Its a technique of extremists to mock moderates for seeking compromise (sometimes though go a bit further and kill them as with Rabin). Yet without any compromise there's no way forward, is there? We're in the same place we've been for ever.
And it wasn't exactly one side "bending over" unconditionally either. Concessions were needed on both sides and eventually the talks failed. The PA ought to be praised for making an effort. Unless you would prefer to try it again the Hamas way, as I'm sure a lot of armchair Jihadis in the west would. But they aren't the ones doing the suffering are they?
