Metaphors and synecdoche distract and entertain- but symbolic suggestions and game theories will only perpetuate the Israel/Palestine conflict.

FULLY respecting universal basic human rights and the rule of fair and just laws is the first real step towards establishing a just and lasting peace.

Ending the occupation and the conflict needs to be the point.... "Like people everywhere, Palestinians simply deserve a country where they can be first-class citizens. They have taken upon themselves the responsibility of building the institutions, and the state, of Palestine, the indispensable state for peace." Ziad Asali http://www.americantaskforce.org...
