The previous entry by cranberriesboy prompted me to write this, and, although I could have simply let this as a comment, I believe it is different enough an entry to make it a new post

Who gives a shit if Arabs in Israel have more rights? Who gives a shit if the actions of the extremist Palestinians are unjustified? It is a FACT that there are extremist Jews who do terrible things to Palestinians. Yes, they are smaller in size than the extremist Palestinians who commit suicide bombings against innocent Israeli civilians (and I have commented over and over again that those actions are atrocious), but I believe that, with enough ingenuity, it is surmuntable.
Israel successfully negotiated peace with Egypt after Nasser died. One of the main reasons is that America promised to supply Egypt with a shit load of foreign aid. Although America has done that with the road map, you might have hit on a very plausible road block , so to speak. You said that the corrupt Arab countries prevent the Palestinians from negotiating a peaceful solution. Perhaps they need to be taken care of, either diplomatically, economically (ie. shut-the-fuck-up money), or militarily.
For their to be actual peace, Palestinians need to make more of an effort to prevent Palestinian terrorism, and it must be admitted that it IS terrorism. Israelis need to not demolish Palestinian homes, build on Palestinian land (defined as land belonging/owned by a Palestinian) and not inflict collateral damage.
You've hit it right on the head, my friend. You just provided a perfect example to go with my post. (1) Suicide bomber blows himself up. (2) Angry Israelis demolish the bomber's family's home as well as the neighbors. (3) Angry brothers, sisters, neighbors and friends send out their boys (and now girls) to blow themselves up. (4) Angry Israelis demolish those homes. (5) They cycle repeats. Do you see how this goes ABSOLUTELY NOWHERE?!?!
