P F Tinmore, et al,
I'm not sure who is the most amusing; you or me?
All these factors and the level of cooperation contribute to the failure of the Arab Palestinians to make a working state for its people.
What a silly statement. There never was going to Palestinian state. The Zionists have always wanted all of Palestine without the Palestinians.

What the "Zionist"
want and what the "Zionist"
get are two different achievements
! Most importantly, what the Arab Palestinians want, and what the "Zionist" want --- are, in the case, confrontational, only because you have defined it that way. Not because it is actually that way. The Arab Palestinians are motivationally retarded by their own misdirection.
There is this Generalized Theory called Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs which is one derivative of the D
rive Theory of Motivation. It's application here is simple. The contemporary Arab Palestinian People of today are motivated to take certain actions in order to reduce the internal tension and disappointment that is caused by unmet needs. Their perception is that if they achieve some measure of increased autonomy, their lives and well being will be improved. As exemplars, this is what the People of Iran felt, and what motivated the People of the DAESH (ISIS). It was, in part, the spark that was behind the "Arab Spring."
You will find this motivational based drive theory is very useful in explaining behaviors that have a strong biological components and generationally passed aggression, such as as we see in the Gaza Strip and West Bank --- pasted from parent to children, and taught in schools and summer camps. The problem with the drive theory of motivation is that these behaviors are not always motivated purely by physiological needs. For example, Arab Palestinians often spontaneously create a crowd to incite civil unrest and disorder even when they are not really in any new pain or need. All successful peoples and cultures share in this drive and determination. But in the Middle East spectrum of drive and determination, the extreme right is marked by this enjoyment to ruthless obsession. In our case, this is characterized by unfocused need to direct "Harm and injury solely against the Israeli, the Occupation Power, as opposed to the exploitation of that Power to achieve benefits for the citizenry.
NOW, are all Arab Palestinians focused in this way? (Rhetorical) --- NO
! There are a surprising number of personalities driven in the pursuit of personal power and wealth; with a vast number willing to follow. The
The Arab Palestinian cannot seem to adopt proven strategies, single minded focus, and a strong sense of direction, to move towards activities that better advance the culture and improve the society.
“There are many advantages to powerful determination and a strong sense of direction. The sense of direction urges action. The sense of direction shapes the action. The sense of direction allows the value of the action to be assessed: has it got me nearer to my goal? The sense of direction allows all judgments and decisions to be made more easily: does this help me toward my goal or does this hinder me? Most people in their ordinary lives lack such a strong sense of value when taking a decision. Most people may have to take into account a soup of different factors such as family, health, enjoyment, career, etc., when making a decision. The strongly-success oriented person only takes into account one thing: the path to success.” (SOURCE: From the Book Tactics: The Art and Science of Success – by Edward De Bono)
There are a vast number of Arab Palestinians that have poisoned themselves. This is not unlike the First Emperor of China drinking Mercury as a cure for a long life, but actually giving Heavy Metal Poisoning. The Arab Palestinians, like the First Emperor, embarked on a path that achieve the exact opposite of the desired effect
(the satisfaction, development, peace and security). And like the First Emperor --- it is unlikely that the Arab Palestinian will recognize they are on the wrong path until they get to the end.
Settler colonialism is the replacement of the native population with foreign settlers. You are going to get the boot anyway, faster if you cooperate. The Zionists are still working on that goal as we speak.
(COMMENT)
Again, the is the generalized thinking derives from the generational poisoning. The Arab Palestinians must direct some of their energies towards the adoption of strategies of people with determination and drive to improve their success as a nation. Not towards Jihad and Armed Struggle as HAMAS and FATAH consistently promote.
BTW, what do you get out of pimping for Israel?
Just curious.
(ANSWER)
This is merely a shrewd attack on the character of my presentation; as opposed to the actual content. The idea that I am a person who promotes or advances a particular theme or cause is a case of misdirection.
Most Respectfully,
