Reply #21: That's not responsive to my question, and irrelevant.

Either the Palestinians want a state or they want RoR. They aren't going to get both.

Let's be honest with each other. Virtually every poll of the Palestinians indicates that they are going to insist on RoR. You've given me no reason to think different. The Israelis understand this. They also know that the demand for RoR is inconsistent with any meaningful two state solution, or any peaceful solution. So the question they have to ask themselves is why they should withdraw the Occupation if it won't bring them peace? Perhaps it will surprise you to read that I think that they should do just that. The Israelis should fully withdraw from the West Bank and let the Palestinians have their state even if they won't renounce RoR; even if they won't sign a peace agreement. It might not bring peace, but it will bring clarity and resolution, and that may be all that the Israelis, or anyone can expect.
