Rubin is absolutely right. And he could even state the matter more clearly: for the PA, “peace” = control of Jerusalem, West Bank, everything; and the ONLY way that can happen is through Jihad.
you are both very correct.
it is much simpler than even Rubin says.
it has nothing to do with nationalism, etc.
it is simply religious.
Muslims are forbidden to accept a non-sharia government.
and especially, once a land has been under the control of Islam, it can never be tolerated under non-Muslim control.
Israel will NEVER be accepted or tolerated, by ANY true devout Muslim, whether ficticious “Palestianian”, or other.
Muslims can make “temporary” peace treaties.
but permanent peace with Israel, is simply impossible.
haram.
