I have long grown weary of all the talk on the Mideast Peace Process and how Israel is always making it more difficult to have peace. This is nonsense. The Palestinians will never agree to co-exist with Israel. They have stated their goal of the destruction of Israel many, many times. If Israel surrendered 99% of its territory, the Palestinians would blame Israel for ruining the peace process by not surrendering that last percent. There can be no peace when one party can only be satisfied by the destruction of the other party. This state of affairs is common knowledge and yet everyone claims to want the peace process to continue. Thus, I am always amazed when people I respect talk of the peace process as if it weren't a chimera. There is no peace process. There has never been a peace process. It is the Israeli Surrender Process. Those who desire the destruction of Israel are content to accept small gains (withdrawal from Gaza, withdrawal from Lebanon, etc.) while surrendering nothing themselves. I have seen the process for 25 years and, through various reading, discovered it has been ongoing since the creation of Modern Israel in 1948. Right now, the Palestinians may lose every battle but they are winning the war. If Israel still exists in 20 years, there will still be no peace.
Peace is easy. All you have to do is surrender.

Couldn’t agree more. The “Palestinians” real agenda is the total destruction of Israel as a Jewish state. They will never settle for peace. I put “Palestinians” in quotes since it is a term implying a people of a country, a language, a culture, an ethnic group. Yet, in reality there is not nor has ever been a sovereign entity called “Palestine”. Arafat was an Egyptian.
Israel will definitely still exist in 20 years and we need them to exist. By preemptively protecting themselves from nuclear destruction from their neighbors they help protect the rest of the world from Muslim extremists. And, they do it better than we can – especially now with our current administration.
