It's Time for the Radicals to Stop Controlling Palestinian Lives
(AMIN) Rami Assali - The Palestinians decided that an armed struggle was the only way to achieve freedom. Those same people who chose the armed struggle used the same techniques against their own people. Instead of building their country they turned against each other and fought for power. They believed that violence was the solution to everything. The time of the armed struggle has gone; now it is time for negotiations. The Palestinian silent majority must take a stand before it is too late. Now we have nobody to blame but ourselves. It's about time the radicals stop controlling our lives and future. The writer, a Palestinian Jerusalemite, works for the Academy for Educational Development.
