THIS IS LIKE A COMPLICATED GAME OF TRUTH OR DARE. DARE THE PALIS TO CHANGE, OR FIND OUT WHAT I KNOW IS THE TRUTH. THE TRUTH ACCORDING TO ME IS THAT THE PALESTINIANS (AND THE ARAB WORLD AS A WHOLE) CANNOT STAND THE FACT THAT A DEMOCRACY (ESPECIALLY ONE RUN BY THE ZIONIST INFIDELS) AND WHATS WORSE IS EVERYTIME THE ARABS ATTACK ISRAEL THEY LOSE. CAN YOU IMAGINE BEING 5 LARGE NATIONS AND BEING BEATEN REPEATEDLY BY A SPECK ON THE MAP? IT DOESNT MAKE FOR A FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD ATMOSPHERE. IN MY OPINION WE WILL NOT SEE TRUE PEACE SHOWN ON THE PART OF THE ARABS TOWARDS THE ISRAELI'S IN MY LIFETIME, ALL I CAN HOPE FOR IS THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY, MY COUSINS SERVING IN THE MILITARY AND THOSE WHO ARE CIVILLIANS.....MAY G-D WATCH OVER THEM!!!!!!

You are referring to the six day war, I presume. Well, Egypt and Jordan have since signed peace treaties with Israel.... and have accepted their "right to exsist". Other countries have not...... and that's a condition of the roadmap for the PA to do. I don't expect that even if they do, they'll live up to it. But, any success of peace in the region is not dependent on the PA, but on it's neighbors - like Syria, Lebanon, (Iraq is no longer a problem), and others. If syria, for example, actually gives up their occupation of lebanon, and does away with all terrorist support, etc, etc...... that will have more effect on peace than what the PA does.

I don't believe peace is going to come by 2005. Maybe never. But..... if any kind of WMD hits Israel, Israel is ready to retaliate quite directly. They aren't going to 'negotiate'..... they'll use their nukes on Damascus and others if necessary. They have nothing to lose but their country. And I 'think' their neighbors know this. Which is why the "homicide attacks" are as much of violence that anyone will do. Imagine what would happen if rockets started raining down on Israel from Hezbollah located in Lebonon. Israel isn't going to just 'talk'..... and that's what scares the hell out of Damascus, since they control Lebanon.

The roadmap is DOA I'm afraid. Arafat has to be gone first. And other countries must sign the peace treaties. The PA isn't even a state - they can't sign a thing. But.... I'm willing to watch.
