toastman, P F Tinmore,
et al,
You cannot argue points like this with P F Tinmore. He follows the Covenant to the letter.
(COMMENT)
The Hostile Arab Palestinian (HoAP) has a narrow perspective.
The HoAP believe that all the territory, formerly under LoN Mandate to the UK, less the Hashemite Kingdom, is Arab territory, subject to Arab Rule as an Islamic Waqf
(an inalienable religious endowment) under Shira Law.
Until some aspect of the Arab-Palestinian people comes to the understanding that peace is a better choice than conflict, the Arab-Palestinian should be quarantined until the threat posed has passed.
While I hope that the ongoing talks come to a settlement, I see a quasi-Government and people in chaos that do not support any facet of peace and consistently make claims to rights and honors that they simply cannot support as a peaceful people.
Most Respectfully,

Would a peaceful people impose a death zone in order to facilitate their colonization of an indigenous population?

"Death zones" near the fence
"Since the outbreak of the second intifada, in late September 2000, Israeli security forces have killed at least 284 Palestinians near the Gaza Strip perimeter fence. At least 117 of the fatalities were civilians (including twenty-three minors) who were not taking part in the hostilities.
"The large number of cases indicates, apparently, that the IDF has classified substantial areas near the fence as 'death zones,' i.e., soldiers are under standing orders to fire at any person who enters the area, regardless of the circumstances.
"IDF officials, among them Judge Advocate General Avihai Mandeblit, vociferously deny that any such order has been given. However, the killings in the area since disengagement belie the army's denial."
