I think you are terribly underestimating Saids influence Burbank, but I'll refrain to answering the above queries which you suggest I've shirked in the past:
"My question, and I've posed it before, is do you see any point in attempts at an Israeli/Palestinian peace process?"
Yes.
"If yes, who do you propose the Israeli's engage with? What camp, what stripe, which person?"
There is no Palestinian Camp , stripe or person the Israelis can engage with whom will bring about a peaceful accord.
"What do you propose Israel do?"
Israel should do whatever she wants as a sovereign nation. I'm a citizen of the United States, and as such, the entire world may turn itself into a radioactive wasteland as far as I'm concerned, and so long it does not endanger a single US citizen in doing so, I couldn't possibly care less. What should the US do? Pragmatically, nothing. It is not out business, and we should never have endeavoured to make it so, but that is not a realistic answer because we have involved ourselves and therefore must do something. What should we do, well. . .Personally, I think the best outlined plan to date can be found at the URL below:
