The sticking point was the "right of return."  If Israel gave in on this, it
would cease to exist as a state where Jews were safe.  Should Palestinians
have the right to become citizens of Israel at will?  BTW, the present
proposal has the "right of return" in it.  Do you think that Israel has to
accept the right of Palestinains to make Israel an Arab state?
