.....and then more would raise up to take their place and avenge their deaths. Your solution only pushes things into the wrong direction and not towards the intended goal of peace.

Your attitude will see people dying on both sides for a long time to come.

Your attitude will see the Palestinians get buggered once again.
The Palestinians are screwing themselves. Or rather, allowing themselves to be screwed by Hamas and Islamic Jihad. You think Hamas doesn't know that the helicopters will come every time they blow up another busload of Israelis? You think Hamas and IJ are acting in the interests of the Palestinian people? Think again.

When the Palestinian people realize that the terrorist organizations are acting in their own self-interest, and NOT those of the people at large, the Palestinian people will be that much closer to a state, and peace, which I would actually like to see there. You, on the other hand, would have their fate decided by suicide bombers who are on the losing side in a war of attrition.

This is odd. I have not seen any pigs flying recently.

Good for them. let's just hope they can come up with a treaty that will satify both parties in 3 months.

BS. You've swallowed the Israeli progaganda, which isn't suprising, most American's do. The Palestinians will never get anything from the Israelis peacefully. The Israelis will continue to steal what they want, from Palestianians, Iraqis or anyone else including you. Watch your back.

Arafat held the news conference. Let's see how well his followers listen.

It must be nice knowing who should live and who should die. You just never know, though, who does.

Exactly. With help in large measure from the US (they supply the gunships and $3 Billion plus a year).

If the Palestinians can hold to a cease-fire, they will win, no matter what Israel does. It will be extremely hard to do so, I don't know that I could personally,given the conditions, but if they can they will quickly gain the upper hand in world opinion.

They can become the peacemakers and Israel will have to stop their aggressions, or lose favor with their allies. But the key is the Palestinians need to really stick to the cease-fire, any breakdown in that and they give justification for Israel to keep doing what they are doing.

Very good point. They will definitely have the upper-hand as long as they hold onto peace. Israel will have more to lose at that point if they continue aggression. I hope the Palestinians realize this. :beer:

you woulda thought they'd take a clue from dr king or ghandi decades ago. i wouldn'lt hold my breath.
