"No matter how hard I try, I can't convince my countrymen to see things the way I do, so they must be forced." David Landau puts the anti-democratic left on full display. Richard Landes discusses: David Landau, Oslo Logician, Asks Condi Rice to "Rape" Israel
In today’s Jewish Week, the editor Gary Rosenblatt has a shocking piece on the editor of Ha-Aretz, David Landau’s conversation with Condi Rice last September, in the build-up to Annapolis. Both the message and the language shed a harsh light on the condition of the "anti-occupation" Israeli mindset. The landscape is not pretty...
I blogged about this petzeleh, too. It goes to show you the self-hating, delusional thinking on the part of the left.

Can you give me a link to the quoted sentence " No matter how ........."; I can't seem to find it?
Sorry, that was my own attempt at a snarky sum-up of the attitude of people like Landau (and Beilin, etc...) I wasn't clear about that.
In a way you you could be right about the man's arrogance.
With the left's unwillingness to compromise they force their views on others and I suppose given a pass could easily become another Chavez et al.
Though they scream on about dialogue and discussion with the zero sum enemy when criticizing their own political opponents, they are the first to enforce their views instead of compromising.
