I think you need to reread what I wrote, I was saying Palestinians desires, the reason they refused the deals, was reasonable and understandable but that each offer was (and is) the best of a ####ty deal they would ever get, that each time they held out for more they lost even more.
If you offered Palestinians right now the deal they quite reasonably refused in 1967 as not being enough they would think they died and went to heaven, whatever deal they are offered by Israel at the end of this cycle of violence will both be awful and also the best deal Palestinians will get, and once again I would lay money they will refuse it and their lives, their kids and grandkids lives will be a grim violent and poor.
There is no happy ending for Palestine, they will get no more than Israel wants to give them because while their resistance is annoying to Israel, Oct the 7th was even horrific, it isn't close to bad enough to change Israels policy, Israel is utterly in charge of what happens, they get to choose how much they give, they will give something to keep the US and Europe happy but it will be minimal, this isnt fair to Gaza or the West Bank but life is never fair
