Peace already exists between Israel and the Palestinian Arabs. The racist hate crimes committed by Arab gangs in Gaza and the West Bank fall under the category of criminal activity.

As with democracy and civil rights, it helps provide a model that Arabs can aspire to instead of wasting so much energy hating and scheming to conquer everyone who isn't not only Muslim but their kind of Muslim. In this way, Israel serves as a beacon of light to guide the Arabs out of their Dark Ages into the brighter prospects of prosperous democracies.

I still say that Palestine was the model democracy in the ME.
It took the US about four months to destroy it.

Seriously, the unity government of 2007 was the example that would have a positive effect on the region.

There was no unity government and there can be no unity government. Hamas is recognized as a terrorist organization not only by the US and Israel but also by the EU and UN, and it would be illegal for any of these to provide financial support to any government that included Hamas. A unity government would be bankrupt within a month or two. Hamas has to stop fostering, fomenting and committing racist hate crimes against Jews before it can hope to gain any kind of international legitimacy.

Again, it never existed, and can never exist. This is just Hamas propaganda.
On February 8 2007 Saudi-sponsored negotiations in Mecca produced agreement on a Palestinian national unity government signed by Mahmoud Abbas on behalf of Fatah and Khaled Mashal on behalf of Hamas. The new government was called on to achieve Palestinian national goals as approved by the Palestine National Council, the clauses of the Basic Law and the National Reconciliation Document (the "Prisoners' Document") as well as the decisions of the Arab summit. [2]
In March 2007, the Palestinian Legislative Council established a national unity government, with 83 representatives voting in favor and three against. Government ministers were sworn in by Abu Mazen, the chairman on the Palestinian Authority, in at a ceremony held simultaneously in Gaza and Ramallah.

Again, it never existed, and can never exist. This is just Hamas propaganda.
And by June it was over. This was a unity gesture, one of many, not a functioning government. Since Hamas is regarded as a terrorist organization by both the US and EU, it would have been illegal for either of them to fund the PA, and it would have been bankrupt in a short time. This is just as true today as it was then. There can never be a unity government while Hamas continues to be considered a terrorist organization by the US and EU.
Since Hamas is regarded as a terrorist organization by both the US and EU,...
The Palestinian cabinet that was formed on June 17, 2007 (Arabic: المجلس الفلسطيني لحزيران 17 2007*) by Salam Fayyad is an emergency cabinet. While widely supported by the international community, it is viewed by some as illegitimate and unconstitutional. President Mahmoud Abbas suspended certain articles from the Basic Law in order for the cabinet to be sworn in without the approval of the Palestinian Legislative Council.
Effectively, the current Palestinian government under Fayyad acts without a backing legislature.

Idiot, the fact that Hamas is considered a terrorist organization means no government that includes Hamas can be funded by the US or EU, the principal sources of income for the PA. This means a unity government with Hamas cannot survive financially unless Hamas convinces the US and EU to take it off their terrorist lists. This is the reason that in 2007 Abbas had to oppose the Hamas government in order to save the PA.

It is evident that you understand how the children in our government think. If our government is too stupid and lazy to deal with an elected government we need a better government.
