There was no reason so far to believe that "Palestinian resistance" will end if Israel leaves the occupied territories. In fact these territories were occupied during an attempt by Arabic population to destroy Israel - which didn't include West Bank back then.

I guarantee that Palestinian resistance won't stop if Israel maintains its occupation.

  • Yeah, but since it won't stop otherwise either, it's better for Israel to maintain stronger military position, which occupation provides, rather than making unilateral gestures in the faint hope for peace.

    • What you're saying is that millions of human beings should be subjected to brutal military occupation indefinitely, because their oppressors are afraid for their own safety, should they give up control.
