edit:
I'll try to get this thread back on track -
Didn't Israel offer a pretty good deal back in 2001? A Palestinian state including the West Bank and Gaza I think it was. I'm not sure where Jerusalem was in the deal. Anyone remember anything about this deal and why they didn't take it :S?
Camp David Accord. I think it was actually in 2000 because it was Clinton who presided over it.
Arafat ended up refusing Sharon's offer because he thought he could milk more out of him, and because I think Jerusalem and the immediate surroundings were still to be controlled by the Israelis.
So then Israel got all shitty with him and his Fatah party and started propping up his opposition - Hamas.
I bet Fatah and Israel would both give anything now to get a repeated chance.
