Thomas,

"You asked us to address the quotes in that article"

Actually, I asked Emile to address the issue of the Syrian and Palestinian textbooks. That's when you jumped in to defend him. I guess he can't mount a defense of his own.

It's one thing to say the Palestinians want peace. It's another thing to be willing to make the kind of compromises necessary to obtaining that peace. The Israeli's are also on record as agreeing to a Palestinian state, but they want security guarantees. Under the circumstances I don't think they are being unreasonable.

You wouldn't like it either if your family was subject to terror bombings

<< the Palestinians (and all of the neighboring Arab states) have agreed to make peace with Israel and abide by international law (UN 242). This offer was first presented about 30 years ago, and it continues to this day. Israel refuses to even discuss it.>>
Wrong again.
30 years ago Arafat still had the distraction of Israel as his target, did he really change that (oh yeh, temporary for political reason...)
