    The Jewish Traveler
    Feature

    The Swiss canton, a hub of international organizations, banking and watchmaking, is home to a diverse Jewish community on the French border.

    Geneva is the nerve center of the world. Home to the United Nations’ European office and 22 international organizations, it is the meeting place of representatives from around the globe.

    And what nicer place to meet than this city arrayed along the shores of Lake Leman, the largest lake in western Europe, surrounded by mountains and greened by parks that occupy one-fifth of its land.

    This gateway to the Alps (on clear days Mont Blanc is in glorious view) is also a major center of banking and watchmaking—and Jews have played an important role in both. And despite Geneva’s having once been the center of Calvinism—an austere Protestant denomination—restaurants, cafés and other places of entertainment have sprouted up in recent years, tempting visitors to enjoy a multitude of pleasures.

      The two-state solution for the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is really dead. Good riddance! But someone has to issue an official death certificate before the rotting corpse is given a proper burial and we can all move on and explore the more just, moral and therefore enduring alternative for peaceful coexistence between Jews and Arabs in Mandate Palestine: the one-state solution.

      Blinded by the arrogance of power and the ephemeral comfort of impunity, Israel, against its strategic Zionist interests, failed to control its insatiable appetite for expansion, and went ahead with devouring the very last bit of land that was supposed to form the material foundation for an independent Palestinian state.

       The current phase has all the emblematic properties of what may be considered the final chapter of the Zionist project. We are witnessing the rapid demise of Zionism, and nothing can be done to save it, for Zionism is intent on killing itself. I, for one, support euthanasia.
