Of course it matters.What Nilet refuses to understand (not fails - refuses) is that the Palestinian leadership is not interested in peace with Israel and in fact is determined to destroy it. Period, end of story. It has been said many ways and it is completely true. If the Palestinians would put down their guns, there would be no war. If the Israelis would put down their guns, there would be no Israel. Everything Israel has done is designed to keep the Palestinians at bay to ensure the survival of Israelis. When Palestinians recognize the right of Jews to reside in peace, then peace will be possible. As long as they maintain the "my way or highway" attitude, nothing will get done. Its awful that it has to be this way, but that is the situation. People like Nilet are deluded. They think, "oh, Israel is at fault for the problems in the Middle East because they mistreat the poor Palestinians. If they would just give the Palestinians the opportunity to flourish, they would do so." Of course, Nilet conveniently ignores what happened in Gaza. Nilet continues to believe that Gaza's poverty is Israel's fault and that Hamas is just a peaceful, kumbaya-singing bunch of flower children who just want to be friends. Every step Israel takes backward, ceding land or principles to the Palestinians, has been met with violence. When Ehud Barak offered Arafat almost everything he wanted, Arafat walked out and started a new uprising. Where was the recognition that Israel was a peace partner? Where was - and is - the Palestinian concessions? |
