Reply #280: What you aren't seeing is that Bibi's demands would GUARANTEE

[Ken Burch]

that said shit would hit said fan.

It simply isn't reasonable to expect a Palestinian leadership to accept terms that say "the war was all Palestine's fault, and so, in this relationship, Israel will have all the power and Palestine will have to live at Israel's mercy".

It might be different if Bibi were at least to say..."Look, we'll review this every two years or so. If we see good behavior, will pull more and more troops back. And if anything at all improves, we'll let Palestine have an international airport so that people can go into and out of the country without having to get Israel or Egypt's approval for it."

But Bibi's proposal isn't even all stick, no carrot-it's all TRUNCHEON, no carrot. He gives Palestinians no stake in trying to be responsible, no possible benefits. it's "take these crumbs and like it".

Deep down, even Bibi has to know he's asking way too much.
