| superchunk said: yeah, the Palestinians are bullies. sure. You see my point is US is way too pro-Israel so the Palestinian viewpoint is largely ignored. That can't possible create peace. 'anti-Israeli' was probably a poor choice of a word. We need a president who is not on the APAIC payroll. Unfortunately all polictians have to be annoyingly pro-Israeli because our media has entrenched false truths into our population about the conflict.

One thing you have to consider is that even if you generated a completely independant and free Palestine the middle east would still not be peaceful ... Palestine is just the excuse for mad-men to call for the destuction of Israel and the extermination of the Jewish people who live within Israel; and if Palestine is no longer a viable excuse another issue will pop up immediately.
I could be entirely wrong, but the only thing I can imagine will actually bring long term peace to the middle east would be to make all of the countries capitalist democracies that trade with eachother. I know this goes against the beliefs of many Progressive minded people, but you can never find peace with a country that is ruled by a man who maintains his power by promising to destroy you. Capitalist democracies that trade with eachother do not go to war with eachother because they both have far too much to lose from it.
