Very interesting article. Thank you for the heartening statistics.

While it is good news that Palestinians view their violent aggression as a mistake, that does not provide the foundation for a lasting peace. Lasting peace will not come until they realize that they have been fed a pack of lies and that they have no right to seize through violence what is not rightfully theirs to begin with.
