There won’t be any long peace unless far right extremists on both sides make concessions and allow something to be brokered. That is possible and that’s what Hain was saying yesterday. Where there’s a will there’s a way, not without. I don’t subscribe to your ‘no matter what’ outlook. Bleak, IMO. There are equally plenty of Israeli’s in positions of power and influence that will continue to hate Palestinians and wish to get rid. You can say ‘claim to be the victims of Israeli aggression’, but whether you like it or not, they are. That’s indisputable, not a mere claim.
