"Here is the question that nobody has ever been able to answer for me: Why deal with the Palestinians at all? "

why does the u.s. deal with mexico?
ignorant n primitive people....cheap LABOR...

[Alberta's Child]

If that is the only rationale, then Israel deserves whatever these Palestinians are willing to give them. It is only a matter of time before Israel ceases to exist.
