    I don’t think I made any claim like that. I’m saying the Palestinian side has rejected all proposals - rightly or otherwise. Multiple wars have been lost, and they have no leverage other than terror. If they want peace, they have to choose it.

    Honestly, I think the situation is so beyond toxic and arguing right or wrong is pointless. If the Palestinians had the power to enforce their will, they would. I don’t expect anything else from Israel.

      Right, thanks, but I think most if not all peace negotiations were giving Palestinians impossible demands with Israel being the biggest winner. If it’s anyone sabotaging the peace negotiations, it has always been Israel acting like an internet troll.

      So yes, if Israel were to negotiate like a troll again, it won’t work. So instead of shifting the focus on the Palestinians, it’s Israel that needs a peace agreement that is reasonable and where they make concessions.
