Nothing will change until Israeli policy and conduct change.
We fundamentally disagree. Only with the Jews is it universally considered kosher for three (four, five?) nations (in this case, Arab) to start a war, lose, and then complain about how the map is drawn. Win the next war, and the topographical delineations are all yours.
Until then, shut up and stop blowing up school buses and pizzerias.
Of course, every Arab and Muslim nation combined can not win a straight up war with their hated Jewish state, because Israel's freedom has allowed for the creation of the economic and intellectual capabilities (despite their dearth of oil) to steamroll the whole host of Islamic dictatorships (many of whom have copious amounts of said fluid) that stand opposed. So the latters resort to the cowardice of terrorism.
We can not negotiate with the likes of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who is but the latest and most overt personage of the Get Israel Contingent with which they (and, until recently to a lesser extent, we) have had to deal since their inception.

Not Playing Well With Others (Or Each Other) |
Ex-Palestinian Liberation Organization [PLO] President Yassar Arafat, previous dictator of Egypt Gamel El Nazer, former dictator of Syria (and father of the current thug thereof) Hafez al-Assad, the Iranian mullahs before and now, were and are all of the same Apocalyptic bent.
Ahmadinejad has repeatedly promised to destroy Israel, the nation whose "policy and conduct" is in question. After six decades of incessant assaults on its innocents from every Arabic direction, we can not fathom why Israel's "policy and conduct" remain as restrained and limited as they still are.
After witnessing sixty years of the Palestinian "peace process", one can not help but be reminded that true peace comes only with victory, certainly when the personages on one side of the alleged bargaining table are so totally willing to subvert every aspect of humanity and the rules governing nation-states.

So Many Enemies, So Little Concrete |
Islamic Jihad, Al Aqsa Martyr's Brigade, Hamas, Hizbullah, the Muslim Brotherhood and Al Qaeda are but a smattering few of the myriad Arab subterranean armed wings of the PLO, PNA (Palestinian National Assembly), Iran, Syria, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, the UAE (United Arab Emirates, of port authority fame), Libya and other nations who wish to finally arrive at the answer to Adolf Hitler's "Jewish question".
How about we prioritize addressing the “policy and conduct” of these fetid thugocracies before we get too riled up about Israel’s unilateral withdrawal from the “occupied” territories and their building a wall behind them?

How about we prioritize addressing the "policy and conduct" of these fetid thugocracies before we get too riled up about Israel's unilateral withdrawal from the "occupied" territories and their building a wall behind them (an edifice which, by the way, has cut down considerably on the number of attacks on school buses and pizzerias)?
More than half a century is more than enough. Those seeking Israeli annihilation, then global Caliphate, have desired, indicated their intention of and openly declared war on Israel (and, now, us), and we have stupidly and naively insisted on playing these idiotic reindeer games, sitting down to talk incessantly whilst the long knives are sharpened further, and dallying about the United Nations (which should be vomited out from the Earth) for an umpteenth resolution that, as usual, speaks softly and carries absolutely no stick.
War is hell, war is ugly, war is an abomination. But we are not the ones desiring it. It is being forced upon us, every day, by the slate of theocratic assassins arrayed around the world. We can continue to ignore it, at the cost of ever escalating innocent human tolls, or we can finally raze the ground of these vile ideological weeds that have been for far too long allowed to take root and spread.
Our repeated visits to the Towers of Babble have merely convinced them that we say it, but we do not mean it. Attempts to negotiate with Hitler led to "peace in our time", which was triumphantly declared and then enjoyed by Those Too Wise for War right up until the Wehrmacht was in Vienna, then Prague and Paris. "Appeasement in our time" was far more like it.
The same is true today. The Iranians seek to negotiate indefinitely, for they view it as the very same folly as did Hitler as he prepared his trek West, and will so engage as long as it takes for them to finish what they have begun. The talks will continue right up until Tel Aviv is obliterated.
The solution may have to be the full-scale military engagement we have so long singularly sought to avoid. War is undoubtedly what they seek, and it may be time that their wish be finally, fully granted.
