Not an objective representation by any means of the peace talks. Israel receives
lump sum annual US tax payer payments to the tune of $3-4 BILLION. Hamas,
although not a good rep for its citizens, was democratically elected. Think David
& Goliath. Israel is the much stronger party (ineffective home made rockets v.
Fighter jets and tanks) & has a duty to make the right moral decisions to finally
live in peace by setting boarders, instead of continuing to build on disputed land.

Sadly, the oppressed have become the oppressor and the eyes of the world are
wide open.
