(Ynet News) Kobi Michael - Many explanations have been offered for the Palestinian unwillingness to utilize the unilateral disengagement in order to advance its supreme interest, that is, the establishment of an independent state (even if its borders are temporary, as is the case with Israel itself). The Palestinian fright when it comes to taking responsibility and the inability to take advantage of political opportunities to promote national interests lead to the perpetuation of a wholly ineffective strategy, narrowed down to improving the efforts to lay the blame on Israel. It is time for the Palestinians to separate from the Israelis and act for the establishment of a Palestinian state, organize the activity of political institutions, improve the daily lives of residents, and ensure a state monopoly on the use of military power. Israel will not be waiting for the Palestinians, and rightfully so. It will not condition its moves on Palestinian good will. The writer is a fellow at the Jerusalem Institute for Israel Studies and a lecturer at Hebrew University and Tel Aviv University. 2005-05-30 00:00:00Full Article
