7. I would suggest
we try not to enter the question of which people has suffered more, as I am sure we can both summon some extraordinarily fantastic writers to defend our case on whether it is better to be a Palistinean or an Israeli who walks each day out of his house not knowing if he was safer from people who he had no problem with in there, or on the street, or in the car, does he fight an unnamed enemy with whom he has never met, nor will he probably.

But that wasn't ym main point, either. He claimed that Israelis were launching propoganda by virtue at looking at what the leaders said. If so, I merely mentioned that perhaps one might want to look at that which some other people have said, notably some famed Palistinean leaders.

Everybody, including Sharon, by the way, but that's another issue, agrees that the settlers eventually have to go. As to he question of whether they should have astate or not, is up to the Palistineans and the other forces in the world.

I have another question for you. Some have guessed that Sharon's plan is to unilaterally retreat from everything and pull back behind the Security Fence. He would effectively tell the Palistineans to do whatever they want, and Israel will never enter a Palistinean city (unless, of course, if war were declared). The complaints of the Palistineans and of yours would seem to be answered. Would you be in favor of such a plan?
