Why America’s Point Man On China Is Running Into a Wall

How did this change your opinion of the Palestinian cause?
Over those three years of being completely immersed in the conflict it would be a bit pathetic if an individual experience were to profoundly reorder your understanding of the dynamics. The one thing that I had always suspected would happen as the occupation grinds on is a further radicalization of the Palestinians, the emergence of a jihadi element—and those were exactly the people who took me.

Is there hope for peace?
Even if Israel were to withdraw from every inch of the West Bank and Gaza, that would leave the Palestinians with just 22 percent of the land between the River Jordan and the Mediterranean Sea. Obviously, selling that to the Palestinian people is difficult.
