First off,
They have been fighting for thousands of years, nothing will be decided in two.......

Now my take:
It is a Catch-22 thing. The Jews are greedy bastards and are not willing to stop spreading out into these settlements. Yes, they created life from desert sand, but BFD. I was watching the news the other night and they were showing Israeli soldiers trying to kick these settlers out. They were fighting each other and basically told Sharon "FU", we are not leaving. It is always more, more, more.... But, on the other hand I do not understand we they do not obliderate these Palestinian terrorist cells. They should not have to put up with this terror.

As for the Palestinians...they just don't get it. Their hatred of non-muslims, especially Jews, is blinding their chances for advancement. They believe killing innocent people is a means to an end. Clearly they are wrong. But, there is nothing we can do to change that. Their new PM is negotiating a pretty decent deal for them, and what do they do, three terrorist organizations basically say "FU" and we are not going along and are going to continue to kill Jews. So, to them, it has nothing to do with being a free state. They just want to kill Jews.

I agree we, the USA, should have NOTHING to do with this area. It is a MiddleEast problem. Let them go to war.....If the Palestinians think they can win, more power to them.

NYMADMAN,
Not sure if I fully agree with you. Aren't the Israeli's just as much "mutts" in the Middle East as Palestinians? Aren't the Jews there from Europe after WWII when Israel was formed? There was no Israel before 1947. They basically have as much right to the land as the Palestinians. Just because they "claimed" it 2,000 years ago, doesn't mean it is all theirs. That would be just like American Indians claiming the USA is theirs because they were here first, but have come back now to "reclaim" it. Right? Land is always fought over and exchanged during wars, but you don't give it back after?
