Palestinian and Israeli hopes in the peace process continue to diminish as leaders threaten one another and tensions continue to brew on the ground because of such occurrences as the demolition of homes, closure policies, and an increasingly authoritarian PA led by Yassir Arafat.
If, however, the peace process remains on the same familiar tract whereby Palestinians negotiate away their aspirations for security, positive perceptions of the peace process will diminish to be replaced by preparations for resuming an armed struggle as before the peace process.

 PEACEWatch - Middle East Conflict News Commentary
Palestinians and others who are trying to assess the prospects for peace under the new government, whatever its composition, do not have much cause for optimism.
Moreover, Israelis are not about to agree to the Palestinian version of "justice," which apparently requires the destruction of the Jewish state.
Palestinians won't stop fighting Israel and accept a state at least until they believe they have a "good deal" or "justice." There seems to be a good probability that if Palestinians ever stop fighting Israel, they will start fighting each other in earnest.
