The only way the West will make peace with the mid-east is by an even handed diplomacy effort. Wouldn't serve the Iraeli ends though.

Can you imagine the support we'd receive from the Arab world if we strongly supported the Palestinian right to the land under the illegal settlements? We might even seem like an honest broker of peace again.


Are you under the impression that the Arab world wants peace in Palestine? No way. The conflict is waay too useful.

Are you as willing to do the same for Kurdish rights in Turkey, Iraq, and Iran? They see themselves as "occupied" and most of the non-Kurdish settlements as "illegal".

And why you're at it, you might put in a few good words for the Tibetans, who are all STILL occupied by the Chinese.
