I do respect what you are saying. But you misunderstood what I am saying.
The Peace Process calls for the creation of a state called Palestine which is made of Gaza strip and West Bank. I am not saying that the Israeli cease to exist but give them the land ceased in 1967 to create their own country.
And yet you say they cannot agree to that without right of return. Perhaps I am misunderstanding, but right of return means people currently in Judea and Somaria and Gaza or wherever they may be return to Israel proper, correct? If that's correct then what the peace process calls for as you describe above has been offered to the Palestinians. You explained to me that it was rejected on the issue of right of return. I am very confused.
As for the average Pal living in Israel, you are saying they have a better standard of living than anyone in the ME.
No, I'm saying I've heard that to be the case. If it's not so then it's not so. <shrug>
Why don't you look a bit further and tell me why the settlers are not going to leave the illegal settlements that belong to the Pals. Don't they want all of the land?
The settler's can want whatever they want, they aren't making the decisions. They are being forced to leave Gaza if I'm not mistaken. If Judea and Somaria and Gaza become a Palestinian state then the settlers will choose between leaving or living in Palestine under Palestinian rule. What's the big deal, there are over a million Arabs in Israel, will they all be forced to move to Palestine when a state is formed? I doubt it. Why are a few Jewish settlers in Palestine so offensive?
Either way, the issue of the settler's has no bearing on the original point, that the PA doesn't care about a state, except as a step towards the annihlation of Israel. Just because there are zionists who are equally aggressive and misguided doesn't change that.
