Ya’alon, who is eighth on Likud’s Knesset list, opened the first session of the three-day Jerusalem Conference with a Zionist speech of the old-fashioned, hard-hitting kind, that outlined a new strategy for Israel: no more retreats.

“We suffer from inertia in our way of thought,” Ya’alon said. “We pretend that there is a Palestinian entity which has recognized Israel. But from the dawn of Zionism there has not been an Arab movement that was willing to recognize Israel as the sovereign state of the Jewish nation. Mahmoud Abbas said it well before Annapolis: “Why should Judaism, this religion, have a state?” But we didn’t want to listen. We blur this in the political and public debate.”
