The Palestinian extremists have been doing that, most definitely NOT the government, Yasser Arafat pretty much gave in to every demand there was in order to try and protect his people.

Arafat tried his best to form a deal and prevent problems, but the Israeli government were the ones who refused to work towards any solution.

The Israelis just stole a large portion of Palestine and claimed it as their own, with the help of the UN (I think it was the UN), I'm sure if a religion claiming to be a race of people came along and just stole a portion of the town where you live, you'd be just deliriously happy, wouldn't you?

Also, there's the fact that the Palestinians are denied an army, when the Israelis have tanks, large quantities of troops, helicopters and fighter planes, and all the Palestinians have are sticks and rocks, and the ever depressing suicide bomber.

Few suicide bombers actually ARE children, but the entire intent of the bombers was to force Israelis out of what wasn't their country, and FINALLY at last the Israelis have given in and are moving out of the Gaza strip, which should see an end to most, if not all hostility.

I'm not saying suicide bombing is correct, but to an extremist in a relatively impotent country, it's all they have left in order to try and make a point.
