We'll have to agree to disagree. If I make a prediction that the sun will
rise tomorrow in the east, I don't think that can be questioned by any
rational person (even though it's a prediction). Similarly, my prediction
that the Palestinians* will eventually use violenece in anattempt to gain
additional land is even more likely than the prediction the sun will rise
tomorrow in the east, so it too should not be subject to being questioned.

I am not going to give a history report on demand. If you are legitimtely
interested in the history of the region, there are plenty of resources at
your disposal. You can even research the subject from different websites
representing both sides of the conflict. If, as I suspect, you are
interested in what I know about the region, then we go back to my "I just
ain't going to get into this discussion again" response.

I don't mean to be rude... On the contrary; I am trying to withdraw from
this thread before anyone (including especially myself) gets nasty :-)
