A comment from a Palestinian:

Even after so many years of fighting, Mr. Areny said, Israel had again misunderstood the Palestinian mind.



Oh hell yes it is an incredibly simple thing to understand the Palestinian mind. The Palestinians elect a government that is bent on the destruction of Israel, and the Israelis dont understand the Palestinian mind... makes perfect sense.

"I don't like the government, but in these circumstances I will support it," said Mr. Areny, a member of Fatah, Hamas's rival. "I cannot stand with the Israelis against our people."



Your people supported Hamas for God's sake. Maybe Israel is trying to unite the Palestinian people under one banner so they CAN UNDERSTAND THEM. Maybe as cold blooded killers without this constant jibberish coming from forty different directions.

I am so glad I live in the US.
