Reply #117: Not a major break, I support a Palestinian state

[Muddleoftheroad]

Whenever the Palestinian leadership decides on a peaceful and anti-terrorist path.

As for what you consider the "occupation," here you and I differ. Why should Israel give up land and get nothing in return? It gets no peace treaty. No agreed to borders. No commitments whatsoever. And then it all begins again.

That is foolish beyond belief.

As for the Peace Fence, it is long overdue. It is a way to separate two warring groups and protect Israeli civilians from endless terror attacks.

I'm sorry you consider Israel "a small state devoid of useful resources," since that isn't true. Israel has an advanced high-tech economy and could be a major employer for the region if its enemies stopped waging war and terror against it.

Israel chose Sharon to do exactly what generals do, defend it from massive ongoing attack. If the Palestinians chose peace, Sharon would be gone with the wind.
