Not only are you wrong, David, but you are so wrong as to be incredulous. With Palestinian terror rockets raining down on Israeli civilians and 200,000 kids being kept home from school again tomorrow, you have the audacity to state: "The PA has cracked down on terrorism, and very well too! " No, David. The PA is doing a terrible job at cracking down on terrorism, and there are dead Israelis to prove it. So if Abbas can't crack down on terrorism, then what is he doing? Is he governing the Palestinian territories? Of course not! He couldn't if he tried. And so there is nothing to negotiate since Abbas does not represent the Palestinians. We are not going to negotiate a 3-state solution, which is what the situation is right now. The Palestinians are not cracking down on terrorism. The Palestinians are not even governing themselves. And if believe that Hamas is the "democratically elected representatives of the Palestinian people" then there truly is nothing to negotiate, since Hamas leaders have explicitly rejected both peace talks and peace with Israel. Wake up David. The only fools are those living abroad who preach to the people on the ground 10000 miles from San Francisco.

the extremist ultra -right government of israel a serial peace refuser, war mongering gang/ netanyahu & lieberman turn israel into a paria state. and endanger our very existence.

Three cheers for Avigdor Lieberman. He is afraid of nobody. Israel, if you want peace from the sand-dwellers, make Lieberman your next President. That guy would face a Lion. He is afraid of nobody. Make him President and watch the muslims 'shlotter' in their boots!
