Now we get to see if they really want peace. Up until now it hasn't looked like it. Maybe something productive will come out of this, but i doubt it.
Does anyone REALLY expect to see an independent Palestinian state by the end of this decade? Withdrawl from areas is one thing, complete independence is something else. This is all a good step in the right direction, but it seems every time these two parties take one step in the right direction they end up taking two steps back the following week.
The Palestinian territory not being contiguous would suck, thats where a bunch of problems comes in. But if Michigan can do it the Palestinians can do it. They may not like it, but it can be done. Its certainly not worth fighting over.
