That's a rather cynical view you've got there.

You say Israel doesn't want peace? Then what do you call the numerous concessions which they have made over the past ten or so years? I suppose you've conveniently ignored how they have bent over backwards (Did you happen to miss how Israel forcibly removed it's own citizens from Gaza?) for many Arab countries while receiving an increase in violence for their efforts.

Now, if you would have said many Arab countries don't want peace with Israel, I would have been inclined to agree.
