This is indeed one of the more unique costs of conflict between Israel & Palestine. <BR/><BR/>My company, Strategic Foresight Group, a political think tank based in Bombay, India has recently come out with a report that measures the various costs of conflict in the Middle East - ranging from 1948 to potential conflicts in the future. <BR/> <BR/>We have received much support from both regional (Arab League)and international (Swiss Govt.) policy makers but we would also like to have opinions form authors, academia and youth. <BR/><BR/>From this post and previous ones as well, I think that you would be able to offer a fresh perspective and I think that this material would be of interest to you.<BR/> <BR/>Please visit our website www.strategicforesight.com<BR/><BR/>The report is titled 'Costs of Conflict in the Middle East'<BR/> <BR/>Truly looking forward to your response. You have my e-mail.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04456508358612460961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3557908988533139306.post-83234789965883298142008-05-30T06:38:00.000-07:002008-05-30T06:38:00.000-07:00I take your point, but frankly in this instance, I...I take your point, but frankly in this instance, I almost wonder if a high-level phone call might not be more effective, framing it as a favor rather than as a matter of forcing Israel to cave to U.S. pressure (and thus lose face).Matt Eckelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01521606439967262492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3557908988533139306.post-50725796043382279402008-05-29T23:21:00.000-07:002008-05-29T23:21:00.000-07:00Cut the US annual grant to Israel.Cut the US annual grant to Israel.Claytonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00245697802227482869noreply@blogger.com
