The PLO has publicly been in favor of some sort of two-state deal with Israel since 1976, all of which Israel rejected out of hand till Oslo, for obvious reasons. Indeed, it was the fear of Palestinian moderation that led to Israel's dalliance with the precursors to Hamas, forthright rejectionists who openly wanted, and still want, to shove the Jews into the sea. Now *that's* something Sharon and Co. can understand.
