the Israeli government and people desperately yearn for this violence to end. Yasser Arafat and the Palestinian Authority have chosen - and often sung the praises of - ongoing, violent confrontation.

I have to amend this as "Israeli and Palestinian people want peace and prosperity, while their leaders and extremist factions want ongoing conflict for continuing power".

The main reason there are fewer Israeli casualties is that fewer Israelis are involved in the violence.

Come on, this is ridiculous :-)

I see now that this is taken from the website "The Jewish Agency". If it's all the same to you, Neocon, I'd rather talk on the viewpoints of relatively objective third parties, rather than Palestinians and Israelis.

You may have noticed I never quote or link to Arab websites, let alone Palestinian ones. That is not because I cannot find them.
