Faceman, i don't think you can buy off the Palestinians hate towards Israel. Volvo's ? Yeah right... do you have any idea how ridiculous that sounds ? Maybe they'll be happy if they get to drive it around in Jerusalem, without any Jews left in it, but other than that, i don't think this would be very realistic.

And you can't throw money at every problem, it hasn't the same value to everyone as it has to us. Bin Laden is from a very wealthy family in Saudi Arabia, yet he chose a long time ago NOT to go drive his Volvo, but live in a cave in Afghanistan to fight the Sovjets.

You're dealing with totally different people here, who we will probably never learn to understand. We didn't understand them 1000 years ago, and we still don't understand them today.
