(National Post-Canada) George Jonas - The Palestinians could have had their state all along if their aim had been coexistence with the Jewish state and not its elimination. They could have had a Palestinian state before a Jewish state ever came into being, by accepting the Peel Commission's recommendations for partition in 1936. But Israel's opponents had zero interest in the peace process except as a ruse and a propaganda tool. The Arab and Muslim world is guided by ideas and emotions, religious as well as secular, that never got past the Middle Ages. For Israel to trade land for peace in such a climate is, if anything, detrimental to peace. Expecting Palestinians to stop attacking Israel by distributing land to them is like expecting sharks to stop attacking swimmers by pouring blood into the water. The question was never whether Israel would give land for peace, but whether it could get peace for land. The answer is possibly yes, one day, but not yet. 2015-03-27 00:00:00Full Article
