There(Isreal) actions have evrey bit to do with their neighbors actions. Isreal has been thrust into War 6 times since their recreation in 1948. They(Isreal and Palestine) are in an ongoing war to survive. The Palestinian way is alot more agressive. They have settled down though and are now talking serious peace with each other.
Hezbollah is the ball breaker. They attack Isreal constantly and brings Isreals (*)(*)(*)(*) to a broil. So hezbollah can cry wolf at evrey one else to get aid and say they were attacked first. Most of those guns Hezbollah gets comes from the U.N. Until hezbollah is taken down there will not be any peace in the Middle east.

This is an example of someone that paints a Black and White picture of the Middle East, where Israel is just defending itself and the Arabs are the instigators.
Your proposal for peace is ludicrous , you can't simply ask just one side to "put down their weapons". Jeez, haven't you ever watched a Shoot 'em up before, no one ever wants to give up first.
You have to have a solution that would appease to both sides.

Nonsense. It is not a "shoot 'em up" or else Israel would have made mincemeat of the Palestinians in short order. If Israel wanted to simply 'win' the confrontation and get it over with, she could have done it long ago.
In fact, Israel has largely abided by the Oslo agreements (unlike the Palestinians), and has made numerous overtures for peace. In fact the Wall is an example of Israel's willingness to try to use
peaceful means to solve this problem. It is a problem caused by one side's intransigence, and that side is not Israel.
It is clear you did not watch the video. The video that halla put up shows the extent of the problem and why the fault does not lie with Israel!
