Frankenthal would not have honored Oslo if he were a Palestinian

[IMRA: Yitzchak Frankenthal is the chair of the Bereaved Families Forum, a group of Israeli and Palestinians who lost a family member during the course of Oslo (for example, the Palestinian parents of a suicide bomber and the Israeli parents of the victims) who all agree that Israel should make concessions for peace. The question of if the Palestinians should also make concessions for peace has never been addressed by the group. ........]

"Had I myself been born into the political and ethical chaos that is the
Palestinians' daily reality, I would certainly have tried to kill and hurt the occupier; had I not, I would have betrayed my essence as a free man."

[Extract from a speech given by Yitzchak Frankenthal, Chair of the Bereaved Families Forum, outside of the Prime Minister's residence on July 27, 2002.]

Update: Imshin has another story in a similar vein.
