Something the arab world in general and the Palestinians in particularly must understand is Israel is a fact, a great big 800lb gorrila fact of life. They aren't going away,no matter how much they want it to. 50yrs of war have got them what?< /retorical question> A good defination of insainity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

Memo to the Palestinians, make peace !

.....Israel is a fact, a great big 800lb gorrila fact of life.

Yes. Seemingly so. But that applies when you are speaking about a person having a problem which seems like an 800-lb. gorilla. In this case, however, the Arab world is the 800 pound gorilla and Israel is a little ant. Look at the map for perspective. Israel is not the problem. The problem is a massive ethnic population, which occupies the vast land mass surrounding Israel, which suffers from a collective psychiatric anger management problem and which violently expresses its blind prejudice and bigotry toward a tiny minority.
