How would you solve the problem of 3 million Palestinians in the occupied territory?
The number one problem Israel has with the Road Map is that it only gives lip-service to reform. The President has not given lip-service to reform... but the Road Map, in its current form... says a state period in 5 years. With or without reform.
Now, if the Palestinians want to join the civilized world, then the Palestinians must dismantle Islamic Jihad, vote out Arafat, and stop the terror, etc.
To Israel, this must be done first, then negotiations can commence for statehood.
To me, this is not too much for Israel to ask for.
When you write that because Israel accepts aid from us, they must dance to our tune is asking Israel to commit national suicide. Whereas the West seems to be blind to the danger. Israel is not.
I'd start by telling the truth: Jordan is the occupied terrirory of the "palestinian" homeland. That is the reason for Jordan's existence.
Every aspect of virtually every high level discussion, peace, plan, or road map, is based on lies. The truth should be told, and when the "palestinians" respond with more acts of war, they should get what they've asked for.
The Jews gave up 78% of the Transjordan for peace in 1922. There should be no more rewards for Arab atrocities.
