There will be peace. Not because they would stop trying to kill us, but simply because they won't be able to do so.

1- You seem to not care about the economical links between both people. Palestine is poor and devastated. People can't survive if they are isolated from Israel. On the Eastern border, it's only the desert (Actually, a large part of west bank is already desert).
Which is why we tried to reach an agreement. Sorry, the f*cked things up, now they'll face the consequences. Maybe Arafat can tell them where all their money is.

2- I'm sorry to say so but France and Germany didn't build their peace with a Wall between them. Such a solution will never work. It increases hatred instead of reducing it.
France and Germany built their peace on the destruction of Germany and the replacement of its leadership, in the most terrible war in history.
And I don't see how it'll increase hatred.

3- The direct effect of that Wall will be to humiliate the Fatah and to prove the Hamas was right. Which means that this wall proves the only hope for Palestinians is in terrorism. It's totally counter-productive. If you consider the Fatah as bad as the Hamas, just think about who did the Geneva plan...
The hamas gains its power from commiting suicide bombings. The wall will eliminate its ability to carry them out, and will therefore weaken it.

4- A Wall may be built as a protection, it is still a Wall, and its purpose is still to separate people.
No seriously, build your wall if you want to convince muslims from all over the world that palestinians are truely persecuted and that the guys who always told it, the fundamentalists, are right.
I don't see how the wall will cause people to feel persecuted or how it'll proove the radicals to be right. Especially when the only alternative for the wall is IDF actions. Someone needs to stop the terrorists, and the Palestinians aren't mature enough to be that someone.
