"It's all about what the Palestinians can do for themselves independent of what Israel does."
Except, of course, they can't.
Egypt's an American client state: they are not going to take that wall down in Gaza.
Gaza's not spending billions in aid on sewage treatment because it's going toward, ummmm, food.
Palestinians - or at least a lot of them - don't want to become citizens in other countries because they're _refugees_ and the children of refugees, and they have this silly desire to go back to their homeland. Like, you know, Jews do.
Where is your proof that Gazans are using aid money to buy weapons?
And so on?
And, as I said, what's Israel supposed to do in all of this?
As for "As I said above, no one actually cares about the Palestinians..." - speak for yourself.
