People’s
evaluations of the future chances of the peace process and the armed struggle
vary. For example, some believe that the peace process is a failure and that
only way to end the occupation is the resort to armed attacks while others
believe that armed attacks are responsible for the failure of the peace
process. What about you? Which of the following four views you support: |
|||
|
|
1) the peace process is not successful in ending
occupation and should be stopped in favor of resort to armed action |
20.7 |

2) the peace process should not be stopped because
it still might succeed, but at the same time armed action should continue |

3) the peace process has not failed and should be
given more time and in the meanwhile armed action should be stopped |
