For any side of conflict which is playing zero-sum, there can be no negotiations which are beneficial to both. Only one side has to commit to this strategy to condemn the other side to this path. Authoritarianism is an awful method of government which often ensures the minimum amount of people necessary will contribute to a solution for that nation which will benefit only the most privileged. All these countries mentioned are prime examples, and Israel is not exempt from criticism given Bibi's actions over the past few years.
