify the Hebron agreement. Why is this important? Because from that moment on, I de facto put
  an end to the Oslo accords."
  President Obama, and anyone else concerned about Israel's commitment to the peace process, may watch the tape
  online here PI.

  chair behind. The civil society rep will sit at the table ( the woman who was mentioned earlier (P...?); sorry I don't recall
  right now; Kathy recognized her name). Sima Simar would sit behind. Eight minutes would be allow for speaking and
  the civil society rep will begin. Please, however, Staffan and Martin asked that we please keep this compromise quiet so

  I have not seen him since his return. Below is an email that he sent today to the faculty.
  If it is appropriate, please convey my thanks to Secretary. It must have been an extraordinary challenging set of
  decisions, balancing various aspects of U.S. interests - including avoiding the appearance that the U.S. claims a special
  right to interfere in another country's system of justice (ironic, in light of Peter's view of U.S. foreign policy).

  Dear WMCL Colleagues,
  It will take some time for me to get my feet underneath me, and to catch up on all left undone during my recent
  involuntary vacation in Rwanda's prisons. However, I am well-enough to begin to appreciate how much the entire
  College community did to assist in securing my release.
  I will probably never know all of the contributions to the campaign for my release that came from each of my WMCL
  colleagues, although Eric has filled me in on many of the efforts within the College, and reaching beyond the College,
  that helped turn my detention into a spontaneous movement for my release. I owe each of you a lot, particularly Jane
  and Melissa, who had to deal with the mess of ungraded exams and unreturned calls and emails.
  My colleagues who wrote and called others on my behalf and even showed-up at rallies have my deepest appreciation.
  While my detention and release have importance for our community, I thought it might be helpful to put your efforts
  into the larger context, which iput me in danger in Rwanda. At the bottom of this message is a Voice of America story
  that explains that my arrest is part of a much more significant story, which implicates the U.S. in the deaths of millions in
  Central Africa over the past three decades.
  Since I have already promised my wife to NEVER do anything like this again, it is not a big stretch to make the same
  promise to each of you....but it is great to know that you were there when I needed you. Many, many thanks.
  your grateful colleague,
  C. Peter

  Rwanda Tribunal Lawyers Denounce Killing of One of Their Own
  Nico Colombant I Washington 17 July 2010
  An association of lawyers working at the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda has denounced the recent killing of
  one of their colleagues. They also expressed grave concern at the series of murders, arrests and assassination attempts
  in the run-up to Rwanda's presidential election next month.
  The statement by a collective of defense lawyers at the Tanzania-based tribunal for Rwanda, known by its acronym ICTR
  (sic), was released following the killing of law professor Jwani Mwaikusa earlier this week near his home in Dar es
  Salaam, Tanzania.
  The head of the association, American lawyer and law professor Peter Erlinder, told VOA Mwaikusa had been very active
  at the tribunal. "Professor Mwaikusa had been successful in preventing a number of cases from being transferred from
  the ICTR to Rwanda and he also had recently completed a trial in which he announced he was going to be filing an
  appeal," he said.
  Mwaikusa had said the trials would not be fair if they were held in Rwanda.
  Erlinder himself was recently jailed for nearly a month in Rwanda on charges of challenging the government's official
  history of what happened during the 1994 genocide, after trying to represent an opposition leader who was also jailed
  on genocide denial charges.
  The statement calls for an independent investigation of the Mwaikusa murder, as well as guarantees from the United
  Nations Security Council to ensure the safety of the tribunal's defense lawyers.
  Erlinder also said evidence necessary to defense teams is being withheld at the tribunal, and he called for fully disclosing
  evidence of crimes committed in Rwanda in 1994 by both the former government and current leadership.
  "We have a situation where the entire defense at the ICTR is finding itself in a situation where it is very hard to do its
  work," he said.

  The statement by the lawyers said they were afraid Mwaikusa's murder was not isolated. It followed last month's
  assassination attempt against a former ally turned opponent of Rwandan President Paul Kagame in South Africa, the
  killing of a journalist in Kigali who was investigating the assassination bid, and the near decapitation of an official from
  Rwanda's opposition Democratic Green Party, who was found dead near his car earlier this week near the southern
  town of Butare.
  Rwandan authorities have denied any link between the series of murders and attacks and the upcoming election, saying
  those who insinuate a crackdown is taking place are in their words "frustrated" politicians.
  Mr. Kagame, who led the Uganda-backed ethnic minority Tutsi rebellion that took over Rwanda from its Hutu-led
  government after the genocide, was elected in 2003 with more than 95 percent of the vote. He has expressed
  confidence he will be re-elected in August.
  Rwandan police say they arrested a man in connection with the killing of the opposition leader, saying he was a
  businessman connected with the Green Party.
  Several suspects have been arrested in the case of the journalist.
  But there is growing international pressure on Rwanda's government to clarify the situation.
  U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has called for a full investigation into the deaths of the journalist and the
  opposition leader.
  Meanwhile, Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero recently called off a planned meeting with Mr.
  Kagame, after protests by Spanish human rights groups.
  In Spain, a case is pending against dozens of current and former Rwandan officers who have been indicted on charges of
  genocide and crimes against humanity for alleged reprisal killings during and after the 1994 genocide, in which hundreds
  of thousands of people, most of them ethnic Tutsis, were killed.
  Spanish law allows its courts to prosecute crimes against humanity even if those crimes took place elsewhere.

  Dear Mr. Koh,
  I am a colleague of Professor Erlinder and also a graduate of Yale Law School ('79). I invoke the latter connection in
  hopes of obtaining your attention to a plea on Professor Erlinder's behalf.
  Professor Erlinder and I agree on very little politically. Indeed, we disagree on almost every issue. However, I want the
  U.S. government to do everything it can to speedily obtain Professor Erlinder's release.

  I readily acknowledge that I don't understand the underlying merits of the criminal matter. I have heard Professor
  Erlinder's assertions that his efforts (and those of his colleagues) have exposed many previously hidden truths and those
  assertions (which include condemnation of the U.N., one of my least favorite organizations) seemed credible to me.
  But those merits are, in my opinion, entirely beside the point, as is the question of whether Professor Erlinder was
  foolish or brave to return to Rwanda. I respect both Don Quixote and Clarence Darrow. The point is that Professor
  Erlinder put himself at risk to "walk the walk" of a fundamental principle of any free society — the right to counsel. The
  defendants at the Nuremberg trials had counsel. The Israelis accorded Eichmann counsel.
  It now appears that Professor Erlinder's detention may turn into a covert execution. "Under intense interrogation from
  detectives, detained American Prof. Peter Erlinder swallowed up to 50 tablets meant to treat hypertension and other
  medical conditions — which the Police now says is also another crime, RNA can exclusively reveal." Rwandan News

  Please use all the skills and resources at your command to cause our government to help Professor Erlinder to freedom
  before it is too late.
  Thank you.

  CAIRO (AP) - Egypt says more work needs to be done to bridge the gap between Israel and the Palestinians before they
  can move to direct peace talks. Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
  met separately with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in Cairo. None of them spoke to the press afterward. But
  Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul Gheit told reporters the basis to move from indirect to direct talks is still
  "lacking."

  Subject: "Do More"
  The expression "do more" repeated incessantly in today's press is essentially a negative characterization of the
  Secretary's position. In general, it is code for "After so much cost and so many losses and so many bombs in our cities,
  the Americans are telling us we're still not doing enough." This negative interpretation is used by the PakMil to convince
  Pakistanis that the U.S. is a malign influence and to avoid taking the steps we seek.
  When you brief her this morning suggest the following:
  We avoid literally using the words "do more;" but
  Do not hesitate to specify what we want them to do; and
  Let's push back on this view: We acknowledge their contributions and their losses — and we are helping. We-
  would never ask Pakistan to do more alone —we are doing more, too, including supporting Pakistan militarily
  and economically. Freedom requires constant vigilance and democracy is never "done."

  Dear Madam Secretary,
  Minister Afzali of the Ministry of Labor, Social Affairs, Martyrs and Disabled (MOLSA) is working hard in her new role as
  the only confirmed female minister within the Government of Afghanistan. MOLSA has been under-resourced by the
  international community and the USG, and while we are not shifting significant funds to her ministry, we have
  undertaken a high-payoff, focused program of mentoring and policy advice.
  Minister Afzali views you as a role model and seeks your mentorship & support. She has explained some of her priorities
  in the attached correspondence and would like to meet briefly with you at the Kabul Conference, a meeting. Time
  permitting, we would recommend a brief session with some international and Afghan media present. Perhaps at some
  point Secretary Solis can visit here and deepen the partnership with Minister Afzali.
  Respectfully,
  Karl

  Subject: Letter from and Meeting with Afghan Minister of Labor, Social Affiars, Martyrs and Disabled
  Dear Madam Secretary,
  Minister Afzali of the Ministry of Labor, Social Affairs, Martyrs and Disabled (MOLSA) is working hard in her new role as
  the only confirmed female minister within the Government of Afghanistan. MOLSA has been under-resourced by the
  international community and the USG, and while we are not shifting significant funds to her ministry, we have
  undertaken a high-payoff, focused program of mentoring and policy advice.
  Minister Afzali views you as a role model and seeks your mentorship & support. She has explained some of her priorities
  in the attached correspondence and would like to meet briefly with you at the Kabul Conference, a meeting. Time
  permitting, we would recommend a brief session with some international and Afghan media present. Perhaps at some
  point Secretary Solis can visit here and deepen the partnership with Minister Afzali.
  Respectfully,
  Karl

  Below are points for the press on the plane. I'll have a hard copy printed:
  First major ministerial in Afghanistan since the 1970s. The very fact of it is a big deal.
  Context is important. This is not out of the blue, it's not just a random gathering; it's part of a systematic process:
  Karzai's inauguration, announcement of the President's strategy, London conference, Peace Jirga, and now the Kabul
  conference.
  Increasing Afghan leadership and ownership: They are presenting a set of concrete programs on governance, service
  delivery, security transition, economic development, and reintegration. These programs are detailed; they are serious;
  and they reflect months of work and consultation.
  Increasing international alignment: The international community is coordinating with each other - through ISAF, Sedwill,
  de Mistura, etc. - and aligning its efforts with the Afghan programs and priorities being set forth at this conference. This
  is NOT a pledging conference. It is an opportunity to ensure we are effectively supporting Afghan government
  leadership and ownership
  Follow-through and accountability: In his inauguration, Karzai laid out a credible vision; in London, the Afghan
  government committed to developing and pursuing specific plans in a variety of areas; at Kabul, we'll be heavily focused
  on implementation. This is about mutual accountability for the pledges made and the programs set forth.
  July 2011: The president's strategy reflects both urgency and resolve: increased resources and intensity in our efforts to
  take the fight to the enemy and to build Afghan capacity to effect a conditions-based transition; and a long-term civilian
  commitment to support Afghanistan long into the future.
  Clear strategy: Reverse the momentum of the Taliban; build the capacity of Afghan security forces; and as Afghans
  develop the capability to stabilize their country, we must draw down our combat presence and make a responsible
  transition to Afghan leadership.
  Clear desired end-state: An Afghan state that is willing and strong enough to ensure that global terrorists never again
  have safe haven within its borders; can withstand internal and external threats; and can continue to make long-term
  political and economic progress, all with sustainable levels of international support.
  Civ-mil cooperation: Unfortunate to lose General McChrystal, but maintained continuity with General Petraeus and we
  have only intensified our civ-mil engagement both in Kabul and Washington.
  Reconciliation: Stress that it is Afghan-led. Note red-lines.

