This article addresses what, essentially, is
"the Elephant in the Living Room" in this whole conflict. It is really the bottom line, and probably not something that is going to be remedied within our lifetimes. This problem is fundamental, it goes to the very core of their centuries old beliefs. This is much harder than convincing the world that Communism was a bad idea, commies were spring chickens compared to this..

This artical is not quite true. The people of the middle east do not merely hate the Jews. They hate everybody else too.

Look: Possibly there would be some abstract justice in closing down the settlements, I don't know. I don't see it myself, I must admit. Why should Jews not live among Arabs? Lots of Arabs live in Israel, and do very well there. There are rich Israeli Arabs; there are Israeli-Arab pop stars and comedians; there are Israeli-Arab intellectuals, teachers, writers, businessmen, athletes. Why, when the whole thing gets sorted out, should there not be Jews living in Arab territory as there were for centuries past? What, exactly, is wrong with the settlements? I don't see it. The Israeli settlements are, according to the Fourth Geneva Convention, illegal colonies of an occupying power. Israel has used security for the settlements as an excuse to set up an oppressive apartheid-like system of controls over the Arab population of the West Bank and Gaza. The Israeli settlers are part-and-parcel of the barbaric Israeli occupation. Jews who want to live peacefully among Arabs in the West Bank or Gaza should apply to live there as ordinary residents, subject to local laws.

Why should Jews not live among Arabs? Perhaps an even more illuminating question is Why should Arabs live among Arabs ?
