The Israelis need to end the occupation of the West Bank and and to stop repressing the legitimate national aspirations of the Palestinians. Case in point: Palestinians must agree to first recognize Israel, second to end all violence, third to accept past agreements. Try to find a mention , ANYWHERE, of the fact that the United States and Israel reject all three of those. They obviously don`t recognize Palestine, they certainly don`t withdraw the use of violence or the threat of it -- in fact they insist on it -- and they don`t accept past agreements, including the road map.They don`t accept the Arab League proposal or any other serious proposal. In fact they"ve been blocking the international consensus on the two-state solution for decades. If the tide was turned would the Israeli`s fight, of course ! If someone invaded Israel, would they fight, hell yes! It`s time to end Israels discredited and misguided policies.
