Thanks for speaking simple common sense about a complicated (sort of) issue. This conflict has reached a point where many just don't care any more. I think many palestianins must feel this way. So many years of violence and what have they gained for all the blood shed. land is no substitute for lifes simple neccessities, Freedom,employment, basic human rights,security, a chance for your children.

I have never been to Israel, but i can imagine the difference in the the standard of living between the Israelis and the Palestinians must be enormous. Israel needs to build the wall and close off the terrorist problem,and be prepared to defend itself with all resources quickly and decisively.
