You and most here Believe that it is the goal of the Arabs/Palestinians to exterminate Jews - to destroy Israel - to push them into the sea. Few here believe that there is anything beyond blind, mindless, bigoted hate motivating the Palestinians

That's just silly. PLO was established 3 years before the "occupation" with its goal to destroy Israel. Arabs are only negotiating because they realize that they can't win through force (and they tried plenty of times).. Look at Lebanon.. Israel pulled out and hezbollah is still not satisfied..

The Pals have lost far more people than the Israelis. And Arafat has now arrested all of Ze'evi's killers as ordered by US. Sharon can look like the peacemaker and call the bluff of the Arabs, while still unleashing hell.

What's the point? Iraqis lost far more people then we did in the gulf war? And? Your point? What's more, these people run around hoping to die, brothers and sisters of suicide bombers, when interviewed tell reporters how proud they are, and how some day they want to die blowing up israelis.. These people WANT to die and be martyred. Jews don't.

And Arafat has now arrested all of Ze'evi's killers as ordered by US.

Has Arafat outlawed Hamas, Islamic Jihad, etc? The same organizations that conduct suicide bombings?

Sharon can look like the peacemaker and call the bluff of the Arabs, while still unleashing hell.

The bluff of the arabs has been called a number of times, the last time in camp david.
