On the face of it, that makes sense. In reality, none at all. Because all these conditions are completely one-sided:
1. The Palestinians must recognise the right of Israel to exist (without defining its borders, of course), but the Israeli government is not required to recognise the right of a Palestinian state to exist at all.
2. The Palestinians must put an end to “terrorism”, but the Israeli government is not required to stop its military operations in the Palestinian territories and stop the building of settlements. The “roadmap” does indeed say so, but that has been completely ignored by everybody, including the Americans.
3. The Palestinians must undertake to fulfil the agreements, but no such undertaking is required from the Israeli government, which has broken almost all provision of the Oslo agreement. Among others: the opening of the “safe passages” between Gaza and the West Bank, the carrying out of the third “redeployment” (withdrawal from Palestinian territories), the treatment of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip as one single territory, etc.
