So I hear on ABC radio that the Natives in Palestine are going ballistic.

Israel should take advantage of this opportunity to finally deal with the murderous pallys.

It will never end. Religious wars are the worst.

The Israel / Palestinian conflict in reality has nothing to do with religion.

Naive

No really. That's the truth. Israeli Jews are VERY religious tolerant. There are plenty of Arabs in their Knesset. They don't HAVE "a Muslim problem". They have an indigenous people problem who won't form an official Nationalist movement to govern and negotiate.

The Palestinian leadership has gotten kicked OUT of a couple neighboring countries. Arafat and crew drove tanks against the King of Jordan in Amman and he sent their asses packing. They have been INTERNED in ACTUAL refugees camps there in Syria/Lebanon. HORRID conditions compared to thriving Pali cities in the West Bank.

It's NOT about religion. It's about an occupation gone on several decades TOO LONG because there is no reliable party to negotiate with.

You speak of one partys motive as if that is the whole story.

That's not one's party's motive. That's the reason why there is a 50 yr "occupation".. Israel bent over backwards to release Gaza to the PA.. The PA was no more in 18 months. How stupid would it be to negotiate the same way again?

If the Palis WANT a nation state -- they have to appoint leadership. You don't "give" a nation state to an unorganized mob. They did it with the PA. They HAVE to do it again. That's why the pressure is being put on them. They're wasting generations of folks tossing rocks.. If they have to have a Civil War over electing these leaders --- maybe that has to happen.
