CarolC, I am afraid that Palestine has been lost to the Palestinians except for a few bits of confined land, much of it unproductive. The means of providing an effective government, infrastructure and an effective economy, have been removed. Many Palestinians suffer in refugee camps (ghettos) without hope.
The object of the Zionists, backed by U. S. Canadian and European Zionist support and money, and the seeming acquisence of the U. S. and Canadian governments is to destroy the Palestinians as a nation. The noose becomes tighter with each passing year. Not even the golden dome in Jerusalem will remain to them.

A people can't survive under the present conditions. The growth of Hamas and similar groups is the result of despair and anger engendered by the situation.
