Israeli's are funny. What she forgets is there are a lot of people like Ziggy stuck in 1993 who didn't get the supposedly clear message a HAMAS victory sends. Israeli's use that line of positive thinking for everything... "now we can REALLY defend ourselves"...and it never happens. They just slowly make more concenssions.
Israel doesn't want to wipe out Palestinians. A good portion of the country have Palestinian friends, or coworkers. You just have to remember that for years, the Pro-Israel contigent has been claiming Palestinians don't want peace, they want genocide against Jews.... and so now there's less of a charade left.
There ARE Palestinians who want peace...but they were never in the PA government, and will never come from any of the PLO derivative organizations.
It's stories like this that are truly horrifying.
