Madame Crommelynck also starts to comment on what we have been reading, asserting that "Beautiful words ruin your poetry" and "A poet throws all but truth in the cellar."

It may enter a period of peaceful coexistence with Israel, embracing a two-state solution by abandoning its violent past, or it can choose war with the greatest military power in the region at the expense and betrayal of its people. Now that Hamas has assumed power in the Palestinian territories, if attacks on Israel continue, Israel may justifiably respond to such attacks for what they are, an aggressive assault on its people...
