"... Israeli government officials say a compromise being discussed could see Israel freeze building except for 2,500 units currently under construction. They spoke on condition of anonymity because details ofthe talks between Israel and the U.S. are secret. However, Netanyahu's foreign minister, Avigdor Lieberman, told reporters Sunday that he sees no chance of peace."In the 16 years since the Oslo Accords, we haven't managed to bring peace to the region, and I'm willing to bet that there won't be peace in another 16 years, either. Certainly not on the basis of the two-state solution," Lieberman said..."(I hate to agree with Lieberman!)

I Hate to agree with Lieberman as well!
What I'd be even more interested to hear is what he thinks the situation will be like for Israel in 16 years without a two state solution and with Palestinians in the majority in a democratic and Jewish state.
"The Israeli leadership’s demographically driven thinking about the conflict was explained by Avi Primor, vice-president of Tel Aviv University, in September 2002.
He noted that Sharon and his generation of military generals had always harboured an especial
fondness for South Africa’s solution to its own demographic problems: the system of fictitious black homelands known as Bantustans.
In these homelands, termed “independent states” by white South Africans, the country’s black population was supposed to exercise its political and civil rights."
