I have not been swayed, my opinion is the same as it has been for years. This is not a good guys/bad guys scenario. It is a lunatic asylum scenario. It should be quite clear to anyone who follows what actually happens, rather than the biased versions of the press, that the main reason peace has never worked, is because Israel is simply not interested in a peaceful settlement, they are only interested in settlements...on other peoples land. Time after time it is Israel (and the US) that has blocked progress, defied UN resolutions and ensures that the conflict continues.I'd far prefer Israel over the other options, but if people continue to be so easily swayed the entire region is going to become a sheet of glass.
I can't understand what it is that you prefer? never ending conflict caused by their expansionist ambitions? Or that you would prefer to see the Palestinians terrorised from their homes and the nation of their birth by religious extremism?
