Because the Palestinians are not one-minded.
Hamas, for instance, has publically declared their desire to not end their
fight until Israel is no longer. Peace is dangerous when one side's idea of it
is the elimination of the other side.
When I see Palestinians resist their own who sabotage their efforts for peace
(ie Hamas) will I become hopeful.
