...The Palestinians have never given us the confidence that they want to make peace with us. In fact, the opposite is true.
We seem to want a Palestinian state more than they do...They continue on their merry way because they have never had to pay a cost for their intransigence.
Building in the major settlement blocks should be a given with no afterthought of what the Palestinians will do regarding the peace process. If they want to leave it, so be it. If they refuse to negotiate, we should build beyond those areas and create facts on the ground.
The Palestinians have to realize once and for all that past promises must be kept; otherwise, there will be a cost involved.
No more groveling and begging from our leaders. If we stay strong, as we did in 1967, the Arabs will understand that they have no choice but to negotiate, and we will negotiate with strength.
Where else in history has the defeated side, in a war that it started, dictated the terms of the agreement?
