But Abbas has his own intransigents in the form of Hamas, which has ruled Gaza since 2006, and whose commitment to violence is a mirror image of Netanyahu’s “peace through strength.” A genuine two-state solution thus requires a change of heart – and leadership – on both sides.
和平的渴望在拉马拉比在特拉维夫更迫切。但阿巴斯还面临着哈马斯的拒不让步，自2006年以来，哈马斯一直控制着加沙，其对暴力的坚持堪称内塔尼亚胡“通过强大实现和平”理念的镜像。因此，真正的两国方案需要双方观念和领导层的改变。
