And what have the Palestinains given up? Have they decided to live in peace? Well no. Have they agreed to a wall, so Israel could live in peace? Well no. Have they notified the U.N. that they will accept an unconditional peace with Israel? Well no. Have they stopped trying to demonize Israel? Well no.
I am so fricken tired of everyone from Bush on down making demands on Israel, and not one demand on the Palestinians.
If Israel can block all attempts at killing it's people, that is considered a ceasefire and demands once again rain on Israel.
To H with those who keep demanding Israel do this and Israel do that, in the face of terrorism that has lasted for fifty-five years. Israel knows what it's like to face terrorism on a level we've seldom seen, and yet we side with the Palestinians more often than not in their demands.
How would we feel if Israel made crackpot demands on us to go PC on the insurgents in Iraq, or with Osama Bin Laden?
There are times when the Bush admiistration just loses touch with reality. Israel and our own borders are the two topics that elicit actions or inactions that are dumbfounding in their simplicity and ignorance.
