Sir - Cheers for that.

I concur with you, in it that unless and before Israeli state and public, as well as their supporters in the US understand what you are talking about in this post, there will be no peace for them. Very sad, indeed...

As soon as Rabin was murdered by the Israeli right-wing dingbats, the road was clear for them to torpedo the OA

You seem to forget, Rabin was succeeded by Shimon Peres, the most dovish Israeli PM ever. It was during the government of Shimon Peres that Hamas set out to torpedo the talks with a series of suicide bus bombings, and succeeded in electing Netanyahu over Peres. Now tell me, did Hamas blow up those buses because the talks were foundering, or because they were looking likely to succeed?

No, the Oslo Accords were killed by the Israeli right-wing.

Very helpful post, SFD.
