Wishful ThinkingReader comment on item: Breaking the Palestinians' Will to Fight Submitted by Barry Black (United States), Apr 10, 2017 at 12:20 I'm pretty sure that 20% of the population living in Nazi Germany and maybe more were ready to make peace----how'd that work out?! Daniel Polisar should take off the rose colored glasses and become more pragmatic. As long as the world tends to condemn Israel and certain ME countries expand their economic and military power, there is little incentive for the Palestinians to seek peace when they are only one battle from victory. As I said many times before, the Arabs have always believed that their secret weapon is "time".
