Consider this example: In mathematics, if you owe three people $10, then you are negative $30 (3 X -10 = $-30). Let's say that you owe the 3 people $10,000 each. That's where the real power lays.
If the lender becomes desperate for cash and you show an inability or reluctance to pay then they will try and bargain with you to recover even a portion of the debt. This puts you in control of them and the situation, which means that 3 X 10,000 does not necessarily equal 30,000. If each lender is willing to settle for 50% then you are $15,000 in front.
I see Israel as being the lender to the Palarabs. She offers more and more and seems willing to settle for less and less just to obtain the carrot of peace.
