Settlements convince Palestinians

Reader comment on item: Peace Process or War Process?

Submitted by Joakim Förars (Finland), Sep 25, 2009 at 20:13

One of the most powerful ways to teach Palestinians the lesson that they can't win is to vastly expand the number of settlements. A hawkish policy can be undone by irresponsible politicians when political winds change, but a sufficient number of Jews living in Judea, Samaria and Gaza will go a long way in burying the risk for territorial surrender.
