Leon Rosselson wrote his almost 12-minute-long epic The Last Chance after Israel's 1982 invasion of Lebanon, yet even then it was obvious that the character representing Jewish Israelis like Sam, the epitome of tolerance, the artistic dreamer who liked to be different, had already lost the argument. His sparring partner Meier, the butcher who traded in pork though not on the Sabbath, hated not just Arabs but even Jews who had come to Israel since its foundation in 1948. Meier stood for the sort of one-nation, forged-in-the-fire, Hebrew-speaking Zionist state that the US loves to back with money and sophisticated weaponry while governments find convenient reasons for doing nothing, not even about international solidarity movements activists who try and protect Palestinian communities under siege and attack and are themselves murdered by the Israeli military. Rosselson is a non-religious, non-Zionist Jew who is quite clear-headed enough not to be taken in by wifty-wafty, politically muddle-headed, 'give peace a chance' ditty writers on a website run by one of the world's most rampant capitalist forces based in the US and backed to the hilt by their British poodle only too pleased to let Murdoch run rampant over our media. If you want to achieve peace, first identify the enemy.
