Brilliant, DUH... More like idiotic. Your lead up and the article don't have anything to do with one another. The string tying together this argument is frayed beyond believe.
Israel cannot have peace with a neighbor whose population is stirred to annihalate it. While some Israel policies may help stir that pot, no one can doubt that the majority of the trouble comes not from Israel, but from Terror sponsor states, who benefit by having the Arab world focus on Israel rather than internal problems, by Europe who caters to this Terror Lobby, and by the PLO who helped refine the definition of terror throughout the later half of the twentieth century.
Blaming Israel for the problems of the middle east is stupid. Praising it blindly would also be stupid. But it takes two to Tango, and it takes two sides to reach a peace agreement. Israel does not now have a partner for peace. I hope that one day, the population of the Arab world and those who consider themselves as Palestinians, are educated to desire peace and the benefits therein over hatred and war.
