<<The Saudis? What in the world do the Saudis have to do with Israel-Palestine? Saudis have money, and that's it. The less significance given to the Saudi regime, which is amongst the most repressive on the planet, the better.>>

Like it or not Elroy, the Saudis have a big part to play in this game. I agree with you on the repression and as far as I'm concerned its a very flawed society. Their has to be Arab input in any agreement in Palestine and the Saudis with their wealth and influence can do much better than the Egyptians.

<<Let the Palestinians and Israelis work out a peace solution between each other other, and screw the rest of the outsiders (including the US)>>

Pure fantasy.....never will happen unless mediated and brokered by the US and an Arab consensus. The last 6 and a half years have basically been a fine example of how Israel deals with the Palestinians without much outside influence.

The three state solution is an interesting concept. Bottom line there has to be an independent Palestinian state in any solution. The Palestinians need to realize that Israel has got to be recognized and the Israelis need to compromise on land for peace.
