CaroC, I repeat and rephrase this question:
If Isreal were to withdraw to its pre 1967 borders is Hamas prepared to live in peace with the Jewish state? Would the rest of the Middle East do likewise? Yes BB that would mean giving up control of Jerusalem but perhaps in peace that city would be open to people of all faiths. I am not a strong believer of religious dogma and wish that could be cast aside but that perhaps won't happen for many years.
