Take note of the breach of the border agreed on by the UN. Slowly but surely, the palestinians are being pushed out of their land.
A look back into the past:
In the year 1993, we saw the Oslo Accords proposed that Israel would return the palestinians 22% of their homeland- ie the West Bank and Gaza. This of course did not follow through and it was not until the year 2000 that the palestinians were presented another 'offer.' This time the proposer of the deal, Ehud Barack, the then PM. The Palestinians were offered 80% of the occupied territores of Gaza and the West bank.Unfortunatly, they were to recieve only a fraction of this offer with the 'security barrier' being constructed across the West Bank. By this, Ariel Sharon had:
"devised a miserly take-it-or-leave-it deal: the Palestinians can have a state on 42% of the 80% of the 22% of the 100% of their original homeland."
