I am getting pretty fed up with the State of Israel on not moving on the important agreement between the Vatican and their nation. The Vatican officials are putting a happy face on this but there has been no action by Israel through countless administrations.
See this good piece from the Asia Times. Peres to visit Pope at a time of "serious" dialogue between Rome and Jerusalem
In fact all those treaties that are discussed have never been taken up by Israeli legislature so in effect they don't mean anything.
These are serious issues and I really think the many Catholic supporters of Israel ,which I am one, need to be demanding more action and less talk from Israel.
The above article is pretty good and in it this caught my eye.
The third subject often publicly mentioned in these years is a review of the presentation of Christ, Christianity and the Church in Israel’s school system. It would serve to verify effective reciprocity in relation to the immense undertaking by the Catholic Church over recent decades to ensure a correct, indeed a friendly, presentation of Judaism and the Jews in Catholic education.
I would be very interested to know more about that.