  Secretary Clinton may be one of the highest-profile attendees at Tuesday's Kabul Conference, but
  Afghan women fear their opinions won't be heard—and they worry new deals with fighters will roll
  back their hard-fought rights.
  As Hillary Clinton prepares to attend Tuesday's Kabul Conference, Afghan women are delivering a plain message to
  government and international officials: Women's voices should be heard.
  "We have to be honest. With respect to the Kabul Conference, we have not been consulted," said Soraya Pakzad, founder
  of a women's shelter in the western Afghan city of Herat. Her comment came during an unusually heated question-and-
  answer session with Afghan Finance Minister Omar Zakhilwal and United Nations representative Staffan de
  Mistura marking the end of a two-day women's conference. "We want to be involved in policy-making. We don't want our
  presence to be purely symbolic."
  "Women's rights and achievements should not be compromised in any peace negotiations or
  accords."
  The Kabul Conference is, in part, built on symbolism. A follow-up to January's London Conference, the gathering marks
  the first time Afghanistan has played host to its international donors, a decision that is intended to showcase the transition
  from foreign to Afghan ownership of national priorities. More than 65 international delegations are expected to descend
  upon the Afghan capital, which is already enduring security crackdowns and traffic gridlock. Workers could be seen
  Sunday painting curbs and planting flowers in advance of the foreigners' arrival.
  Discussions will center around five topics, including economic development, agriculture, governance, and security. The
  goal of the half-day event is to establish a framework for Afghan leadership in the setting—and execution—of the
  country's political and economic direction.
  •Ann Marlowe: The Republican Fight Over Afghanistan Although it remains to be seen how quickly the
  Afghan government, long under-resourced and beset by allegations of corruption, will be able to take the reins from its
  international donors, there is no question that Afghan ownership is the direction in which things are moving, on the
  political, economic, and security fronts. And that is precisely why women feel the stakes for this week's meeting are so
  high, particularly in light of new deals to empower local militias that might threaten women's rights.

  "After the Kabul Conference, no one knows what else could be on the agenda apart from war escalations and
  negotiations," said Orzala Ashraf, an Afghan human rights activist. "This is very important for us, to get a serious and
  honest commitment from our government in the presence of all witnesses from the world that our voices will not be
  silenced."
  Ashraf and a number of other women's advocates view Tuesday's talks are their last, best shot at speaking out about their
  concerns, with help from European and American officials who have been working hard to help them win a seat at the
  table. In another show of support, Secretary Clinton and Danish Foreign Minister Lene Espersen will meet Tuesday
  morning with a group of women leaders.
  Regardless of this high-profile backing, many women say they have little faith in the process to produce anything aside
  from more paper and more unkept promises.
  "Women are very tired of all these conferences; the government is going to have to show commitments," said Selay
  Ghaffar, an Afghan Women's Network board member. "We want things to change."
  And it remains unclear how many Afghans outside Kabul, men or women, are paying attention to yet another gathering to
  discuss their future.
  "Women in the provinces don't even know about this," said Zainab, a young math teacher from Helmand province. "I
  would say 60 percent of women have no idea this is going on."
  Others say the presence of one or two women at the Kabul Conference isn't enough to make a difference. And they say
  they fear the recent move from NATO to empower local militias to fight the Taliban, particularly in southern Afghanistan.
  "This is very dangerous," said Shahida Hussain, a human rights advocate from Kandahar who worked as a community
  organizer during the Taliban years. "We had militias during the communist years and Afghanistan was destroyed. We fear
  war again."
  Women leaders say that they want peace and are glad to welcome back former fighters, but only if they respect women's
  constitutional guarantee to equal protections under the law.
  "Women should be a constituent part of all bodies outlined in the Afghanistan Peace and Reintegration Plan," said the
  women in a statement at the end of their meeting. "Women's rights and achievements should not be compromised in any
  peace negotiations or accords."
  In the meantime, women continue to fight for a voice as Tuesday approaches. After a weeklong flurry of conference calls,
  embassy meetings, and lunchtime gatherings, two women aside from government ministers are now slated to speak.
  And in a small victory for women, international officials agreed with Pakzad's assessment before pledging that women
  would be more involved going forward.
  "I agree, you were not consulted," said da Mistura, appearing to contradict the Afghan finance minister, who only a few
  moments earlier had said that women's views had and would be included. "As usual, we have been paying lip service to
  you and we are all at fault for that."

  peace negotiations or accords."
  In the meantime, women continue to fight for a voice as Tuesday approaches. After a weeklong flurry of conference calls,
  embassy meetings, and lunchtime gatherings, two women aside from government ministers are now slated to speak.
  And in a small victory for women, international officials agreed with Pakzad's assessment before pledging that women
  would be more involved going forward.
  "I agree, you were not consulted," said da Mistura, appearing to contradict the Afghan finance minister, who only a few
  moments earlier had said that women's views had and would be included. "As usual, we have been paying lip service to
  you and we are all at fault for that."
  Gayle Tzemach Lemmon covered presidential politics as a producer at ABC News in Washington. Since 2005, she has
  been reporting on women entrepreneurs starting small and medium-sized businesses in post-conflict economies such as
  Afghanistan, Bosnia and Rwanda. She is currently working on a book scheduled for 2010 publication by HarperCollins
  about a young Afghan entrepreneur whose business supported her family and community during the Taliban years.

  Pakistan's Elite Pay Few Taxes, Widening Gap
  By SABRINA TAVERN ISE
  ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — Much of Pakistan's capital city looks like a rich Los Angeles suburb. Shiny sport utility vehicles purr down
  gated driveways. Elegant multistory homes are tended by servants. Laundry is never hung out to dry.
  But behind the opulence lurks a troubling fact. Very few of these households pay income tax. That is mostly because the politicians who
  make the rules are also the country's richest citizens, and are skilled at finding ways to exempt themselves.
  That would be a problem in any country. But in Pakistan, the lack of a workable tax system feeds something more menacing: a festering
  inequality in Pakistani society, where the wealth of its most powerful members is never redistributed or put to use for public good. That
  is creating conditions that have helped spread an insurgency that is tormenting the country and complicating American policy in the
  region.
  It is also a sorry performance for a country that is among the largest recipients of American aid, payments of billions of dollars that prop
  up the country's finances and are meant to help its leaders fight the insurgency.
  Though the authorities have tried to expand the net in recent years, taxing profits from the stock market and real estate, entire swaths of
  the economy, like agriculture, a major moneymaker for the elite, remain untaxed.
  "This is a system of the elite, by the elite and for the elite," said Riyaz Hussain Naqvi, a retired government official who worked in tax
  collection for 38 years. "It is a skewed system in which the poor man subsidizes the rich man."
  The problem starts at the top. The average worth of Pakistani members of Parliament is $900,000, with its richest member topping $37
  million, according to a December study by the Pakistan Institute of Legislative Development and Transparency in Islamabad.

  While Pakistan's income from taxes last year was the lowest in the country's history, according to Zafar ul-Majeed, a senior official in
  the Federal Board of Revenue, the assets of current members of Parliament nearly doubled from those of members of the previous
  Parliament, the institute study found.
  The country's top opposition leader, Nawaz Sharif, reported that he paid no personal income tax for three years ending in 2007 in
  public documents he filed with Pakistan's election commission. A spokesman for Mr. Sharif, an industrialist who is widely believed to be
  a millionaire, said he had been in exile and had turned over positions in his companies to relatives.
  A month of requests for similar documents for Pakistan's president and prime minister went unanswered by the commission;
  representatives for the men said they did not have the figures.
  "Taxes are the Achilles' heel of Pakistani politicians," said Jahangir Tareen, a businessman and member of Parliament who is trying to
  put taxes on the public agenda. He paid $225,534 in income tax in 2009, a figure he made public in Parliament last month. "If you don't
  have income, fine, but then don't go and get into a Land Cruiser."
  The rules say that anyone who earns more than $3,488 a year must pay income tax, but few do. Akbar Zaidi, a Karachi-based political
  economist with the Carnegie Endowment, estimates that as many as ro million Pakistanis should be paying income tax, far more than
  the 2.5 million who are registered.
  Out of more than 170 million Pakistanis, fewer than 2 percent pay income tax, making Pakistan's revenue from taxes among the lowest
  in the world, a notch below Sierra Leone's as a ratio of tax to gross domestic product.
  Mr. Zaidi blames the United States and its perpetual bailouts of Pakistan for the minuscule tax revenues from rich and poor alike. "The
  Americans should say: 'Enough. Sort it out yourselves. Get your house in order first,' "he argued. "But you are cowards. You are afraid
  to take that chance."
  Much of the tax avoidance, especially by the wealthy, is legal. Under a 1990s law that has become one of the main tools to legalize
  undocumented — or illegally obtained — money made in Pakistan, authorities here are not allowed to question money transferred from
  abroad. Businessmen and politicians channel billions of rupees through Dubai back to Pakistan, no questions asked.
  "In this country, no one asks, 'How did you get that flat in Mayfair?' " said Shabbar Zaidi, a partner at A. F. Ferguson & Company, an
  accounting firm in Karachi, referring to an affluent area of London. "It's a very good country for the rich man. Chauffeurs, servants, big
  houses. The question is, who is suffering? The common man."
  Then there are the tax-free goods supposedly meant for Afghanistan. Mr. Zaidi said much stayed in Pakistan illegally, including 5o,000
  tons of black tea that were imported last year. Afghans drink green tea.
  "As per our information, not a single cup of black tea was drunk in Afghanistan," he said.
  Tax collectors try to be tough. When Mr. Naqvi headed the tax authority, he tried to conduct a broad audit, prompting howls of protest.
  Lawyers from the Lahore High Court Bar Association — also evaders — even issued a ruling against him.

  Mr. Majeed said his collectors now use individual electric bills to track down rich evaders, on the assumption that high bills mean air-
  conditioning, which means wealth. They recently issued hundreds of warnings to rich houses in Islamabad. But going after politicians,
  he said, is tricky. "Not while they're in power," he said, smiling.
  Tax collection has risen by about 20 percent a year recently, he said, though it barely registers as an increase because more than half of
  Pakistan's economy is off the books.
  Lacking the political will to collect income tax, Pakistan resorts to easier measures, like the sales tax, considered less fair because it hits
  the poor as hard as the rich. Muhamed Azhar, 26, a chauffeur in Karachi with a $123-a-month salary, pays the same sales tax rate as a
  National Assembly member who makes $1,400 a month with benefits. Earnings from real estate and land are rarely declared.
  "The big people ruling us have houses and servants, and they should pay taxes," Mr. Azhar said, watching motorcades of sport utility
  vehicles zip by, en route to the local Parliament. He sometimes wonders whether they are even going to work at all. With all the tinted
  windows, guards and fuss, he has never actually seen them.
  The overwhelming majority of Pakistan's tax burden is carried by the manufacturing sector for the domestic market, which, according to
  Mr. Majeed, makes up only 19 percent of Pakistan's economy but pays 51 percent of its taxes.
  Most economic activity takes place in the shadows. Merchants — the most vociferous opponents of a value-added tax, a tax the
  International Monetary Fund has pressed Pakistan to adopt largely because it would require documentation — make up a fifth of the
  economy, but carry 6 percent of its tax burden. Out of millions of shops in Pakistan, just i6o,000 are now registered for a general sales
  tax, Mr. Majeed said.
  Particularly galling for Pakistan's middle class is the lack of a federal tax on agriculture, an industry that employs nearly half of
  Pakistan's population and whose profits go largely to the wealthy landowners who pack local Parliaments. When the World Bank finally
  forced adoption of a modest provincial tax in 1997 as a condition for a loan, few paid.
  Mr. Tareen, the member of Parliament, said that when he first tried to pay, tax collectors refused to take the money, not wanting to rock
  the boat. He had to write a letter to a senior official to have it accepted.
  It was not always like this. Nasir Aslam Zahid, a former Supreme Court justice in his 70s, blames what he calls moral decay in Pakistani
  society, in which respect for rules has fallen, merit has been forgotten and cheating has become a way of life.
  "In my time, it was considered a moral thing for a person to file a tax return," he said. "Today, corruption has broken all records."
  Salman Masood contributed reporting.

