The Barrier to Peace
(New York Daily News) Mortimer B. Zuckerman - The Palestinians won't accept any land-for-peace deal. They want the land without the peace. They want sovereignty for themselves without a reciprocal recognition of the sovereignty of the Jewish state. They want statehood without negotiation and an independent Palestine that can continue its war with Israel. Palestinians believe the West will always offer more if they are intransigent, and so their leadership radicalizes public opinion. The barrier to peace is a Palestinian Authority that still dreams of annihilating Israel, and Hamas, which is committed to its pledge to murder Jews.
