Hizbullah and Hamas need to be compelled to understand that “they’re going down a blind alley with violence that weakens their legitimate claims.”

He’ll find something to negotiate. Sheikh Yassin, before his well deserved death, stated that if the Jews returned to Europe that Hamas wouldn’t pursue them there. That could be Obama’s basis for negotiations. Where they’ll go once Europe falls can be dealt with at that time.
