the calls that state "international law" means israeli must return to the 67 borders..or why cant israelis live in the westbank....or all the refugees and their "next of kin" must be able to return to their original village etc or my personal favorite: until justice is done, there will be no peace

all of those absolutes have nothing to do with solving the conflict.....they're simply slogans. Intl law runs a distant second to potential genocide or continual attacks on a israel by its neighbors....a lot of good intl law did, when hizballa is involved...seems to me they kind of ignored the intl border.

the conflict will be solved by pramatic viewpoints that take into account the emotional aspects. Not give in to them, but symbolically deal with them. There will be no justice for all, there will be no pure 67 border retreat......the end game is pretty clear to most of us, its just a matter of getting rid of the cheerleaders on the side who dont understand it, the extremists, who feed on them, and then dealing with the details.
