When exactly did Egypt re-conquer Sinai peninsula? oh, right, we agreed to return it to the last centimeter to egypt as part of the peace agreements. interesting.

there are two very wrong things with the arab peace initiative:
(A) it is a saudi creation/initiative, not a palestinian one. in particular hamas does not support it and will not accept it. the saudis are promising something they simply cannot deliver. they know it, we know it.
(B) but "just to be on the safe side", syria sabotaged it, with changes to the 'right of return' clauses and tying it with the golan heights issue.
the ambiguity of this clause is the root of all evil, so to speak. someone is playing a cruel game on palestinian refugees, leading them to what will be eventually a civil war which would make the lebanese one pale in comparison. that's not the way to guarantee them a safe and happy life after all the abuse they've taken, from israel and arab countries alike.
now is not a good time to discuss these things, try to keep that in mind though when things calm down.
