If only Israel would "decide" how much of the West Bank it wants...we might be able to talk the Palestinians into going along...especially now that the "bad boys" of Hamas have been chosen to be the "hall monitors" of the would be State of Palestine.

BUT WITH BOTH ARAFAT AND SHARON GONE NOW...THERE IS A REAL POSSIBILITY FOR PEACE...
