Well, this guy on the FA thread thinks Israel is doomed #reply-17328127 and Jews better get the hell out while they can. Not so sure how accurate some of the comparisons are - in South Africa there was no Islamist religious element for example, nor did Mandela continuously call for extermination of Whites. And the US civil rights movement played a role. One thing that is happening is that oil is steadily running down, and there is a demographic time bomb ticking in all the Muslim states in the surrounding regions.

I actually suggested exactly such an approach, a map of the future Palestinian state with "conditional lines", a 20 to 50 years plan, and line that move back and forth depending on the achievement of specific goals (no incitement to hate in the class room, cessation of terror, and whatever, on one side, cessation of Jewish settlements expansion, fair allocation of water resources and whatever, on the other side. Once a year, the line are moved in "favor or against" the party that does not deliver on its promises, until 20 years (or fifty years, I have not "worked out the details), the line are frozen. Visibility that an action on either side could have detrimental effects, might finally get out that stupid idea that 'time is on our side". Zeev
