It is the Palestinians themselves, not the Israelis, who must find the path to peace in the Middle East.
Note: I don't blame the Middle Eastern nations. They have been promised this land since World War 1. And the European nations did not fulfill their promise. No wonder they hate us so zealously today. This very land is very highly prized by religions everywhere...

If Palestinian peace is not achieved, all Middle East nations will descend into chaos and violence. - it corresponds to the second part of my sentence
and this statement is not implied: All the nations of the Middle East look to Palestine and its leaders for guidance
