#1 I have not seen the film, but if the TV clips are any indication, and these were the only 2 choices, I suppose it is understandable.

#2 What I've read elsewhere on these pages is that Hamas is willing to have a hudna, a temporary cease fire to allow Muslim forces to regroup and rearm against an enemy, but not to give up plans for the conquest of the entirety of the land between the Jordan River and the Meditteranean, between Syrian and Lebanon to the north and Egypt to the south, and the deaths of all the Jews of Israel. *shrug* That was Arafat's plan, too, and remains the of Abbas, although Abbas would prefer to accomplish that by wieght of world opinion and population pressure, rather than dirtying his hands with weapons and Jewish blood. I only hope Olmert continues to work toward defensible borders behind the security fence, to enable the IDF to fight, unencumbered, the war the Palestinians insist on waging.

#3 This proposal isn't even worth thinking about.

However, Ehud Olmert said Israel would be prepared to give up parts of the West Bank where most Palestinians were living.

No more land for peace. The Gaza settlements have been vacated, yet what is there to show for it?
