re: #686 drcordell

I’m sorry, but do you realize you really are saying that you don’t believe the Arab states are capable of meaningful political change?

You’re acting like the Arab states will remain totalitarian, oligarchical, monarchical, and corrupt forever. Why don’t you think that the citizens of Arab nations will be able to reform their countries?

And you did not answer the other part of the question: why, if the Arab states will continually inflame the conflict no matter what Israel does, do you think that Israel holds the keys to resolving the conflict? Do you honestly think if Israel gives into concessions, that more concessions will not be demanded?
