If there are any Palestinian readers out there, I have a quick question for you all. Say, by some miracle, Israel decides to give you back land seized in the 1967 war. Would that mean that all of a sudden the Israeli-Palestinian conflict would be over? I ask this because I keep hearing from time to time about a peace plan and a roadmap and such. I always hear that the land is the #1 argument that the Palestinians want resolved.
Fair enough, but what then? Say every square centimeter is given back, are we to believe that there won't be another city bus bombing? No more restaurants being attacked by people with machine guns? You'll have to forgive my skepticism here because if Hamas, the PLO and other organizations attacked only Israeli military targets, I'd actually might have a hint of believing you. But since those groups have attacked civilians and other "soft" targets, I have to think that Palestinians as a general rule, just simply hate the Israelis. The recent election of Hamas seems to point in that direction. Now, Palestinians like to point out that Israeli soldiers have killed children and done other horrible crimes. Those soldiers should stand trial if those accusations are true. But on the flip side, Palestinians shouldn't be sending other children into Israel packed with explosives.
