See, that wasn't so hard after all, was it? I knew you could.
But you're joking, right? The "plan" calls for Hamas to disavow violence. The same Hamas is dedicated to the destruction of Israel, ergo they will never renounce violence.
So in two sentences I have eviscerated your "plan." Talk about not based in reality.
In reality, every plan so far tried has been a wretched failure. They have tried bilateral talks. Those failed. They have tried having the U.S. negotiate. That failed. They have tried having the Europeans negotiate. That failed. They have tried having the Russians negotiate. That failed. Israel tried giving the west bank back to Jordan. That failed. They have tried setting up a "starter state" in the PA. That failed when the Palis voted in Hamas who then machine gunned their opposition in the streets.
We have over 30 years of failed attempts to resolve this. There are no good solutions, only ones that might work.
And the only solution that might work is relocating the Palestinians elsewhere.
This reminds me of the guy who drank gin and tonic and got a hangover. Then he drank vodka and tonic and got a hangover. Then he drank whiskey and tonic and got a hangover. He conclude that it was the tonic that was giving him the hangover.
All of these so called peace negotiations have the same basic flaw that keeps them from being successful. Time after time they throw in the same clunkers that ensure failure.
Yeah. That continued existence of Israel is a deal killer every time.
Pretty much. The Palestinians have to agree that Israel had the right to steal their land and give them the boot. That is a tough sell.
