We could argue this endlessly (which I don't intend to do), but in my
view Emily is exactly correct. Islam will not rest until Israel is
eradicated. There can be no peace deals. The Palestinians will not
accept a peace settlement, but if they did, they would not honor it.
From the Islamic perspective Israel is Muslim land, and will continue
to be Muslim land for all eternity.
Here is a transcript of an interview with Dennis Ross who was present
in the Oval Office when Bill Clinton made his peace offer on behalf of
Israel. Ross explains in detail what was offered.

As I've said, at one time I was rabidly anti-Israel -- the product of
exposure to Palestinian propaganda (I am a reader) without listening
to the Israeli side. I was invited to the Jordanian embassy for a
national celebration, and the Israeli embassy got so sick of my
letters that they literally returned them unopened. Then I took an
interest in at least listening to the Israeli perspective, and I
gradually came to realize that I had been very wrong. Put aside your
politics and look at this objectively. Emily is being completely
rational. You are the one with a problem.
