Here is a diversion for you; why can't you accept a one state solution? The out is a win-win for both the Israelis and the Palestinians. Why can't the Palestinians settle for a Palestinian State, and at some future date when both sides feel comfortable enough, form a Confederation or even a Federation? There's NOTHING preventing the Palestinian Arabs from agreeing to such an arrangement, where each retain political and economic autonomy, but work together to further the economic development of the entire region of Palestine? Face it.. Israel would like to have more labor resources, the Palestinians need jobs and capital, and both sides need to develop water, agricultural, and fossil fuel resources. That's the "win-win". Israel gets to remain a "Jewish" state, while permitting Arabs to live there, and Arabs get their "Palestinian" state, while Jewish settlers get to live legally in the West Bank. Nothing different than if I live in one state here in the US, but work in a different one. I vote in my home state, but get my income working in another. People in the NY-DC corridor do it all the time. The only thing preventing it are the extremists on BOTH SIDES. Why not deflate their "balloon" and see moderates on each side working together to MUTUAL BENEFIT? Hawk

You continually show the folly of your inability/disability to read and comprehend the written word. Try again : It's pretty clear that both the Jews and the Arabs would find it easier to live without the presence of the other. But minus a war that involves WMD usage by either side, Israel is just not going to disappear. So for the Palestinian Arabs to think they are going to expel the Jews is folly and it severely detracts from their cause. Let the Palestinian Arabs stop this hostility and focus upon economic and political progressive development. Let us see what happens when they focus all that human emotion and devotion to positive social change and a better future. When I see that, then maybe I can spare some sympathy for the Palestinian Arabs. Hawk This is a discussion thread and it is not possible to have that discussion if you cannot read, understand and then discuss. Try reading Hawks post and commenting on what is written above and nothing else.... I dare you. My money is on your foolish pics being reposted and your total ignorance of his point that it is folly for the Pals to believe they can expel the Jews from Israel. I also have $$ on the Saints meeting the Colts in the super bowl just to show my prognosticating prowess.
