8. At some point, you're going to have to face reality.
It is IMPOSSIBLE to establish peace between Israel and the rest of the Arab world as long as the Israeli government keeps Palestinians under its bootheel. ONLY when the Palestinians are actually allowed the natural right of EVERY other nation on Earth, the right to self-determination, can the rank-and-file Arab people who are now finding their voice and breaking their chains be expected to live in peace with Israel.

How could you ever have thought it was reasonable to expect them to make peace as long as the Occupation continued and the settlements remained in place?