  The Committee circulated a suballocations report to Full Committee members in advance of tomorrow's Full Committee
  mark-up on the Mil/Qual and Transpo/HUD bills. Adoption of that report will be the first order of business. The S-FOPS
  allocation proposed in that report is $53.983 billion, which is $1.327 billion above our provisional allocation and the
  Subcommittee mark. We expect that our Minority Members will oppose the additional funds.

  Just spoke to Doug Frantz. A little intel (or not).
  As you know, Menendez is driving the train on the June 29th hearing. He will chair. Lautenberg has requested the
  opportunity to ask questions from the dais, but right now the Committee is pushing back saying they don't want this to
  devolve into a circus.
  Committee may ask State and/or DOJ to produce witness/es who can speak to the agreements entered into that
  permitted Megrahi to be prosecuted and jailed in Scotland in the first place. From State, they're not sure if that's
  someone from EUR, NEA, or elsewhere within the Department. This would be at the Committee's insistence and not
  necessarily Menendez's.
  I asked who they think Menendez might want to call as a witness. They said Tony Blair. I laughed. They didn't. Am told
  the Committee is discouraging Menendez from even making the request. We'll see.

  State Department is taking right steps to foster Internet freedom
  Wednesday, July 21, 2010; Al8
  BILLIONS OF people live in countries where the Internet is not free. Confined behind the elaborate firewalls of
  authoritarian regimes such as China and Iran, they find their rights to expression threatened online and off-- by
  elaborate systems of monitoring and censorship and by harsh laws that punish bloggers with imprisonment or
  even death.
  In January, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton spoke powerfully in support of Internet freedom, saying,
  "We stand for a single Internet where all of humanity has equal access to knowledge and ideas. And we
  recognize that the world's information infrastructure will become what we and others make of it."
  Since then, the State Department has brought the issue of online freedom to the table in its diplomacy around
  the world and joined with Internet providers and social media companies to foster public-private partnership in
  Internet freedom. Such collaboration is key, since authoritarian regimes so often contract out the daily work of
  censorship to private companies.
  Congress, too, has showed commitment to openness online, allocating $35 million in funding between the 2009
  and 2010 budgets for work that promotes Internet freedom. This money has yet to be spent, but the State
  Department finally has sent the names of designated recipients of the 2009 budget's $5 million in Internet
  freedom funding to Congress for its approval and soon will begin the process for distributing this year's grants.
  As it moves forward on this vital issue, the State Department must carefully determine how best to spend its
  limited resources. Yes, there is no silver bullet to guarantee freedom on the Internet. But it is possible to do

  great good with available funds. Investing in censorship-circumvention techniques like those that powered
  Tehran's "Twitter revolution" in June 2009 could have a tremendous, measurable impact.
  Although this solution is not without its problems -- the best-known provider of this software is the Falun Gong-
  affiliated Global Internet Freedom consortium, and users behind China's Great Firewall may mistrust the
  technology of a group their government has banned -- the State Department must seriously consider channeling
  funds to organizations that have demonstrated great potential to make a difference.
  The State Department is attempting a more holistic approach to Internet freedom, spreading funds across a
  variety of projects. Monitoring the efficacy of chosen solutions and rewarding those that produce results will be
  essential as this program continues.
  A cyberspace without walls or barriers, where people can assemble and express themselves freely, without fear
  of censorship or imprisonment, will make the world safer for the United States and for democracies everywhere.
  Continued public-private partnership, prioritization of Internet freedom in diplomacy and the wise deployment
  of allocated funds will move this ideal closer to reality.

  HANOI - Secretary Clinton expressed concern over Vietnam's arrests of dissidents, attacks on religious groups and curbs
  on Internet freedom, but said the countries remained friends. The United States and Communist-run Vietnam marked
  15 years of diplomatic ties this month and Clinton said the two countries had "learned to see each other not as former
  enemies but as actual and potential partners, colleagues and friends. We have consistently moved in the direction of
  engagement and cooperation, even on those issues where we disagree." Clinton spoke during a two-day visit to Hanoi
  for the Asia-Pacific region's biggest security dialogue.

  'Inept' US cannot fix Afghanistan: top Saudi prince Sun, May 16, 2010
  RIYADH (AFP)— An "inept" United States cannot fix Afghanistan's problems and should simply focus on "chasing the
  terrorists" there, former Saudi intelligence chief Prince Turki al-Faisal said on Saturday.
  The ex-ambassador to the United States also challenged Washington to produce results in just-started Middle East
  peace talks, and accused US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton of undermining efforts to make the region nuclear-free.
  AFP — Saudi Arabia's former intelligence chief Prince Turki al-Faisal delivers a speech during a conference ...
  In a speech in Riyadh before diplomats, Turki said US-led NATO troops had irrevocably alienated the Afghan people and
  had no hope of rebuilding the country.
  "What Afghanistan needs now is a shift from nation-building to effectively countering terrorists," Turki told the Arab
  News conference.
  US President Barack Obama "should not be misdirected into believing that he can fix Afghanistan's ills by military
  means."
  "Hunt down the terrorists on both sides of the Afghan-Pakistan border, arrest them or kill them, and get out, and let the
  Afghan people deal with their problems.
  "As long as GI boots remain on Afghan soil, they remain targets of resistance for the Afghan people and ideological
  mercenaries."
  Turki, who has long served a central role in Saudi-Afghan relations, scolded Washington's handling of relations with
  Kabul.
  "The inept way in which this administration has dealt with President (Hamid) Karzai beggars disbelief and amazement.
  "Both sides are now filled with resentment and a sour taste in their mouths," he said. "How can they both get out of that
  situation? I don't know."
  The chairman of the King Faisal Center For Research and Islamic Studies, Turki has no official position but is believed to
  often reflect high level thinking in the Saudi government.
  He is the brother of Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal, and analysts speculate he could become foreign minister
  when Saud retires.
  Turki said Arab states have given Washington four months to show progress in US-guided Palestinian-Israeli peace talks.
  "The Arab world has given Obama until September to get things done," said Turki.
  "It is not enough to talk the talk. He has to walk the walk.
  "If he does not succeed... then I (will) ask President Obama to do the morally decent gesture and recognise the
  Palestinian state that he so ardently wishes to exist.
  "He can then pack up and leave us in peace and let the Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese negotiate directly with the
  Israelis. No more platitudes and good wishes and visions, please."
  Turki also faulted the US and European approach in trying to halt Iran's alleged efforts to build a nuclear weapon.
  "The discussions on Iran's nuclear ambitions started off on the wrong foot. The carrot and stick approach does not
  work," he said.
  For one, he said, the US and Europe have had double-standards in dealing with Iran on the one hand, and other nuclear
  countries on the other.
  "You cannot ask Iran to play on one level while you allow Israel, India, Pakistan, and North Korea to play on other levels."
  Turki said a successful strategy toward Iran requires even-handedness, a "universal nuclear security umbrella" for the
  countries in the area, and "a good military option" against any regional country which does not cooperate.
  He said Clinton had undermined efforts to move toward a regional nuclear-free zone, after the UN Security Council's five
  permanent members recently expressed support for the idea.
  "Alas... Clinton then voided the issue of its value by stating that the conditions do not yet exist for establishing the zone,"
  he said.
  "Why, then, did she join the other members of the P5 in issuing their statement?"
  Turki said he hoped Obama "will find the way to correct his secretary of state's nullification of making our area free of
  weapons of mass destruction."
  Turki also warned of rising violence in Iraq after the pullout of US troops next year, warning both internal and external
  groups seek to carve up the country.
  "Imagine what will happen once internal strife and fighting escalates" following the US pullout, he said.
  Without a UN Security Council effort to protect Iraq's current borders, the consequence could be "regional conflict on a
  scale not seen since the Ottoman-Safavid wars of the 17th and 18th centuries," he warned.

  The chairman of the King Faisal Center For Research and Islamic Studies, Turki has no official position but is believed to
  often reflect high level thinking in the Saudi government.
  He is the brother of Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal, and analysts speculate he could become foreign minister
  when Saud retires.
  Turki said Arab states have given Washington four months to show progress in US-guided Palestinian-Israeli peace talks.
  "The Arab world has given Obama until September to get things done," said Turki.

  "It is not enough to talk the talk. He has to walk the walk.
  "If he does not succeed... then I (will) ask President Obama to do the morally decent gesture and recognise the
  Palestinian state that he so ardently wishes to exist.
  "He can then pack up and leave us in peace and let the Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese negotiate directly with the
  Israelis. No more platitudes and good wishes and visions, please."
  Turki also faulted the US and European approach in trying to halt Iran's alleged efforts to build a nuclear weapon.
  "The discussions on Iran's nuclear ambitions started off on the wrong foot. The carrot and stick approach does not
  work," he said.
  For one, he said, the US and Europe have had double-standards in dealing with Iran on the one hand, and other nuclear
  countries on the other.
  "You cannot ask Iran to play on one level while you allow Israel, India, Pakistan, and North Korea to play on other levels."
  Turki said a successful strategy toward Iran requires even-handedness, a "universal nuclear security umbrella" for the
  countries in the area, and "a good military option" against any regional country which does not cooperate.
  He said Clinton had undermined efforts to move toward a regional nuclear-free zone, after the UN Security Council's five
  permanent members recently expressed support for the idea.
  "Alas... Clinton then voided the issue of its value by stating that the conditions do not yet exist for establishing the zone,"
  he said.
  "Why, then, did she join the other members of the P5 in issuing their statement?"
  Turki said he hoped Obama "will find the way to correct his secretary of state's nullification of making our area free of
  weapons of mass destruction."
  Turki also warned of rising violence in Iraq after the pullout of US troops next year, warning both internal and external
  groups seek to carve up the country.
  "Imagine what will happen once internal strife and fighting escalates" following the US pullout, he said.
  Without a UN Security Council effort to protect Iraq's current borders, the consequence could be "regional conflict on a
  scale not seen since the Ottoman-Safavid wars of the 17th and 18th centuries," he warned.

