Maybe if the Arabs had not started a war to destroy Israel and commit genocide on the Jews they would not be in their current mess. They are not going to get more than Barak offered and probably will have to settle for less, or never have a state.

But I don’t believe the Palis actually want a state of their own. They want to kill Jews. What happens after that, whatever thug tyrant will rule them, is of little concern. They will settle for any tyranny, so long as the tyrant enables them to kill Jews.

In other words the Palestinians as represented by their ‘moderate’ political leader, considers that a compromise.” Few governments lightly acquiesce to signing away large parts of what they consider to be their national territory.
