Every great political change bring a wave of "deals" like Jericho casino. Deals corrupt to their very core. If the change is successful - they are compensated by better things. If not - they remain a monument of failure.
Casino for a Palestinians is a symbol of Oslo agreements. They see the past now as attempt of the Westerners to turn them into slaves in the land ruled by casino owners. Same as we see the past now as a treacherous plot of Arafat and company.
The dreams of better future proved themselves false. No matter. Time to let the dead bury their dead.
