That Glazov has a PhD in history should not deceive us. The article Troll has linked too isn't meant as a piece of serious research but as a piece of one-sided propaganda. I have read similar pieces from the other side and what amazes me most is that close to all of the facts mentioned are correct (as far as I can tell) but that the tales are vastly different.

Both sides don't usually work with lies but with omissions. If you read about the same event from different sources you find completely different things mentioned. The only thing both parties agree is that the UN resolution # ... should be respected and isn't by the other side. The number of the resolution they want the focus the attention on, however, differs.

Read on the sites Troll has linked to and on the sites of the MidEastChamber I have linked to above and you'll realise that the time for peaceful talks has not come yet as sad as this may be. The ability or the will to see the world with the eyes of the opponent (just for the sake of understanding) is still completely missing.

In Northern Ireland, they are much further in that respect.

I don't think that Sharon's policy is criminal but I think it is wrong, completely wrong (if that sounds familiar to you, I'm merely paraphrasing Talleyrand).
