Fence/Wall + the assasinations have worked well. According to Brooks the Fence gives the Pals roughly 87% of the WBank. 13,000 Pals fall on the israeli side. About 48,000 settlers are outside. Those are the 48,000 who will be ultimately be uprooted. The fate of the 13,000 Pals will be dependent on the final agreement which may or may not give Pals more land. I suspect in the end the Fence will be the defacto border long enough for it to ultimately become de jure. And the 13k pals will be given a choice between citizenship and compensation(if they decide to leave). Shrunken Palestine mirrors an unwillingness of Pals to accept facts on the ground in 1948, 1967 and 2000(barak 98%). They probably wont get a better deal than this and they have only arafat to blame for not taking the y2k deal and initiating Infantiletada #2. So many on both sides have died unnecessarily because of that decision. MIke

Funny, I just read something this morning on this thread attributing it to the wall...



Just like the Lakers. Ya gotta have a good defense and offense.
