Gibber71 made a point, but I think it's hard to threaten the palestinians in any new way that would have a huge inpact on them. In that case it would have to be the other arab nations who where to put preasure on them.
But i don't know. It seems to me the militant palestinias feel like they don't have much to lose, and would rather die fighting the occupiers than bargin for the land that they have left. They're likely to ignore the palestinian government, since they think negotiating is useless. And when the militans won't stop fighting the Isrealies won't stop fighting either. Both of them blaming each other for ruining the peace process.
A reform in the palestinian authories is a good idea, but the problem is that the group willing to negotiate has little or no influence over the militants who are fighting.
*sigh* It would just have been so much easier if the jews had chosen another part of their world for their jewish state.
