Israel's problem, among others, is that it cannot reach a settlement with Palestinians, and so a state of something like war persists.

2. Its deplorable that these fucking Israelis have been so obstructionist to a negotiated settlement for so long. Especially given that its their presence in the Middle east and their aggressive actions have caused all of the problems. Meanwhile the settlement-happy Arabs, they of that religion of peace and tolerance, continue to offer the unilateral olive branch, only to get it smacked down by the facist likes of Sharon. One can only hope that an internationalist, like future Pres. JFKerry, can build on the great efforts that former Pres. Clinton made to secure an Arab peace and force the Israelis to be reasonable and give up their security zone so the Arabs can have thqt more effective launching pad to drive the Israelis into the sea, as has been their stated goal. A much easier, cleaner resolution of the problem with finality.
Apropos of that, am I the only person who thinks that Arafat should receive a Lifetime Acheivement Award from the Nobel Committee?
