but hopefully it is clear to WestBankians that Hamas is not the answer either.

Unfortunately the Pals don't have any other parties, since they have a well established tradition (found over 70 years ago by the Mufti) of declaring moderates to be collaborators and shooting them.

I would ask anyone to tell me this: if the Pals do want peace, where is the Pal peace party?

You can always identify an Israeli peace party, sometimes it was in the majority, such as when Peres pushed the Oslo accords down the throat of the Knesset. But where was the Pal peace party?

I describe the reality of the situation as I see it. I don't hate Palestinians; I pity them. They are more caught in the cycle of eternal victimhood than anybody else. They are just pawns in the game, those that are stuck in Gaza especially.

For those who think it must be racist to describe an assymetric reality, I ask again, where is the Pal peace party? Where are the moderates? Were there ever any?
