You realize that all peace talks have failed, because the Palestinian governments refused any deal that required them to recognize Israel's right to exist. Every deal.
And before that, when Israel accepted the offer by the British, the Palestinians didn't accept it because the surrounding countries essentially said they would kill all of the Jews in Israel and take the entire area. Which they tried. Twice. And lost. Twice. And in the ceasefire terms, those countries granted Israel those disputed territories. Actually much more than they currently have, as they gave back most of it to Egypt in peace talks with them.
Palestine could have been a country many times over. But they do not want peace. They wants the whole of Israel.
And during all of those time, things have just gotten worse. And the hatred between the two sides grows. But the only thing that has stopped Palestine from being a country is the fact that the governments of Palestine believe negotiations start and stop at having it all.
So tell me, how does anyone free Palestine?
You got any sources? I'm not that well read up on the conflict.
I second that request, I need to know more and read more about all of this and all of the sides, before I know what I'm talking about.