  'Inept' US cannot fix Afghanistan: top Saudi prince Sun, May 16, 2010
  RIYADH (AFP) — An "inept" United States cannot fix Afghanistan's problems and should simply focus on "chasing the
  terrorists" there, former Saudi intelligence chief Prince Turki al-Faisal said on Saturday.
  The ex-ambassador to the United States also challenged Washington to produce results in just-started Middle East
  peace talks, and accused US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton of undermining efforts to make the region nuclear-free.
  AFP — Saudi Arabia's former intelligence chief Prince Turki al-Faisal delivers a speech during a conference ...
  In a speech in Riyadh before diplomats, Turki said US-led NATO troops had irrevocably alienated the Afghan people and
  had no hope of rebuilding the country.
  "What Afghanistan needs now is a shift from nation-building to effectively countering terrorists," Turki told the Arab
  News conference.
  US President Barack Obama "should not be misdirected into believing that he can fix Afghanistan's ills by military
  means."
  "Hunt down the terrorists on both sides of the Afghan-Pakistan border, arrest them or kill them, and get out, and let the
  Afghan people deal with their problems.

  "As long as GI boots remain on Afghan soil, they remain targets of resistance for the Afghan people and ideological
  mercenaries."
  Turki, who has long served a central role in Saudi-Afghan relations, scolded Washington's handling of relations with
  Kabul.
  "The inept way in which this administration has dealt with President (Hamid) Karzai beggars disbelief and amazement.

  STATEMENT BY SECRETARY CLINTON
  Conflict Minerals in the Democratic Republic of Congo
  Last year in the Democratic Republic of Congo, I spoke out against the trade in "conflict minerals" that has
  funded a cycle of conflict there that has left more than 5 million people dead since 1998, displaced countless
  more, and spawned an epidemic of sexual and gender-based violence.
  President Obama has now signed into law a measure that will require corporations to publicly disclose what
  they are doing to ensure that their products don't contain these minerals. The DRC has formally expressed its
  support for this law and has thanked both the executive and legislative branches of our government. This is one
  of several steps we are taking to stop this illicit and deadly trade.
  After my visit to the Congo, I directed the State Department to develop a holistic strategy on this issue as part of
  our broader effort to engage effectively with the DRC. We continue to work with the government to crack
  down on corruption, both bilaterally and through the Great Lakes Contact Group. At the United Nations
  Security Council, we successfully pushed to expand the listing criteria in the DRC Sanctions Committee to
  include those supporting illegal armed groups through illicit trade of natural resources. We have provided
  support for initiatives on certification and due diligence that have been initiated by the government of the DRC,
  local and foreign industry groups, and regional and international institutions. And we have met with a wide
  range of industry representatives and discussed the responsibility of end-users to ensure their supply chains are
  free of conflict minerals.
  All of these steps underscore the commitment of the United States to stand with the people of Congo and to
  work toward an end to this conflict.

  WASHINGTON (AP) - The Obama administration targeted key leaders of Afghanistan's Taliban with new financial
  sanctions Thursday in a move that could complicate relations with Pakistan and Afghan efforts to reconcile with
  insurgents.
  The action by the Treasury Department will freeze the militants' assets, ban travel and trigger an arms embargo. It
  follows similar action by the United Nations earlier this week, and comes after calls from Gen. David Petraeus, the top
  military commander in Afghanistan, and Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, for
  sanctions against Afghan insurgent commanders operating in Pakistan.
  Taken together, the U.S. and U.N. sanctions prohibit any financial transactions of the terror leaders in U.N. member
  countries, putting additional pressure on Pakistan to take broader actions against the Taliban militants.
  Three financial kingpins were targeted with sanctions, including a key member of the Haqqani network, which,directs
  operations against U.S. and coalition forces in Afghanistan from safe havens in Pakistan. Among those sanctioned
  Thursday was Nasiruddin Haqqani, an emissary for the Haqqani Network and brother of Sirajuddin Haqqani who leads
  the group with his father, Jalaluddin.
  Others sanctioned included Gul Agha Ishakzai, the head of the Taliban's financial commission and Amir Abdullah, the
  former treasurer to captured Taliban leader Mullah Abdul Ghani Barader. The sanctions placed on the three leaders as
  terrorists would deprive them of the assets they need to fund their terror operations, said Adam J. Szubin, director of
  Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control. "We will continue to aggressively work to expose and dismantle the financial
  networks of terrorist groups in support of the president's goal of a stable Afghanistan," he said.
  According to officials, lshakzai is the head of the Taliban's financial commission, has collected money for suicide attacks
  in Kandahar, Afghanistan, and has been involved in the disbursement of funds for Taliban fighters. He has served as a
  main financial officer and close adviser to Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar. Abdullah has reportedly traveled to
  Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Libya and the United Arab Emirates to raise money for the Taliban and facilitate meetings and
  communications with key leaders. Nasiruddin Haqqani has collected funds for the Haqqani group, including from al-
  Qaida. Last week, Gen. David Petraeus, the top military commander in Afghanistan, urged officials to add commanders
  from the Haqqani network to the terrorist list. At the time, administration officials said a review was under way, largely
  accelerated after the May 1 failed Times Square bombing. The man who has pleaded guilty in the New York incident,
  Pakistani-born American Faisal Shahzad, said he trained with the Pakistani Taliban to build bombs, then returned to the
  U.S. to launch an attack that would avenge attacks on Muslims by U.S. forces overseas.

  H: I'm sure you are preoccupied with the adventures of Lula, et al. Nonetheless, the article below, just posted by the NY
  Review, soon to be published, is a breakthrough piece that will have a large impact. It's worth reading, not least for Frank
  Luntz's poll numbers. The hysterical tone of much of the Israeli leadership and US Jewish community is partly rooted in
  this long-term and profound development. Sid

  The Failure of the American Jewish Establishment
  June 10, 2010
  by Peter Beinart

