Default Re: Polls, Palestinians and the Path to Peace (short article)

Let's just say Israel unilaterally ceded all "occupied territories" to the Palestinians and took other steps to show and effect goodwill. Palestinian rejectionists, including some of the worst such as Hamas and their al-Aqsa military brigades, would STILL try to attack and eliminate Israel: that even is their stated goal.

So while the causes of conflict are complex and many, there does appear to be one insurmountable obstacle to peace, as long as Palestinian rejectionism flourishes.

Focussing exclusively on this would be wrong and counterproductive, but ignoring its importance would be a serious error.
