As to 'hard sacrifices' and “relinquishing viewpoints,” we see that Israel has given up certain parts of its historical claims; it has given up control of Bethlehem, Hebron, Shechem (Nablus), Jericho, and parts of the Gaza Strip, which are part of Biblical Israel and claimed by most Israelis.
Israel has negotiated with the PLO and its leader, Yasser Arafat, recognized as terrorists, and not Israel's choice as negotiators, and has even given it the control of these important historical, and emotionally laden, cities.
This is a victory for the terrorists and terrorism, as the P.A. holds the same positions it held ten years ago, as well as the areas already conceded to it.