  In 2003, several prominent Jewish philanthropists hired Republican pollster Frank Luntz to explain why American Jewish
  college students were not more vigorously rebutting campus criticism of Israel. In response, he unwittingly produced the
  most damning indictment of the organized American Jewish community that I have ever seen.
  The philanthropists wanted to know what Jewish students thought about Israel. Luntz found that they mostly didn't. "Six
  times we have brought Jewish youth together as a group to talk about their Jewishness and connection to Israel," he
  reported. "Six times the topic of Israel did not come up until it was prompted. Six times these Jewish youth used the word
  'they' rather than'us` to describe the situation."
  That Luntz encountered indifference was not surprising. In recent years, several studies have revealed, in the words of
  Steven Cohen of Hebrew Union College and An Kelman of the University of California at Davis, that "non-Orthodox
  younger Jews, on the whole, feel much less attached to Israel than their elders," with many professing "a near-total
  absence of positive feelings." In 2008, the student senate at Brandeis, the only nonsectarian Jewish-sponsored university
  in America, rejected a resolution commemorating the sixtieth anniversary of the Jewish state.
  Luntz's task was to figure out what had gone wrong. When he probed the students' views of Israel, he hit up against some
  firm beliefs. First, "they reserve the right to question the Israeli position." These young Jews, Luntz explained, "resist
  anything they see as 'group think." They want an "open and frank" discussion of Israel and its flaws. Second, "young
  Jews desperately want peace." When Luntz showed them a series of ads, one of the most popular was entitled "Proof that
  Israel Wants Peace," and listed offers by various Israeli governments to withdraw from conquered land. Third, "some
  empathize with the plight of the Palestinians." When Luntz displayed ads depicting Palestinians as violent and hateful,
  several focus group participants criticized them as stereotypical and unfair, citing their own Muslim friends.
  Most of the students, in other words, were liberals, broadly defined. They had imbibed some of the defining values of
  American Jewish political culture: a belief in open debate, a skepticism about military force, a commitment to human
  rights. And in their innocence, they did not realize that they were supposed to shed those values when it came to Israel.
  The only kind of Zionism they found attractive was a Zionism that recognized Palestinians as deserving of dignity and
  capable of peace, and they were quite willing to condemn an Israeli government that did not share those beliefs. Luntz did
  not grasp the irony. The only kind of Zionism they found attractive was the kind that the American Jewish establishment
  has been working against for most of their lives.
  Among American Jews today, there are a great many Zionists, especially in the Orthodox world, people deeply devoted to
  the State of Israel. And there are a great many liberals, especially in the secular Jewish world, people deeply devoted to
  human rights for all people, Palestinians included. But the two groups are increasingly distinct. Particularly in the younger
  generations, fewer and fewer American Jewish liberals are Zionists; fewer and fewer American Jewish Zionists are liberal.
  One reason is that the leading institutions of American Jewry have refused to foster—indeed, have actively opposed—a
  Zionism that challenges Israel's behavior in the West Bank and Gaza Strip and toward its own Arab citizens. For several
  decades, the Jewish establishment has asked American Jews to check their liberalism at Zionism's door, and now, to their
  horror, they are finding that many young Jews have checked their Zionism instead.
  Morally, American Zionism is in a downward spiral. If the leaders of groups like AIPAC and the Conference of Presidents
  of Major American Jewish Organizations do not change course, they will wake up one day to find a younger, Orthodox-
  dominated, Zionist leadership whose naked hostility to Arabs and Palestinians scares even them, and a mass of secular
  American Jews who range from apathetic to appalled. Saving liberal Zionism in the United States—so that American Jews
  can help save liberal Zionism in Israel—is the great American Jewish challenge of our age. And it starts where Luntz's
  students wanted it to start: by talking frankly about Israel's current government, by no longer averting our eyes.
  Since the 1990s, journalists and scholars have been describing a bifurcation in Israeli society. In the words of Hebrew
  University political scientist Yaron Ezrahi, "After decades of what came to be called a national consensus, the Zionist
  narrative of liberation [has] dissolved into openly contesting versions." One version, "founded on a long memory of
  persecution, genocide, and a bitter struggle for survival, is pessimistic, distrustful of non-Jews, and believing only in
  Jewish power and solidarity." Another, "nourished by secularized Versions of messianism as well as the Enlightenment
  idea of progress," articulates "a deep sense of the limits of military force, and a commitment to liberal-democratic values."
  Every country manifests some kind of ideological divide. But in contemporary Israel, the gulf is among the widest on earth.
  As Ezrahi and others have noted, this latter, liberal-democratic Zionism has grown alongside a new individualism,
  particularly among secular Israelis, a greater demand for free expression, and a greater skepticism of coercive authority.
  You can see this spirit in "new historians" like Tom Segev who have fearlessly excavated the darker corners of the Zionist
  past and in jurists like former Supreme Court President Aharon Barak who have overturned Knesset laws that violate the
  human rights guarantees in Israel's "Basic Laws." You can also see it in former Prime Minister Ehud Barak's apparent
  willingness to relinquish much of the West Bank in 2000 and early 2001.
  But in Israel today, this humane, universalistic Zionism does not wield power. To the contrary, it is gasping for air. To
  understand how deeply antithetical its values are to those of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government, it's worth
  considering the case of Effi Eitam. Eitam, a charismatic ex–cabinet minister and war hero, has proposed ethnically
  cleansing Palestinians from the West Bank. "We'll have to expel the overwhelming majority of West Bank Arabs from here
  and remove Israeli Arabs from [the] political system," he declared in 2006. In 2008, Eitam merged his small Ahi Party into
  Netanyahu's Likud. And for the 2009-2010 academic year, he is Netanyahu's special emissary for overseas "campus
  engagement." In that capacity, he visited a dozen American high schools and colleges last fall on the Israeli government's
  behalf. The group that organized his tour was called "Caravan for Democracy."
  Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman once shared Eitam's views. In his youth, he briefly joined Meir Kahane's now
  banned Kach Party, which also advocated the expulsion of Arabs from Israeli soil. Now Lieberman's position might be
  called "pre-expulsion." He wants to revoke the citizenship of Israeli Arabs who won't swear a loyalty oath to the Jewish
  state. He tried to prevent two Arab parties that opposed Israel's 2008-2009 Gaza war from running candidates for the
  Knesset. He said Arab Knesset members who met with representatives of Hamas should be executed. He wants to jail
  Arabs who publicly mourn on Israeli Independence Day, and he hopes to permanently deny citizenship to Arabs from
  other countries who marry Arab citizens of Israel.
  You don't have to be paranoid to see the connection between Lieberman's current views and his former ones. The more
  you strip Israeli Arabs of legal protection, and the more you accuse them of treason, the more thinkable a policy of
  expulsion becomes. Lieberman's American defenders often note that in theory he supports a Palestinian state. What they
  usually fail to mention is that for him, a two-state solution means redrawing Israel's border so that a large chunk of Israeli
  Arabs find themselves exiled to another country, without their consent.
  Lieberman served as chief of staff during Netanyahu's first term as prime minister. And when it comes to the West Bank,
  Netanyahu's own record is in its way even more extreme than his protégé's. In his 1993 book, A Place among the
  Nations, Netanyahu not only rejects the idea of a Palestinian state, he denies that there is such a thing as a Palestinian. In
  fact, he repeatedly equates the Palestinian bid for statehood with Nazism. An Israel that withdraws from the West Bank,
  he has declared, would be a "ghetto-state" with "Auschwitz borders." And the effort "to gouge Judea and Samaria [the
  West Bank] out of Israel" resembles Hitler's bid to wrench the German-speaking "Sudeten district" from Czechoslovakia in
  1938. It is unfair, Netanyahu insists, to ask Israel to concede more territory since it has already made vast, gut-wrenching
  concessions. What kind of concessions? It has abandoned its claim to Jordan, which by rights should be part of the
  Jewish state.
  On the left of Netanyahu's coalition sits Ehud Barak's emasculated Labor Party, but whatever moderating potential it may
  have is counterbalanced by what is, in some ways, the most illiberal coalition partner of all, Shas, the ultra-Orthodox party
  representing Jews of North African and Middle Eastern descent. At one point, Shas—like some of its Ashkenazi ultra-
  Orthodox counterparts—was open to dismantling settlements. In recent years, however, ultra-Orthodox Israelis, anxious
  to find housing for their large families, have increasingly moved to the West Bank, where thanks to government subsidies
  it is far cheaper to live. Not coincidentally, their political parties have swung hard against territorial compromise. And they
  have done so with a virulence that reflects ultra-Orthodox Judaism's profound hostility to liberal values. Rabbi Ovadia
  Yosef, Shas's immensely powerful spiritual leader, has called Arabs "vipers," "snakes," and "ants." In 2005, after Prime
  Minister Ariel Sharon proposed dismantling settlements in the Gaza Strip, Yosef urged that "God strike him down." The
  official Shas newspaper recently called President Obama "an Islamic extremist."
  Hebrew University Professor Ze'ev Sternhell is an expert on fascism and a winner of the prestigious Israel Prize.
  Commenting on Lieberman and the leaders of Shas in a recent Op-Ed in Haaretz, he wrote, "The last time politicians
  holding views similar to theirs were in power in post–World War II Western Europe was in Franco's Spain." With their
  blessing, "a crude and multifaceted campaign is being waged against the foundations of the democratic and liberal order."
  Sternhell should know. In September 2008, he was injured when a settler set off a pipe bomb at his house.
  Israeli governments come and go, but the Netanyahu coalition is the product of frightening, long-term trends in Israeli
  society: an ultra-Orthodox population that is increasing dramatically, a settler movement that is growing more radical and
  more entrenched in the Israeli bureaucracy and army, and a Russian immigrant community that is particularly prone to
  anti-Arab racism. In 2009, a poll by the Israel Democracy Institute found that 53 percent of Jewish Israelis (and 77 percent
  of recent immigrants from the former USSR) support encouraging Arabs to leave the country. Attitudes are worst among
  Israel's young. When Israeli high schools held mock elections last year, Lieberman won. This March, a poll found that 56
  percent of Jewish Israeli high school students—and more than 80 percent of religious Jewish high school students—
  would deny Israeli Arabs the right to be elected to the Knesset. An education ministry official called the survey "a huge
  warning signal in light of the strengthening trends of extremist views among the youth."
  You might think that such trends, and the sympathy for them expressed by some in Israel's government, would occasion
  substantial public concern—even outrage—among the leaders of organized American Jewry. You would be wrong. In
  Israel itself, voices from the left, and even center, warn in increasingly urgent tones about threats to Israeli democracy.
  (Former Prime Ministers Ehud Olmert and Ehud Barak have both said that Israel risks becoming an "apartheid state" if it
  continues to hold the West Bank. This April, when settlers forced a large Israeli bookstore to stop selling a book critical of
  the occupation, Shulamit Aloni, former head of the dovish Meretz Party, declared that "Israel has not been democratic for
  some time now.") But in the United States, groups like AIPAC and the Presidents' Conference patrol public discourse,
  scolding people who contradict their vision of Israel as a state in which all leaders cherish democracy and yearn
  for peace.
  The result is a terrible irony. In theory, mainstream American Jewish organizations still hew to a liberal vision of Zionism.
  On its website, AIPAC celebrates Israel's commitment to "free speech and minority rights." The Conference of Presidents
  declares that "Israel and the United States share political, moral and intellectual values including democracy, freedom,
  security and peace." These groups would never say, as do some in Netanyahu's coalition, that Israeli Arabs don't deserve
  full citizenship and West Bank Palestinians don't deserve human rights. But in practice, by defending virtually anything
  any Israeli government does, they make themselves intellectual bodyguards for Israeli leaders who threaten the very
  liberal values they profess to admire.
  After Israel's elections last February, for instance, Malcolm Hoenlein, executive vice-chairman of the Presidents'
  Conference, explained that Avigdor Lieberman's agenda was "far more moderate than the media has presented it."
  Insisting that Lieberman bears no general animus toward Israeli Arabs, Abraham Foxman, national director of the Anti-
  Defamation League, told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that "He's not saying expel them. He's not saying punish them."
  (Permanently denying citizenship to their Arab spouses or jailing them if they publicly mourn on Israeli Independence Day
  evidently does not qualify as punishment.) The ADL has criticized anti-Arab bigotry in the past, and the American Jewish
  Committee, to its credit, warned that Lieberman's proposed loyalty oath would "chill Israel's democratic political debate."
  But the Forward summed up the overall response of America's communal Jewish leadership in its headline "Jewish
  Leaders Largely Silent on Lieberman's Role in Government."
  Not only does the organized American Jewish community mostly avoid public criticism of the Israeli government, it tries to
  prevent others from leveling such criticism as well. In recent years, American Jewish organizations have waged a
  campaign to discredit the world's most respected international human rights groups. In 2006, Foxman called an Amnesty
  International report on Israeli killing of Lebanese civilians "bigoted, biased, and borderline anti-Semitic." The Conference
  of Presidents has announced that "biased NGOs include Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, Christian Aid, [and]
  Save the Children." Last summer, an AIPAC spokesman declared that Human Rights Watch "has repeatedly
  demonstrated its anti-Israel bias." When the Obama administration awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Mary
  Robinson, former UN high commissioner for human rights, the ADL and AIPAC both protested, citing the fact that she had
  presided over the 2001 World Conference Against Racism in Durban, South Africa. (Early drafts of the conference report
  implicitly accused Israel of racism. Robinson helped expunge that defamatory charge, angering Syria and Iran.)
  Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International are not infallible. But when groups like AIPAC and the Presidents'
  Conference avoid virtually all public criticism of Israeli actions—directing their outrage solely at Israel's neighbors—they
  leave themselves in a poor position to charge bias. Moreover, while American Jewish groups claim that they are simply
  defending Israel from its foes, they are actually taking sides in a struggle within Israel between radically different Zionist
  visions. At the very moment the Anti-Defamation League claimed that Robinson harbored an "animus toward Israel," an
  alliance of seven Israeli human rights groups publicly congratulated her on her award. Many of those groups, like
  B'Tselem, which monitors Israeli actions in the Occupied Territories, and the Israeli branch of Physicians for Human
  Rights, have been at least as critical of Israel's actions in Lebanon, Gaza, and the West Bank as have Amnesty
  International and Human Rights Watch.
  All of which raises an uncomfortable question. If American Jewish groups claim that Israel's overseas human rights critics
  are motivated by anti- Israeli, if not anti-Semitic, bias, what does that say about Israel's domestic human rights critics?
  The implication is clear: they must be guilty of self-hatred, if not treason. American Jewish leaders don't generally say
  that, of course, but their allies in the Netanyahu government do. Last summer, Israel's vice prime minister, Moshe Ya'alon,
  called the anti-occupation group Peace Now a "virus." This January, a right-wing group called Im Tirtzu accused Israeli
  human rights organizations of having fed information to the Goldstone Commission that investigated Israel's Gaza war. A
  Knesset member from Netanyahu's Likud promptly charged Naomi Chazan, head of the New Israel Fund, which supports
  some of those human rights groups, with treason, and a member of Lieberman's party launched an investigation aimed at
  curbing foreign funding of Israeli NG0s.
  To their credit, Foxman and other American Jewish leaders opposed the move, which might have impaired their own
  work. But they are reaping what they sowed. If you suggest that mainstream human rights criticism of Israel's government
  is motivated by animus toward the state, or toward Jews in general, you give aid and comfort to those in Israel who make
  the same charges against the human rights critics in their midst.
  In the American Jewish establishment today, the language of liberal Zionism—with its idioms of human rights, equal
  citizenship, and territorial compromise—has been drained of meaning. It remains the lingua franca in part for generational
  reasons, because many older American Zionists still see themselves as liberals of a sort. They vote Democratic; they are
  unmoved by biblical claims to the West Bank; they see average Palestinians as decent people betrayed by bad leaders;
  and they are secular. They don't want Jewish organizations to criticize Israel from the left, but neither do they want them
  to be agents of the Israeli right.
  These American Zionists are largely the product of a particular era. Many were shaped by the terrifying days leading up to
  the Six-Day War, when it appeared that Israel might be overrun, and by the bitter aftermath of the Yom Kippur War, when
  much of the world seemed to turn against the Jewish state. In that crucible, Israel became their Jewish identity, often in
  conjunction with the Holocaust, which the 1967 and 1973 wars helped make central to American Jewish life. These Jews
  embraced Zionism before the settler movement became a major force in Israeli politics, before the 1982 Lebanon war,
  before the first intifada. They fell in love with an Israel that was more secular, less divided, and less shaped by the culture,
  politics, and theology of occupation. And by downplaying the significance of Avigdor Lieberman, the settlers, and Shas,
  American Jewish groups allow these older Zionists to continue to identify with that more internally cohesive, more
  innocent Israel of their youth, an Israel that now only exists in their memories.
  But these secular Zionists aren't reproducing themselves. Their children have no memory of Arab armies massed on
  Israel's border and of Israel surviving in part thanks to urgent military assistance from the United States. Instead, they
  have grown up viewing Israel as a regional hegemon and an occupying power. As a result, they are more conscious than
  their parents of the degree to which Israeli behavior violates liberal ideals, and less willing to grant Israel an exemption
  because its survival seems in peril. Because they have inherited their parents' liberalism, they cannot embrace their
  uncritical Zionism. Because their liberalism is real, they can see that the liberalism of the American Jewish establishment
  is fake.
  To sustain their uncritical brand of Zionism, therefore, America's Jewish organizations will need to look elsewhere to
  replenish their ranks. They will need to find young American. Jews who have come of age during the West Bank
  occupation but are not troubled by it. And those young American Jews will come disproportionately from the
  Orthodox world.
  Because they marry earlier, intermarry less, and have more children, Orthodox Jews are growing rapidly as a share of the
  American Jewish population. According to a 2006 American Jewish Committee (AJC) survey, while Orthodox Jews make
  up only 12 percent of American Jewry over the age of sixty, they constitute 34 percent between the ages of eighteen and
  twenty-four. For America's Zionist organizations, these Orthodox youngsters are a potential bonanza. In their yeshivas
  they learn devotion to Israel from an early age; they generally spend a year of religious study there after high school, and
  often know friends or relatives who have immigrated to Israel. The same AJC study found that while only 16 percent of
  non-Orthodox adult Jews under the age of forty feel "very close to Israel," among the Orthodox the figure is 79 percent. As
  secular Jews drift away from America's Zionist institutions, their Orthodox counterparts will likely step into the breach. The
  Orthodox "are still interested in parochial Jewish concerns," explains Samuel Heilman, a sociologist at the City University
  of New York. "They are among the last ones who stayed in the Jewish house, so they now control the lights."
  But it is this very parochialism—a deep commitment to Jewish concerns, which often outweighs more universal ones—
  that gives Orthodox Jewish Zionism a distinctly illiberal cast. The 2006 AJC poll found that while 60 percent of non-
  Orthodox American Jews under the age of forty support a Palestinian state, that figure drops to 25 percent among the
  Orthodox. In 2009, when Brandeis University's Theodore Sasson asked American Jewish focus groups about Israel, he
  found Orthodox participants much less supportive of dismantling settlements as part of a peace deal. Even more tellingly,
  Reform, Conservative, and unaffiliated Jews tended to believe that average Palestinians wanted peace, but had been ill-
  served by their leaders. Orthodox Jews, by contrast, were more likely to see the Palestinian people as the enemy, and to
  deny that ordinary Palestinians shared any common interests or values with ordinary Israelis or Jews.
  Orthodox Judaism has great virtues, including a communal warmth and a commitment to Jewish learning unmatched in
  the American Jewish world. (I'm biased, since my family attends an Orthodox synagogue.) But if current trends continue,
  the growing influence of Orthodox Jews in America's Jewish communal institutions will erode even the liberal-democratic
  veneer that today covers American Zionism. In 2002, America's major Jewish organizations sponsored a large Israel
  solidarity rally on the Washington Mall. Up and down the east coast, yeshivas shut down for the day, swelling the
  estimated Orthodox share of the crowd to close to 70 percent. When the then Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul
  Wolfowitz told the rally that "innocent Palestinians are suffering and dying as well," he was booed.
  America's Jewish leaders should think hard about that rally. Unless they change course, it portends the future: an
  American Zionist movement that does not even feign concern for Palestinian dignity and a broader American Jewish
  population that does not even feign concern for Israel. My own children, given their upbringing, could as easily end up
  among the booers as among Luntz's focus group. Either prospect fills me with dread.
  In 2004, in an effort to prevent weapons smuggling from Egypt, Israeli tanks and bulldozers demolished hundreds of
  houses in the Rafah refugee camp in the southern Gaza Strip. Watching television, a veteran Israeli commentator and
  politician named Tommy Lapid saw an elderly Palestinian woman crouched on all fours looking for her medicines amid the
  ruins of her home. He said she reminded him of his grandmother.
  In that moment, Lapid captured the spirit that is suffocating within organized American Jewish life. To begin with, he
  watched. In my experience, there is an epidemic of not watching among American Zionists today. A Red Cross study on
  malnutrition in the Gaza Strip, a bill in the Knesset to allow Jewish neighborhoods to bar entry to Israeli Arabs, an Israeli
  human rights report on settlers burning Palestinian olive groves, three more Palestinian teenagers shot—it's unpleasant.
  Rationalizing and minimizing Palestinian suffering has become a kind of game. In a more recent report on how to foster
  Zionism among America's young, Luntz urges American Jewish groups to use the word "Arabs, not Palestinians," since
  "the term `Palestinians' evokes images of refugee camps, victims and oppression," while "Arab' says wealth, oil
  and Islam."
  Of course, Israel—like the United States—must sometimes take morally difficult actions in its own defense. But they are
  morally difficult only if you allow yourself some human connection to the other side. Otherwise, security justifies
  everything. The heads of AIPAC and the Presidents' Conference should ask themselves what Israel's leaders would have
  to do or say to make them scream "no." After all, Lieberman is foreign minister; Effi Eitam is touring American universities;
  settlements are growing at triple the rate of the Israeli population; half of Israeli Jewish high school students want Arabs
  barred from the Knesset. If the line has not yet been crossed, where is the line?
  What infuriated critics about Lapid's comment was that his grandmother died at Auschwitz. How dare he defile the
  memory of the Holocaust? Of course, the Holocaust is immeasurably worse than anything Israel has done or ever will do.
  •
  But at least Lapid used Jewish suffering to connect to the suffering of others. In the world of AIPAC, the Holocaust
  analogies never stop, and their message is always the same: Jews are licensed by their victimhood to worry only about
  themselves. Many of Israel's founders believed that with statehood, Jews would rightly be judged on the way they treated
  the non-Jews living under their dominion. "For the first time we shall be the majority living with a minority," Knesset
  member Pinchas Lavon declared in 1948, "and we shall be called upon to provide an example and prove how Jews live
  with a minority."
  But the message of the American Jewish establishment and its allies in the Netanyahu government is exactly the
  opposite: since Jews are history's permanent victims, always on the knife-edge of extinction, moral responsibility is a
  luxury Israel does not have. Its only responsibility is to survive. As former Knesset speaker Avraham Burg writes in his
  remarkable 2008 book, The Holocaust Is Over; We Must Rise From Its Ashes, "Victimhood sets you free."
  This obsession with victimhood lies at the heart of why Zionism is dying among America's secular Jewish young. It simply
  bears no relationship to their lived experience, or what they have seen of Israel's. Yes, Israel faces threats from Hezbollah
  and Hamas. Yes, Israelis understandably worry about a nuclear Iran. But the dilemmas you face when you possess
  dozens or hundreds of nuclear weapons, and your adversary, however despicable, may acquire one, are not the
  dilemmas of the Warsaw Ghetto. The year 2010 is not, as Benjamin Netanyahu has claimed, 1938. The drama of Jewish
  victimhood—a drama that feels natural to many Jews who lived through 1938, 1948, or even 1967—strikes most of
  today's young American Jews as farce.
  But there is a different Zionist calling, which has never been more desperately relevant. It has its roots in Israel's
  Independence Proclamation, which promised that the Jewish state "will be based on the precepts of liberty, justice and
  peace taught by the Hebrew prophets," and in the December 1948 letter from Albert Einstein, Hannah Arendt, and others
  to The New York Times, protesting right-wing Zionist leader Menachem Begin's visit to the United States after his party's
  militias massacred Arab civilians in the village of Deir Yassin. It is a call to recognize that in a world in which Jewish
  fortunes have radically changed, the best way to memorialize the history of Jewish suffering is through the ethical use of
  Jewish power.
  For several months now, a group of Israeli students has been traveling every Friday to the East Jerusalem neighborhood
  of Sheikh Jarrah, where a Palestinian family named the Ghawis lives on the street outside their home of fifty-three years,
  from which they were evicted to make room for Jewish settlers. Although repeatedly arrested for protesting without a
  permit, and called traitors and self-haters by the Israeli right, the students keep coming, their numbers now swelling into
  the thousands. What if American Jewish organizations brought these young people to speak at Hillel? What if this was the
  face of Zionism shown to America's Jewish young? What if the students in Luntz's focus group had been told that their
  generation faces a challenge as momentous as any in Jewish history: to save liberal democracy in the only Jewish state
  on earth?
  "Too many years I lived in the warm embrace of institutionalized elusiveness and was a part of it," writes Avraham Burg. "I
  was very comfortable there." I know; I was comfortable there too. But comfortable Zionism has become a moral
  abdication. Let's hope that Luntz's students, in solidarity with their counterparts at Sheikh Jarrah, can foster an
  uncomfortable Zionism, a Zionism angry at what Israel risks becoming, and in love with what it still could be. Let's hope
  they care enough to try.

