The major error committed by Arafat, is allowing the idea of evicting the Israeli to gain more and more support as the main line of the Palestinian policy. It is a major error, since it now leaves only the two extreme options, throwing the Israeli to the sea, or evicting the Palestinians, as valid options. Once more Zeev, your always keen intellect has sliced through the BS and arrived at the heart of the matter. As the quote goes.. "The Palestinians never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity".

There is a current situation and it has three potential outcomes, the Arab throw the Israeli to the sea, as they have promised to their populations for the last 53 years, the Israeli evict the Palestinians as some extreme Israeli "relocation" advocate suggest, or the two peoples find ways to live peacefully as cooperating neighbors. There is a fourth option: they could go on as they have for the last few decades, ripping each other apart, neither side able to force a meaningful concession from the other or willing to give one up themselves. Unfortunately, I think this is the likeliest outcome. I don't suppose they could make it last forever, but both sides seem determined to try.
