Victory for the Palastinians it is simply not to loose.

Israel has won every battle but is no close, and perhaps even farther, from winning the war.
Palastinias have gone from puppets of Jordan, Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and other Arab States to near full acceptance by at least half the nation's on earth.

Some wars have no military solution. They can only be ended through negotiated peace. The problem is finding a leadership willing to negotiate in good faith.

Because the Palastinias feel they are winning, they have no desire to negotiate.