  In 2003, several prominent Jewish philanthropists hired Republican pollster Frank Luntz to explain why American Jewish
  college students were not more vigorously rebutting campus criticism of Israel. In response, he unwittingly produced the
  most damning indictment of the organized American Jewish community that I have ever seen.
  The philanthropists wanted to know what Jewish students thought about Israel. Luntz found that they mostly didn't. "Six
  times we have brought Jewish youth together as a group to talk about their Jewishness and connection to Israel," he
  reported. "Six times the topic of Israel did not come up until it was prompted. Six times these Jewish youth used the word
  'they' rather than'us` to describe the situation."
  That Luntz encountered indifference was not surprising. In recent years, several studies have revealed, in the words of
  Steven Cohen of Hebrew Union College and An Kelman of the University of California at Davis, that "non-Orthodox
  younger Jews, on the whole, feel much less attached to Israel than their elders," with many professing "a near-total
  absence of positive feelings." In 2008, the student senate at Brandeis, the only nonsectarian Jewish-sponsored university
  in America, rejected a resolution commemorating the sixtieth anniversary of the Jewish state.
  Luntz's task was to figure out what had gone wrong. When he probed the students' views of Israel, he hit up against some
  firm beliefs. First, "they reserve the right to question the Israeli position." These young Jews, Luntz explained, "resist
  anything they see as 'group think." They want an "open and frank" discussion of Israel and its flaws. Second, "young
  Jews desperately want peace." When Luntz showed them a series of ads, one of the most popular was entitled "Proof that
  Israel Wants Peace," and listed offers by various Israeli governments to withdraw from conquered land. Third, "some
  empathize with the plight of the Palestinians." When Luntz displayed ads depicting Palestinians as violent and hateful,
  several focus group participants criticized them as stereotypical and unfair, citing their own Muslim friends.
  Most of the students, in other words, were liberals, broadly defined. They had imbibed some of the defining values of
  American Jewish political culture: a belief in open debate, a skepticism about military force, a commitment to human
  rights. And in their innocence, they did not realize that they were supposed to shed those values when it came to Israel.
  The only kind of Zionism they found attractive was a Zionism that recognized Palestinians as deserving of dignity and
  capable of peace, and they were quite willing to condemn an Israeli government that did not share those beliefs. Luntz did
  not grasp the irony. The only kind of Zionism they found attractive was the kind that the American Jewish establishment
  has been working against for most of their lives.
  Among American Jews today, there are a great many Zionists, especially in the Orthodox world, people deeply devoted to
  the State of Israel. And there are a great many liberals, especially in the secular Jewish world, people deeply devoted to
  human rights for all people, Palestinians included. But the two groups are increasingly distinct. Particularly in the younger
  generations, fewer and fewer American Jewish liberals are Zionists; fewer and fewer American Jewish Zionists are liberal.
  One reason is that the leading institutions of American Jewry have refused to foster—indeed, have actively opposed—a
  Zionism that challenges Israel's behavior in the West Bank and Gaza Strip and toward its own Arab citizens. For several

