The General’s Son. Miko Peled is a peace activist who dares to say in public what others still choose to deny.
Born in Jerusalem in 1961 into a well known Zionist family, his grandfather, Dr. Avraham Katsnelson was a Zionist leader and signer of the Israeli Declaration of Independence.
His Father, Matti Peled, was a young officer in the war of 1948 and a general in the war of 1967 when Israel conquered the West Bank, Gaza, Golan Heights and Sinai.
Miko’s unlikely opinions reflect his father’s legacy. General Peled was a war hero turned peacemaker.
Miko grew up in Jerusalem, a multi-ethnic city, but had to leave Israel before he made his first Palestinian friend, the result of his participation in a dialogue group in California. He was 39.
On September 4, 1997 the beloved Smadar, 13, the daughter of Miko’s sister Nurit and her husband Rami Elhanan was killed in a suicide attack.
Peled insists that Israel/Palestine is one state—the separation wall notwithstanding, massive investment in infrastructure, towns and highways that bisect and connect settlements on the West Bank, have destroyed the possibility for a viable Palestinian state.
The result, Peled says is that Israelis and Palestinians are governed by the same government but live under different sets of laws.
At the heart of Peled’s conclusion lies the realization that Israelis and Palestinians can live in peace as equals in their shared homeland. A

ALTHOUGH I POSTED THIS FOR OBVIOUS REASONS, TOWARD THE END OF THE VIDEO, THIS MORON BEGINS, LIKE ALL JEWS, TO TOUT THE “GREATNESS” OF DEMOCRACY…..
NEVER BE FOOLED BY THIS DIATRIBE. DEMOCRACY IS THE BASIS OF COMMUNISM, AND WAS CONDEMNED BY GOD THROUGH HIS DEEDS WHEN AFTER THE CALL TO “CRUCIFY HIM” WENT OUT FROM THE JEWS, THEY MET THEIR FATE AT THE HANDS OF ROMAN SOLDIERS LED BY TITUS IN AD 70
And will meet their fate again…where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth-Satan’s teeth on Talmudic bones. Peled needs to get with the program–you know Who’s!
