If you are selling a house for 220K and someone offers 10K, would you dignify the bid?

If the fair market price was $200,000, no. But if the fair market price was $11,000 my realtor would whup me upside the head if I didn't counter-offer.

If a good offer must include 3 million Palestinians coming to Israel, then Israel cannot make that offer. If the Palestinians will accept something else, the parties may negotiate. If the Palestinians will insist upon this, there will be no peace, and you can discuss the issue from sun up to sundown and never make any progress.

If there never can be a solution, the issue will fester for decades or centuries, or it will be resolved by war.

It is interesting that, in reading the history of the mandate period, I see that arabs from many regions streamed into Palestine at the same time more Jews were arriving. The indigenous Arabs only objected to the Jews; sounds racist to me.
