>Israel may have to close its borders with the WB. Pull back its settlers. Stop all interaction. No longer permit Palestinians from coming in as a labor source, and learn to do its grunt work on its own.

Ummm... as soon as the intifada started, Palestinians stopped coming over the border to work. Israel's adjusted just fine.


Wrong!! They still come over but they go through quite a bit of work [and sometimes harassment] to get to work.

One problem with unilateral separation is that when Israel no longer meddles with the affairs in the West Bank, the Palestinian leadership can accumulate weapons even more easily than they can now, perhaps ones that will allow them to fire over a wall. What good will the wall do? I was an advocate of a wall, but then realized that one problem.

I see. The Israelis are unwilling victims in this mess. They are forced into knocking the shit out of the Palestinians because any suggestion that might lead to peace is not quite to their satisfaction.
