I disagree with that assessment. Israel gave away a ton of territory they've won in defensive wars. Sinai back to Egypt - that area alone is several times the size of Israel. South Lebanon back to Lebanon. Gaza back to Palestinians. Prior to Syrian civil war there was talk of Golan Heights going back to Syria in exchange for peace. There were multiple major attempts to make peace (like Clinton effort) where the Arabs walked away.
This tells me that Israel is willing to talk and the other side - no so much.
- toyg 7y agoThis has nothing to do with the human rights of people living in the territories, please don’t reach for talking points.
- starik36 7y agoWhen you mentioned vicious cycle, I assumed you referred to the never ending conflict rather than human rights. That is what I was referring to. These are not talking points. It’s my observation.
