14. Edward Said is long dead
and this was written before Hamas took over Gaza, murdering Fatah members by throwing them off buildings, before they endorsed or carried out daily rocket fire on the people of southern Israel, before the terrorist government of Hamas put killing Israelis over their own humanitarian needs (why else would they blow up their own fuel supply or their own aid trucks?).

The landscape has changed for the Palestinans, since Said wrote this article, and the change is for the worse. Life in 2000 was a lot better for them than it is in 2008. They ought to look at the facts on the ground.
