    you're way off here. the main issue that broke-up the Oslo Accords was the right of return. The ONLY reason the Israelis are pursuing seperation and accomodation recently is demographic pressure, they are backpedaling in hopes of preserving a Jewish majority state. See me after class if you are still confused on this point.

    I have no problem addressing the wrongs of the past. But, to place them strictly on israel is ridiculous. It wasn't israel that forced Balfour document, etc.
    Will you be hosting a Palestinean family in your home? Come on, the Israelis are the only party that can solve the problem. it is not just a matter of righting past wrongs; there's the current festering, dangerous conditions.

    As said many times, the palestinians have never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity.
    It seems like the Palestinean expecations always lag reality by about 5 or 10 years.

    But these realities have been shaped by the Israeli settlement program , a policy designed to make a negotiated settlement impossible. Isreal has been schizophrenic. Recently the demographic threat seems to be narrowing differences between Israeli right and left, they are ready to deal.

    I agree with Arafats decision to reject Oslo, but they should have kept on negotiating. They came close to an agreement. But hell broke out as Arafat made a terrible decsion, and he was joined in idiocy by right-wing, Greater Isreal types.

    • This Rathskellar talk is still going on?

      Let's just bust it up, head back to Mifflin Street, and we'll twist a few.

      Later we can go the Food Co-op and see what the hairy-pitted hotties are up to.
