9. If Israel would relinquish their WB and Jerusalem settlements, a 2-state solution could be possible. |

But the rate things are going, that doesn't appear likely. More likely is engagement in a meaningless "process" designed to drag out the status quo.
The status quo might be just fine and dandy for Israelis, but it's not for palestinians. And as long as pro-Israeli folks allow the meaningless process to stagnate forward, you're allowing the status quo to fester.
It's one thing if you say, tough crap: my vested interest is Israel. But for someone like yourself who clearly is concerned about both sides, I don't quite get how you can straddle the middle.
Surely you recognize that the status quo is simply not tenable. Not for moral people, anyway.
