I would not call all 6 items FACTS, #1 is FACT, current perceptions is more likely for the last 5 items, but I really do think they sum up the opinions of a majority of Americans outside the State Department. I think that if you talked to Israeli's you would find the 5 important items (#3 doesn't make sense in a nation almost devoid of Christians-other than tourists)are also the dominant perceptions, inlcuding most importantly your Item 6. To that Israeli's (as a whole) would give up settlements for peace, land for peace, even allow Jerusalem to be something other than a single entity under Israeli 'sole' sovergnity. Sadly, if you looked at the Palestinian population they would hold the following as major perceptions. Attempting to portray their perceptions of the USA and Israel would get me banned from the thread again.
