All pathways to peace will need to go through Washington and Beijing.

    One third is a small minority as political support goes.

      Not really, especially considering it’s a country with no free media.

        A critical mass is needed for major political changes.

        For a referendum that’s 50%+1, but for organic political changes I’ve seen, like when my country legalised abortion or gay marriage or stopped The Troubles, you need a broad consensus.

        It’s hard to quantify a broad consensus, but it’s certainly not 2 opponents to each proponent.

            Ok, your BBC link has persuaded me to do a 180° on my opinion
