Israel's right to exist needs to be recognized by Hamas and Hizbollah

Hamas and Hizbullah are ideologically constrained from recognizing Israelis right to exist. In their Islamist ideology Israel has no right to exist. Only Muslims have the right to rule a state.

The most they can do is offer a temporary truce. They may put a time limit on it, but everybody knows they will break it if they feel strong enough.

If you don't believe that Hizbullah works on Iranian orders, you are the only one. Iran pays Hizbullah $100 million a year, there are Revolutionary Guards fighting with Hizbullah, Nasrallah is totally subservient to Iran. Notice how convenient the timing of this last attack was for Iran?

Perhaps the most important problem is that the US has no influence with any of the Moslem states or organizations in the ME thanks to the Iraq fiasco

That would be as opposed to the wonderful, brilliant influence Clinton had with Arafat back in 2000. Did a beautiful job getting that peace treaty & all. And nobody can say that Clinton didn't put in his utmost effort trying.

Face it, the US has never had influence enough to get a peace treaty, or even to get our supposed allies Egypt Jordan and SA, to try to help getting a peace treaty. The Arab states have never wanted a peace treaty, the conflict is FAR too useful to them.
