The Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank live in poverty because their leaders, from Yasser Arafat to Mahmoud Abbas and others, live high on the hog while their people suffer.
Billions of international aid dollars have been diverted from needy Palestinians and line the pockets of these "leaders," or are turned into missiles, guns and bombs for attacks on Israeli citizens in the name of Allah.
Under Clinton, Israel offered everything that the Palestinians wanted, except for dividing Jerusalem between the two states. This was the "reason" that the most recent intifada was declared. Ridiculous.
More ridiculous is the fact that the US is now joining forces with the UN to try and pressure Israel to join the Non-Proliferation Treaty, while Iran gets a pass. The Obama administration has drawn a line in the sand and Israel knows it must defend itself, perhaps without US support. This is sad.
As Golda Meir wisely once said, "Peace will come when the Arabs will love their children more than they hate us."

No, Yasser - Golda did not say "love the Ayatollas more than they hate us..."
