In view of the fact that the four main political organs of the Palestinians specifically call for the destruction of Israel, with Hamas - the present government - calling for no negotiation on the subject, I find it very disconcerting that those who suggest that Arabs and Palestinians indeed have legitimate grievances nevertheless support them. It's like supporting a police force run by the Mafia, a Mafia that acknowledges its nature and espouses and conducts criminal activity no matter what.

Supporting Hamas, et al, is support entities which will not negotiate and whose goal is to destroy Israel. Until this changes, and the Palestinians genuinely adopt a 'peace and negotiation' option, they are doomed b/c Israel cannot even if it wanted satisfy their demands short of abandoning the country.

No doubt some will say that these avowed goals are fanfare, fodder for the masses. Given the extremely disturbing turn to suicide bombing, I would say that they mean what they say.
