<<So now that Arafat's gone, you're going to assign all the blame to him alone?>> Not at all....you're jumping to conclusions. There's blame to go all around. I never assigned blame to him alone. He was a major hinderence but not the sole reason for failure. <<It won't get resolved, unless (God forbid) Israel gets destroyed and the Jews get killed or driven out>> Do you really believe that this is possible? Israel has enough nukes to destroy all the Arab nations 100 times over. This whole driving the jews into the sea is a fallacy that will never happen. <<Therefore we should speak of managing the conflict, not resolving it.>> Managing the conflict is appeasement for the hardliners on both sides. For the Arabs it justifies open animosity and non-recognition of the state of Israel. For Israel it allows for the increasing expansion in the occupied WB. Status quo is not viable for the long term. On that we obviously totally disagree.
