A lot of the settlement activitiy IMO is due to a minority of hard-liners who get disproportionate power, due to a political system which enables small parties to hold the government hostage.
I think this is a wrong policy, and am glad that the American government is now exercising some pressure in the right direction.
But to say that "THE Israelis don't want peace" is a huge generalization - would you accept someone saying "The Palestinians don't want peace" or "The Americans don't want peace" in such broad terms?
