K: As long as we don't call it peace I think it can go quite a distance. B: Yea. Well that gets theological with the Israelis. K: That's right. But I think the Israelis are so. if the Israelis had any sense they would offer the 67 porters to Egypt. And get them out of the war, because for that they could get anything.

They will do much better the other way around and their own does know that but, but. K: They would do a lot better the other way around because whether they get those 10 or 15 miles. . makes no difference in history. B: None.
