What could have been a Palestinian state is now a smouldering ruin because Arafat refused to make peace with Barak and the Palestinain people agreed with Arafat. Plain and simple.

Thats because the peace Barak insists on is untenable for the Palestinians. Just being offered something doesn't mean you must accept it.

Yeah, yeah, it would have been split in 3 pieces. But Pakistan was split in two, Russia is split in two (Kaliningrad), and Canada insists on denying the US a land link to Alaska. I'd rather have a homeland in 3 pieces than live under foreign occupation. But that's just me.
