You seem to be alone on this thread over the Saudi Peace Plan. My take on the reaction is that, the Israeli-firsters are following the Nile to Euphrates faction in Israeli politics who persist in the desire to create what they believe is the 'God given' grant of land to his 'chosen people'. A negotiated settlement based on the Saudi plan would give Israel what is has never had, clearly defined borders. No wonder Sharon would not allow Arafat to go to the conference. Likud and its allies cannot allow any move to a settlement which would constrain their territorial ambitions. People have said that the plan gives Israeli nothing, as if the acceptanced by the Palestinians and their allies of the Israeli acquisition of 78% of Palestine is nothing! No matter how much they twist and turn over the issue, the solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is the creation of a viable Palestinian state, with East Jerusalem as its capital. Genocidal fanatasies on both sides,remain just that fantasies.
