Palestinians Running Away from Peace
(Jerusalem Post) Ilan Evyatar - According to veteran Arab affairs correspondent Ehud Ya'ari, the Palestinians have decided that a statelet in the West Bank and east Jerusalem - a mini-state in their eyes - is not something for which they are willing to make the inevitable concessions they would have to make in order to reach some sort of compromise with Israel. "What the Palestinians are saying to us is that it's either runaway statehood - i.e., they get the '67 borders for free just like they got Gaza in 2005 with the Israeli withdrawal, but if it has to be part of a compromise deal with Israel resolving all outstanding issues, then no way. It's either runaway statehood or running away from statehood."
