Zoolander,
I think maybe there are some things you should know about me that will clear up a few things.
First of all, no need to be polite just because I'm a female. Honestly. I've survived a lot more than impoliteness from people. (What's up with this smilly? lookes like he has a black eye instead of winking)
Second of all I don't surf the net all day just to get info in the conflict. I grew up in this conflict and I live it every day. As an Israeli who lives this situation everyday and gets her knowledge on the conflict first hand, and not just from the media, I think I'm just a little better informed than you.
To be honest, I used to believe in the peace process. I voted left wing parties ever since I started voting, and I was a part of the peace movement. But what can I say, when your dad calls you to tell you a bus blew up in front of your brother's face, you kind of lose your trust in the other side.
So at the moment I see no hope for a peace agreement being signed anytime soon. I'm intersted in survival and in saving as many lives of my people as possible. So a seperation is the only solution I see. If you ask me what I perfer, dumping the other side and letting them rot in their swamp or trying to help them and risking another bus blowing up in my brother's face, I chose the first option, and I'm pretty sure you will too.
When they decide they're serious and wanna talk, we're here to talk. Until then I don't want a thing to do with them. It's that simple.
