The way I see it, this shows that at least at the time, Israel will go to quite some length to sue for peace. My guess is that the Israelis are as sick and tired of this crap as the Palestinians are. The Palestinians want a country to call their own. Yet they have never made the effort that Egypt has made. Why? If the Palestinians would stand down and say, ok, if we agree to stop this and lets say in two years no one dies, no one gets blown up … can we have our land? I am guessing the response would be yes, you can. Egypt did it, why not the Palestinians? Could it be that the ones doing the fighting do not really want peace? Could it be that they want Israel gone and this has nothing to do with a Palestinian home land? The blue print has been there for close to 30 years but no one has tried to use it.

Those in charge on the PLO side in my opinion do not want peace. War is their job and their hobby.
