If they are not willing to stop killing for it then they will not get it, but they might be able to die for it. Negotiations are about compromise and depending on the other side to deliver on their promises. If there is no willingness to compromise, and if there is no trust that the other side can or will deliver what they promise then there is not much you can negotiate about. The negotiations could be a tactic like they where in the Vietnam war where the communist never planned to give up there push for conquest of the South, they just hoped to help control the pace of the war and win political points through negotiations. The difference here is that the Palestinians are less powerful then the Vietnamese communists where, they have less support from the outside world, and the Israelis are not going to give up and go home. They are home.

Tim, and so are the Palestinians. I think that goes to the heart of the problem.
