Hi Wilf,
I don't think I characterized it as either "insightful" or hopeful" . And, yes I agree, it is a 101 class. What I was hoping to find, and it doesn't really show up in the main article Rex linked to unfortunately, was if they had expanded it significantly beyond the Israeli-Palestinian group. Anyway, I've emailed Scott to see if they have done any more elaboration on it.
Really good points, as is Rex's on not being able to come up with an agreeable narrative.
As an historical note, there are some interesting examples of this type of negotiation apparent in the Treaty of Westphalia (which is where I was hoping they had taken it) and other treaties (e.g. Quebec, 1760).
