"We are talking about two million fellow human beings here who are living under siege."

Self-imposed.

"We need to find ways out of the situation."

No Shaw - THEY need to realise that they have absolutely no right whatsoever to deny the right of Israel to exist. They need to realise that they must find a way of making peaceful co-existence work to the mutual benefit of all - They need to do that - NOBODY ELSE CAN MAKE IT WORK - a solution cannot be imposed.
