The Egypt, Israel, Jordan peace agreements were based upon a simple concept. Old men tired of fighting who cared about the young people in their countries more than fighting their old enemies.

The problem in trying to find peace with the Palestinians is that they aren't tired of fighting. The old guys that run the Palestinian political groups know they lack the ability to govern and are more than willing to allow the fighting to continue. It is a peace that won't hold.

I think it was Golda Mier who said that "peace will come to the Middle East when Arabs start loving their children more than they hate Jews".
