Now, you're talking reality. Boy, aren't we the optimists? But the Israelis have no intention to disappear, so they are going to just keep rubbing their neighbors' noses into their own success, and being nasty hardasses when they get threatened and attacked. The only hope for the situation is for the Arabs to modernize. I really hope the situation develops where Jordan can retake the West Bank, though I don't know how this could work. That's the only arrangement that makes sense for the region

Well, we agree at last :)

Being rich and conspicuous by race or ethnic or religion while living in a poor, violent neighborhood of people different than oneself, is not my idea of paradise. Been there done that.
