So, kiss my ass


Palestinan Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas was in Cuba the other day, and presented his ‘peace’ plan:

'An Israeli withdrawal from Palestine, the Syrian Golan Heights, and the Lebanese territories is a top priority, he said.
'Once that is achieved, Israel will enjoy normal relations with all Arab and Islamic countries'.
He added, 'We tell Israel that if they withdraw from the Palestinian territories, all Arab and Islamic countries will be able to normalize relations with you'.
Abbas then explained that the alternative to such a withdrawal would be terrorism, tension, and violence, which he insisted is not what Palestinians want for their people and region.
An aside: the 'Lebanese territory' he refers to is the Shabaa Farms area, a tiny piece of land -8 sq. mi.- with no strategic importance, determined by the UN to be part of the Golan Heights but claimed by Hezbollah and (apparently) the PA to be Lebanese.
It is used as a pretext for aggression by Hezbollah, which thereby claims that Israel is still 'occupying' Lebanon.
So here’s the context: Israel is almost surrounded by hostile states and non-state terrorist militias which have been sporadically starting wars and killing Israelis since there was an Israel.
And here’s the deal: if Israel will give up the strategic depth which prevented it from being overrun in 1973 and allow the creation of another hostile state to the east to complete its encirclement, then all the Arab states will suddenly give up their oft-repeated desire to end the Jewish state.
But if not — well, don’t say I didn’t warn you, but you know how hard it is to control those extremists!

Bueno, en esos términos, ante lo demencial de la propuesta, cualquiera advierte que toda negociación con los árabes palestinos es absolutamente imposible.

Cuando un pueblo tiene la cultura de la imposición y el sometimiento, cualquier tipo de negociación al estilo occidental será visto como una debilidad y aprovechado para seguir aumentando la presión.

No tiene sentido medirlos con nuestros mismos parámetros, ése es el gran error conceptual que se le escapa a occidente.
