They have lost much of their population since the Six Day War, and especially after the Yom Kippur War. Nobody wants to live under constant threat nor do they want their men to spend 2 or 3 or 4 months out of the year in military service till they are 55 years old. Also they expect their economy to boom once they are relieved from military expeditures. They reall do want peace. They just don't wan't to die for it by giving away their security. >> If the Israeli really wanted peace, it could be easily achieved. I don't know what the Israeli (pricipally Jewish) faith feels about "compromise," but I do know its place in the Moslem faith. When Sadat came to Israel, he was doing something that true Moslems hold in high regard. He was sacrificing everything to make a peace with Israel. Even his life was forfeit, and I have always thought he knew that. If the Israeli would accept the Palestinians as fellow human beings (they have been completely dehumanized for purposes of oppression), treat them as fellow citizens with the same essential needs as those of Israeli, stop compartmentalizing their living spaces, and most of all admit that the Palestinians have as much right to life and freedom to come and go as anyone else in Israel, I think all that "terrorism" would fade out of existence. Peace is something that would have to come from pure hearts. It is not something that can be "planned" to keep a people in misery for years and years as abstract discussions go on between suspect authorities in very comfortable surroundings.
