>Z, apparently, in both 1947 and 2000, the offers were unacceptable. I guess in both cases, it was take or leave it.

In 1947, they were offered something like 50% of the partitioned land (I think it may have been more). Arabs had already been given more than half of historic Palestine in 1923 with the creation of Jordan.

In 2000, they were offered over 90% of the West Bank and Gaza, most of the settlements were to be dismantled, and they were offered a chunk of Jerusalem. Arafat walked out because he wanted all of Jerusalem and the Right of Return. Israel can't offer those things.

What can Israel offer?
