Given the disparity in power, the Palestinian beliefs looks a little more delusionary than the Israeli ones, wouldn't you say?

Also, the curious thing about the deal being refused by the Arabs is that it's not the actual Arabs in Israel who are adamantly refusing to stay a minority in Israel; it's the Arabs (both Palestinian and other) outside of the Green Line who are adamantly refusing to sign a deal that leaves Israel standing.

So the Palestinians insist that Israel stop existing, while the Israelis do not insist that Palestine stop existing - a basic assymetry in goals. For the Israelis to look to "cut a deal" that would leave them in a worse position than the Copts in Egypt, they would have to be desperate indeed.
