> Ariel Sharon who has, despite being a hard right-winger, lead the disengagement from Gaza This was not an attempt to further the peace process. It was motivated by the expense and difficulty of a military occupation of a densely populated urban area. > You seem to be placing the responsibility for these failures entirely on one side. Please, no need for that. I'm aware of Hamas' efforts to counter any moves towards peace. And of the effects of the suicide bombing campaign. Similarly any talk of peace from the Israeli government is meaningless while settlement of the West Bank continues. |

The same can be said of the terror attacks. I strongly agree that the settlements are an obstacle to peace and apologize if my comment came off as aggressive. But you have to realize that this is a deadlock. No Israeli leader can stop the settlements as long as there are terror attacks, and no Palestinian leader can stop the terror attacks as long as there are settlements. That is our tragedy I suppose.
