1·The second major source of tension that we need to discuss is the situation between Israelis, Palestinians and the Arab world.
我将讨论的紧张关系的第二大根源是以色列人、巴勒斯坦人和阿拉伯世界之间的局势。
2·Suddenly, hundreds of thousands of Israelis found themselves swept up in a fellowship of frustration.
突然间，成千上万以色列人发现自己被清扫到一个挫败联谊会中。
3·By providing support to the Palestinians, and offering an opening however modest the Israelis, the Arab states could have the same impact.
阿拉伯国家通过对巴勒斯坦人的支持，通过向温和的以色列人提供一个开端，可以造成同样的影响。
4·THIS week Israelis celebrate and Palestinians mourn the war of 1948 that created a state for the Jews but resulted in the flight of a large portion of Palestine's then Arab majority.
本周以色列人庆祝1948年的战争，巴勒斯坦人则为之哀悼。这场战争缔造了犹太人的国家，但却导致在巴勒斯坦占大多数的阿拉伯人流离失所。
5·That will only deepen the misplaced conviction of too many Israelis that a nation in a sea of enemies must in the end survive mainly by the sword.
那样只能加深多数以色列人那错位的信仰，即一个处于海洋般敌人中间的民族最后必须主要用它的剑来生存。
