So let's suppose that the Palestineans were to stop attacking Israel. Would you then support their independence? And if so, what sort of solution would you support?

Or is this the case of "If the slaves stopped misbehaving, then the owner would not beat them and they could live in peace." - meaning it doesn't matter how they act, no independence no matter what. What is your opinion on that issue?
