Rightardia comment: Israel is such a hypocritical country. It has had nuclear weapons for years but doesn't want any Arab adversaries to have parity with it. Israel is estimated to have at least 60 nuclear weapons.
In the case of Palestine, Israel is offering nothing that would would bring Palestine to the table. The US needs to cut foreign and military aid to Israel. This is the only way to get the attention of hard-liners like Benjamin Netanyahu.
Israel's deputy foreign minister, Danny Ayalon, has stated the there is some imaginery international policy that "Iran is forbidden to go nuclear, period." Israel is presently ignoring more than 60 UN resolutions and the recent Goldstone report that charges Israel with war crimes.

JERUSALEM: Israel's military chief said Monday that all options remain "on the table" in dealing with Iran's nuclear program.
Lt. Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi's comments came a day after Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said Shimon Peres assured him Israel was not planning to attack Iran's nuclear facilities.
Speaking to Army Radio, Ashkenazi said the best way to deal with the Iranian nuclear threat was through sanctions against it. But he said Israel was preparing for every option to make sure Iran did not go nuclear.
"The possibility of Iran becoming a nuclear power is a threat not only to the state of Israel, but for the Middle East and the entire free world," he said. "Israel has the right to defend itself, and all the options are on the table."

Ashkenazi, who rarely gives interviews, essentially repeated Israel's formal position that Iran's nuclear ambitions should ideally be thwarted by diplomatic pressure, but a military option should not be discarded.
On Sunday, in an interview with CNN television, Medvedev indicated that Israeli President Shimon Peres assured him Israel would not launch a strike against Iranian nuclear facilities. It was unclear if he was also referring to secret talks in Moscow by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu this month.
Israel's deputy foreign minister, Danny Ayalon, responded Monday, saying that the Russian president may have misunderstand or misinterpreted Peres.
"In any event, he [Shimon Peres] is certainly not authorized to speak for us, and there is no change whatsoever in Israel's policy," Ayalon told Army Radio. "President Medvedev, with all due respect, will not decide what Israel's policy is ... and this is not just Israeli policy, but the international policy - that Iran is forbidden to go nuclear, period."
Russia has cultivated close cooperation with Iran, including building the Bushehr nuclear power plant. But Russia has shown irritation with Iran's failure to cooperate with the International Atomic Energy Agency as it seeks to determine if Iran is pursuing nuclear arms.
