| A good sign. Israel as the stronger party must not let extremists foil the ceasefire, israel is the STATE here. Palestinians have no state, they cannot control everyone, its ridiculous for israel to demand the pa or hamas, control everyone, and at the same time work to weaken them continually.
This is similar to sharons "100 days of calm" before negotiation. O rly ?
How about the palestinians simply end all attacks, end all resistance to occupation and just forget about the whole thing, then we can negotiate....what exactly ?
You negotiate with your enemies, and DURING conflict. imagine the us demanding north korea or north vietnam end all attacks and all resistance, before negotiations begin !
We would have lost every single soilder by now, israel cannot keep up the occupation, nor can it fight beyond its borders as the lebanon war demonstrated. |
