That's my opinion as well, but until the Palestinians actually vote we'll never know. I'm using the relative peace of the 90s as an indicator. The core issue is information: You'll have people like Mike who claim most Palestinians want war, and you'll have people who claim the opposite of Israelis. It's a non-stop debate that allows for no fact-based 3rd party action. In order to control the issue you need some undebateable fact that you can use to justify action. What that action is can be worked out. Maybe it's sanctions, maybe it's invasion, whatever. But until you can justify it, or Palestinian gov't control can be solidified, there is no solution. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:174106 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
