If the Palestinian stop all of their terrorism, recognize Israel right to exist and drop the right of return (to Israel) and select a democracy as their preferred type of government, then after all of these conditions are met we can talk about a "Palestinian" state on the West Bank.

In other words, same-old same-old. If, if, if.

" If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary." James Madison, Federalist no. 51.

But men are not angels, and angels do not govern men. Therefore, someone needs to impose peace by force. Someone who doesn't go on rampages and smash Palestinian civil infrastructure in a fit of pique.

The Palestinian government has failed, and the Israeli government has failed.