  decades, the Jewish establishment has asked American Jews to check their liberalism at Zionism's door, and now, to their
  horror, they are finding that many young Jews have checked their Zionism instead.
  Morally, American Zionism is in a downward spiral. If the leaders of groups like AIPAC and the Conference of Presidents
  of Major American Jewish Organizations do not change course, they will wake up one day to find a younger, Orthodox-
  dominated, Zionist leadership whose naked hostility to Arabs and Palestinians scares even them, and a mass of secular
  American Jews who range from apathetic to appalled. Saving liberal Zionism in the United States—so that American Jews
  can help save liberal Zionism in Israel—is the great American Jewish challenge of our age. And it starts where Luntz's
  students wanted it to start: by talking frankly about Israel's current government, by no longer averting our eyes.
  Since the 1990s, journalists and scholars have been describing a bifurcation in Israeli society. In the words of Hebrew
  University political scientist Yaron Ezrahi, "After decades of what came to be called a national consensus, the Zionist
  narrative of liberation [has] dissolved into openly contesting versions." One version, "founded on a long memory of
  persecution, genocide, and a bitter struggle for survival, is pessimistic, distrustful of non-Jews, and believing only in
  Jewish power and solidarity." Another, "nourished by secularized Versions of messianism as well as the Enlightenment
  idea of progress," articulates "a deep sense of the limits of military force, and a commitment to liberal-democratic values."
  Every country manifests some kind of ideological divide. But in contemporary Israel, the gulf is among the widest on earth.
  As Ezrahi and others have noted, this latter, liberal-democratic Zionism has grown alongside a new individualism,
  particularly among secular Israelis, a greater demand for free expression, and a greater skepticism of coercive authority.
  You can see this spirit in "new historians" like Tom Segev who have fearlessly excavated the darker corners of the Zionist
  past and in jurists like former Supreme Court President Aharon Barak who have overturned Knesset laws that violate the
  human rights guarantees in Israel's "Basic Laws." You can also see it in former Prime Minister Ehud Barak's apparent
  willingness to relinquish much of the West Bank in 2000 and early 2001.
  But in Israel today, this humane, universalistic Zionism does not wield power. To the contrary, it is gasping for air. To
  understand how deeply antithetical its values are to those of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government, it's worth
  considering the case of Effi Eitam. Eitam, a charismatic ex–cabinet minister and war hero, has proposed ethnically
  cleansing Palestinians from the West Bank. "We'll have to expel the overwhelming majority of West Bank Arabs from here
  and remove Israeli Arabs from [the] political system," he declared in 2006. In 2008, Eitam merged his small Ahi Party into
  Netanyahu's Likud. And for the 2009-2010 academic year, he is Netanyahu's special emissary for overseas "campus
  engagement." In that capacity, he visited a dozen American high schools and colleges last fall on the Israeli government's
  behalf. The group that organized his tour was called "Caravan for Democracy."
  Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman once shared Eitam's views. In his youth, he briefly joined Meir Kahane's now
  banned Kach Party, which also advocated the expulsion of Arabs from Israeli soil. Now Lieberman's position might be
  called "pre-expulsion." He wants to revoke the citizenship of Israeli Arabs who won't swear a loyalty oath to the Jewish
  state. He tried to prevent two Arab parties that opposed Israel's 2008-2009 Gaza war from running candidates for the
  Knesset. He said Arab Knesset members who met with representatives of Hamas should be executed. He wants to jail
  Arabs who publicly mourn on Israeli Independence Day, and he hopes to permanently deny citizenship to Arabs from
  other countries who marry Arab citizens of Israel.
  You don't have to be paranoid to see the connection between Lieberman's current views and his former ones. The more
  you strip Israeli Arabs of legal protection, and the more you accuse them of treason, the more thinkable a policy of
  expulsion becomes. Lieberman's American defenders often note that in theory he supports a Palestinian state. What they
  usually fail to mention is that for him, a two-state solution means redrawing Israel's border so that a large chunk of Israeli
  Arabs find themselves exiled to another country, without their consent.
  Lieberman served as chief of staff during Netanyahu's first term as prime minister. And when it comes to the West Bank,
  Netanyahu's own record is in its way even more extreme than his protégé's. In his 1993 book, A Place among the
  Nations, Netanyahu not only rejects the idea of a Palestinian state, he denies that there is such a thing as a Palestinian. In
  fact, he repeatedly equates the Palestinian bid for statehood with Nazism. An Israel that withdraws from the West Bank,
  he has declared, would be a "ghetto-state" with "Auschwitz borders." And the effort "to gouge Judea and Samaria [the
  West Bank] out of Israel" resembles Hitler's bid to wrench the German-speaking "Sudeten district" from Czechoslovakia in
  1938. It is unfair, Netanyahu insists, to ask Israel to concede more territory since it has already made vast, gut-wrenching
  concessions. What kind of concessions? It has abandoned its claim to Jordan, which by rights should be part of the
  Jewish state.
  On the left of Netanyahu's coalition sits Ehud Barak's emasculated Labor Party, but whatever moderating potential it may
  have is counterbalanced by what is, in some ways, the most illiberal coalition partner of all, Shas, the ultra-Orthodox party
  representing Jews of North African and Middle Eastern descent. At one point, Shas—like some of its Ashkenazi ultra-
  Orthodox counterparts—was open to dismantling settlements. In recent years, however, ultra-Orthodox Israelis, anxious
  to find housing for their large families, have increasingly moved to the West Bank, where thanks to government subsidies
  it is far cheaper to live. Not coincidentally, their political parties have swung hard against territorial compromise. And they
  have done so with a virulence that reflects ultra-Orthodox Judaism's profound hostility to liberal values. Rabbi Ovadia
  Yosef, Shas's immensely powerful spiritual leader, has called Arabs "vipers," "snakes," and "ants." In 2005, after Prime
  Minister Ariel Sharon proposed dismantling settlements in the Gaza Strip, Yosef urged that "God strike him down." The
  official Shas newspaper recently called President Obama "an Islamic extremist."
  Hebrew University Professor Ze'ev Sternhell is an expert on fascism and a winner of the prestigious Israel Prize.
  Commenting on Lieberman and the leaders of Shas in a recent Op-Ed in Haaretz, he wrote, "The last time politicians

  holding views similar to theirs were in power in post–World War II Western Europe was in Franco's Spain." With their
  blessing, "a crude and multifaceted campaign is being waged against the foundations of the democratic and liberal order."
  Sternhell should know. In September 2008, he was injured when a settler set off a pipe bomb at his house.
  Israeli governments come and go, but the Netanyahu coalition is the product of frightening, long-term trends in Israeli
  society: an ultra-Orthodox population that is increasing dramatically, a settler movement that is growing more radical and
  more entrenched in the Israeli bureaucracy and army, and a Russian immigrant community that is particularly prone to
  anti-Arab racism. In 2009, a poll by the Israel Democracy Institute found that 53 percent of Jewish Israelis (and 77 percent
  of recent immigrants from the former USSR) support encouraging Arabs to leave the country. Attitudes are worst among
  Israel's young. When Israeli high schools held mock elections last year, Lieberman won. This March, a poll found that 56
  percent of Jewish Israeli high school students—and more than 80 percent of religious Jewish high school students—
  would deny Israeli Arabs the right to be elected to the Knesset. An education ministry official called the survey "a huge
  warning signal in light of the strengthening trends of extremist views among the youth."
  You might think that such trends, and the sympathy for them expressed by some in Israel's government, would occasion
  substantial public concern—even outrage—among the leaders of organized American Jewry. You would be wrong. In
  Israel itself, voices from the left, and even center, warn in increasingly urgent tones about threats to Israeli democracy.
  (Former Prime Ministers Ehud Olmert and Ehud Barak have both said that Israel risks becoming an "apartheid state" if it
  continues to hold the West Bank. This April, when settlers forced a large Israeli bookstore to stop selling a book critical of
  the occupation, Shulamit Aloni, former head of the dovish Meretz Party, declared that "Israel has not been democratic for
  some time now.") But in the United States, groups like AIPAC and the Presidents' Conference patrol public discourse,
  scolding people who contradict their vision of Israel as a state in which all leaders cherish democracy and yearn
  for peace.
  The result is a terrible irony. In theory, mainstream American Jewish organizations still hew to a liberal vision of Zionism.
  On its website, AIPAC celebrates Israel's commitment to "free speech and minority rights." The Conference of Presidents
  declares that "Israel and the United States share political, moral and intellectual values including democracy, freedom,
  security and peace." These groups would never say, as do some in Netanyahu's coalition, that Israeli Arabs don't deserve
  full citizenship and West Bank Palestinians don't deserve human rights. But in practice, by defending virtually anything
  any Israeli government does, they make themselves intellectual bodyguards for Israeli leaders who threaten the very
  liberal values they profess to admire.
  After Israel's elections last February, for instance, Malcolm Hoenlein, executive vice-chairman of the Presidents'
  Conference, explained that Avigdor Lieberman's agenda was "far more moderate than the media has presented it."
  Insisting that Lieberman bears no general animus toward Israeli Arabs, Abraham Foxman, national director of the Anti-
  Defamation League, told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that "He's not saying expel them. He's not saying punish them."
  (Permanently denying citizenship to their Arab spouses or jailing them if they publicly mourn on Israeli Independence Day
  evidently does not qualify as punishment.) The ADL has criticized anti-Arab bigotry in the past, and the American Jewish
  Committee, to its credit, warned that Lieberman's proposed loyalty oath would "chill Israel's democratic political debate."
  But the Forward summed up the overall response of America's communal Jewish leadership in its headline "Jewish
  Leaders Largely Silent on Lieberman's Role in Government."
  Not only does the organized American Jewish community mostly avoid public criticism of the Israeli government, it tries to
  prevent others from leveling such criticism as well. In recent years, American Jewish organizations have waged a
  campaign to discredit the world's most respected international human rights groups. In 2006, Foxman called an Amnesty
  International report on Israeli killing of Lebanese civilians "bigoted, biased, and borderline anti-Semitic." The Conference
  of Presidents has announced that "biased NGOs include Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, Christian Aid, [and]
  Save the Children." Last summer, an AIPAC spokesman declared that Human Rights Watch "has repeatedly
  demonstrated its anti-Israel bias." When the Obama administration awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Mary
  Robinson, former UN high commissioner for human rights, the ADL and AIPAC both protested, citing the fact that she had
  presided over the 2001 World Conference Against Racism in Durban, South Africa. (Early drafts of the conference report
  implicitly accused Israel of racism. Robinson helped expunge that defamatory charge, angering Syria and Iran.)
  Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International are not infallible. But when groups like AIPAC and the Presidents'
  Conference avoid virtually all public criticism of Israeli actions—directing their outrage solely at Israel's neighbors—they
  leave themselves in a poor position to charge bias. Moreover, while American Jewish groups claim that they are simply
  defending Israel from its foes, they are actually taking sides in a struggle within Israel between radically different Zionist
  visions. At the very moment the Anti-Defamation League claimed that Robinson harbored an "animus toward Israel," an
  alliance of seven Israeli human rights groups publicly congratulated her on her award. Many of those groups, like
  B'Tselem, which monitors Israeli actions in the Occupied Territories, and the Israeli branch of Physicians for Human
  Rights, have been at least as critical of Israel's actions in Lebanon, Gaza, and the West Bank as have Amnesty
  International and Human Rights Watch.
  All of which raises an uncomfortable question. If American Jewish groups claim that Israel's overseas human rights critics
  are motivated by anti- Israeli, if not anti-Semitic, bias, what does that say about Israel's domestic human rights critics?
  The implication is clear: they must be guilty of self-hatred, if not treason. American Jewish leaders don't generally say
  that, of course, but their allies in the Netanyahu government do. Last summer, Israel's vice prime minister, Moshe Ya'alon,
  called the anti-occupation group Peace Now a "virus." This January, a right-wing group called Im Tirtzu accused Israeli
  human rights organizations of having fed information to the Goldstone Commission that investigated Israel's Gaza war. A

