Well then, Sonart, since you're so conceptually challenged when it comes to understanding how the Israelis might have had the wisdom to follow this advice from a decorated IDF combat veteran and member of the Knesset, you should, logically, "find it difficult to greatly fault" the Palestinians for being so incurably grouchy after 40 years.
For my part I really find it interesting to imagine what Abu bin Sonart of Sonart would think as he lugged a pail of filthy water under the hot sun for his children to drink. No doubt he'd be thinking "Y'know, if we only stopped foarming at the mouth, those Israelis would start being right NICE to us, yep."
Avnery predicted the whirlwind. And he was bang on the money.
To your proverb, I reply:
and it takes two to tango.