  Knesset member from Netanyahu's Likud promptly charged Naomi Chazan, head of the New Israel Fund, which supports
  some of those human rights groups, with treason, and a member of Lieberman's party launched an investigation aimed at
  curbing foreign funding of Israeli NG0s.
  To their credit, Foxman and other American Jewish leaders opposed the move, which might have impaired their own
  work. But they are reaping what they sowed. If you suggest that mainstream human rights criticism of Israel's government
  is motivated by animus toward the state, or toward Jews in general, you give aid and comfort to those in Israel who make
  the same charges against the human rights critics in their midst.
  In the American Jewish establishment today, the language of liberal Zionism—with its idioms of human rights, equal
  citizenship, and territorial compromise—has been drained of meaning. It remains the lingua franca in part for generational
  reasons, because many older American Zionists still see themselves as liberals of a sort. They vote Democratic; they are
  unmoved by biblical claims to the West Bank; they see average Palestinians as decent people betrayed by bad leaders;
  and they are secular. They don't want Jewish organizations to criticize Israel from the left, but neither do they want them
  to be agents of the Israeli right.
  These American Zionists are largely the product of a particular era. Many were shaped by the terrifying days leading up to
  the Six-Day War, when it appeared that Israel might be overrun, and by the bitter aftermath of the Yom Kippur War, when
  much of the world seemed to turn against the Jewish state. In that crucible, Israel became their Jewish identity, often in
  conjunction with the Holocaust, which the 1967 and 1973 wars helped make central to American Jewish life. These Jews
  embraced Zionism before the settler movement became a major force in Israeli politics, before the 1982 Lebanon war,
  before the first intifada. They fell in love with an Israel that was more secular, less divided, and less shaped by the culture,
  politics, and theology of occupation. And by downplaying the significance of Avigdor Lieberman, the settlers, and Shas,
  American Jewish groups allow these older Zionists to continue to identify with that more internally cohesive, more
  innocent Israel of their youth, an Israel that now only exists in their memories.
  But these secular Zionists aren't reproducing themselves. Their children have no memory of Arab armies massed on
  Israel's border and of Israel surviving in part thanks to urgent military assistance from the United States. Instead, they
  have grown up viewing Israel as a regional hegemon and an occupying power. As a result, they are more conscious than
  their parents of the degree to which Israeli behavior violates liberal ideals, and less willing to grant Israel an exemption
  because its survival seems in peril. Because they have inherited their parents' liberalism, they cannot embrace their
  uncritical Zionism. Because their liberalism is real, they can see that the liberalism of the American Jewish establishment
  is fake.
  To sustain their uncritical brand of Zionism, therefore, America's Jewish organizations will need to look elsewhere to
  replenish their ranks. They will need to find young American. Jews who have come of age during the West Bank
  occupation but are not troubled by it. And those young American Jews will come disproportionately from the
  Orthodox world.
  Because they marry earlier, intermarry less, and have more children, Orthodox Jews are growing rapidly as a share of the
  American Jewish population. According to a 2006 American Jewish Committee (AJC) survey, while Orthodox Jews make
  up only 12 percent of American Jewry over the age of sixty, they constitute 34 percent between the ages of eighteen and
  twenty-four. For America's Zionist organizations, these Orthodox youngsters are a potential bonanza. In their yeshivas
  they learn devotion to Israel from an early age; they generally spend a year of religious study there after high school, and
  often know friends or relatives who have immigrated to Israel. The same AJC study found that while only 16 percent of
  non-Orthodox adult Jews under the age of forty feel "very close to Israel," among the Orthodox the figure is 79 percent. As
  secular Jews drift away from America's Zionist institutions, their Orthodox counterparts will likely step into the breach. The
  Orthodox "are still interested in parochial Jewish concerns," explains Samuel Heilman, a sociologist at the City University
  of New York. "They are among the last ones who stayed in the Jewish house, so they now control the lights."
  But it is this very parochialism—a deep commitment to Jewish concerns, which often outweighs more universal ones—
  that gives Orthodox Jewish Zionism a distinctly illiberal cast. The 2006 AJC poll found that while 60 percent of non-
  Orthodox American Jews under the age of forty support a Palestinian state, that figure drops to 25 percent among the
  Orthodox. In 2009, when Brandeis University's Theodore Sasson asked American Jewish focus groups about Israel, he
  found Orthodox participants much less supportive of dismantling settlements as part of a peace deal. Even more tellingly,
  Reform, Conservative, and unaffiliated Jews tended to believe that average Palestinians wanted peace, but had been ill-
  served by their leaders. Orthodox Jews, by contrast, were more likely to see the Palestinian people as the enemy, and to
  deny that ordinary Palestinians shared any common interests or values with ordinary Israelis or Jews.
  Orthodox Judaism has great virtues, including a communal warmth and a commitment to Jewish learning unmatched in
  the American Jewish world. (I'm biased, since my family attends an Orthodox synagogue.) But if current trends continue,
  the growing influence of Orthodox Jews in America's Jewish communal institutions will erode even the liberal-democratic
  veneer that today covers American Zionism. In 2002, America's major Jewish organizations sponsored a large Israel
  solidarity rally on the Washington Mall. Up and down the east coast, yeshivas shut down for the day, swelling the
  estimated Orthodox share of the crowd to close to 70 percent. When the then Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul
  Wolfowitz told the rally that "innocent Palestinians are suffering and dying as well," he was booed.
  America's Jewish leaders should think hard about that rally. Unless they change course, it portends the future: an
  American Zionist movement that does not even feign concern for Palestinian dignity and a broader American Jewish
  population that does not even feign concern for Israel. My own children, given their upbringing, could as easily end up
  among the booers as among Luntz's focus group. Either prospect fills me with dread.

  In 2004, in an effort to prevent weapons smuggling from Egypt, Israeli tanks and bulldozers demolished hundreds of
  houses in the Rafah refugee camp in the southern Gaza Strip. Watching television, a veteran Israeli commentator and
  politician named Tommy Lapid saw an elderly Palestinian woman crouched on all fours looking for her medicines amid the
  ruins of her home. He said she reminded him of his grandmother.
  In that moment, Lapid captured the spirit that is suffocating within organized American Jewish life. To begin with, he
  watched. In my experience, there is an epidemic of not watching among American Zionists today. A Red Cross study on
  malnutrition in the Gaza Strip, a bill in the Knesset to allow Jewish neighborhoods to bar entry to Israeli Arabs, an Israeli
  human rights report on settlers burning Palestinian olive groves, three more Palestinian teenagers shot—it's unpleasant.
  Rationalizing and minimizing Palestinian suffering has become a kind of game. In a more recent report on how to foster
  Zionism among America's young, Luntz urges American Jewish groups to use the word "Arabs, not Palestinians," since
  "the term `Palestinians' evokes images of refugee camps, victims and oppression," while "Arab' says wealth, oil
  and Islam."
  Of course, Israel—like the United States—must sometimes take morally difficult actions in its own defense. But they are
  morally difficult only if you allow yourself some human connection to the other side. Otherwise, security justifies
  everything. The heads of AIPAC and the Presidents' Conference should ask themselves what Israel's leaders would have
  to do or say to make them scream "no." After all, Lieberman is foreign minister; Effi Eitam is touring American universities;
  settlements are growing at triple the rate of the Israeli population; half of Israeli Jewish high school students want Arabs
  barred from the Knesset. If the line has not yet been crossed, where is the line?
  What infuriated critics about Lapid's comment was that his grandmother died at Auschwitz. How dare he defile the
  memory of the Holocaust? Of course, the Holocaust is immeasurably worse than anything Israel has done or ever will do.
  •
  But at least Lapid used Jewish suffering to connect to the suffering of others. In the world of AIPAC, the Holocaust
  analogies never stop, and their message is always the same: Jews are licensed by their victimhood to worry only about
  themselves. Many of Israel's founders believed that with statehood, Jews would rightly be judged on the way they treated
  the non-Jews living under their dominion. "For the first time we shall be the majority living with a minority," Knesset
  member Pinchas Lavon declared in 1948, "and we shall be called upon to provide an example and prove how Jews live
  with a minority."
  But the message of the American Jewish establishment and its allies in the Netanyahu government is exactly the
  opposite: since Jews are history's permanent victims, always on the knife-edge of extinction, moral responsibility is a
  luxury Israel does not have. Its only responsibility is to survive. As former Knesset speaker Avraham Burg writes in his
  remarkable 2008 book, The Holocaust Is Over; We Must Rise From Its Ashes, "Victimhood sets you free."
  This obsession with victimhood lies at the heart of why Zionism is dying among America's secular Jewish young. It simply
  bears no relationship to their lived experience, or what they have seen of Israel's. Yes, Israel faces threats from Hezbollah
  and Hamas. Yes, Israelis understandably worry about a nuclear Iran. But the dilemmas you face when you possess
  dozens or hundreds of nuclear weapons, and your adversary, however despicable, may acquire one, are not the
  dilemmas of the Warsaw Ghetto. The year 2010 is not, as Benjamin Netanyahu has claimed, 1938. The drama of Jewish
  victimhood—a drama that feels natural to many Jews who lived through 1938, 1948, or even 1967—strikes most of
  today's young American Jews as farce.
  But there is a different Zionist calling, which has never been more desperately relevant. It has its roots in Israel's
  Independence Proclamation, which promised that the Jewish state "will be based on the precepts of liberty, justice and
  peace taught by the Hebrew prophets," and in the December 1948 letter from Albert Einstein, Hannah Arendt, and others
  to The New York Times, protesting right-wing Zionist leader Menachem Begin's visit to the United States after his party's
  militias massacred Arab civilians in the village of Deir Yassin. It is a call to recognize that in a world in which Jewish
  fortunes have radically changed, the best way to memorialize the history of Jewish suffering is through the ethical use of
  Jewish power.
  For several months now, a group of Israeli students has been traveling every Friday to the East Jerusalem neighborhood
  of Sheikh Jarrah, where a Palestinian family named the Ghawis lives on the street outside their home of fifty-three years,
  from which they were evicted to make room for Jewish settlers. Although repeatedly arrested for protesting without a
  permit, and called traitors and self-haters by the Israeli right, the students keep coming, their numbers now swelling into
  the thousands. What if American Jewish organizations brought these young people to speak at Hillel? What if this was the
  face of Zionism shown to America's Jewish young? What if the students in Luntz's focus group had been told that their
  generation faces a challenge as momentous as any in Jewish history: to save liberal democracy in the only Jewish state
  on earth?
  "Too many years I lived in the warm embrace of institutionalized elusiveness and was a part of it," writes Avraham Burg. "I
  was very comfortable there." I know; I was comfortable there too. But comfortable Zionism has become a moral
  abdication. Let's hope that Luntz's students, in solidarity with their counterparts at Sheikh Jarrah, can foster an
  uncomfortable Zionism, a Zionism angry at what Israel risks becoming, and in love with what it still could be. Let's hope
  they care enough to try.
