Is Real Peace in Palestine Even Possible?

[georgephillip]

Stop fucking lying you son of bitch.

Under UN 181 which Jews accepted and Arabs rejected the Jews were entitled to 55% of the land of Mandate Palestine. After the '48 war, Jews acquired about 60% of the proposed Arab state. After the '67 bloodletting Jews tripled the size of their territorial holdings while subjugating another million Arabs to Jewish law. Apparently, Jews believe their "god" wants them to rule all the land between the Jordan River and Mediterranean Sea. Now that's a fucking lie!

The arabs probably shouldn't have tried to annihilate the country several times.

Too late for them to cry over spilled land

"The General Assembly of the United Nations, the highest world forum, has voted overwhelmingly for the recognition of the State of Palestine, though in a limited way.

"The resolution adopted by the same forum 65 years ago to the day, to partition historical Palestine between a Jewish and an Arab state, has at long last been reaffirmed...

During the war of 1948, which followed the first resolution, I came to the conclusion that there exists a Palestinian people and that the establishment of a Palestinian state, next to the new State of Israel, is the prerequisite for peace."

Are you crying over peace?

anybody know of a place in the world with a significant muslim population that has ever
MAINTAINED PEACE? I mean real peace----the nice kind----not the one that involves
POGROMS to keep the 'others' down-------or the kind that involves beheadings every tueday and friday--------or the kind that involves BE MUSLIM OR DIE.......

Care to name the greatest purveyor of violence on the planet?
How many innocent human beings has the US Navy killed in your lifetime?
Are you flag-flapping proud of your PERSONAL contribution?

"palestine" is a word used by the ROMANS who shoved their stinking asses into Israel Judea and then invented the NAZI filth which spawned codger For those interested
in just who INVENTED THE IDEA OF LEGAL GENOCIDE for ADOLF ABU ALI ----check out the JUSTINIIAN CODE-------Justinian was the grandson of disgusting murdering imperialist rapist pig CONSTANTINE------constantine invented the filth and Justin codified it . There followed genocide in many parts of the world based on the laws of the HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE------in fact it was HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE FILTH that killed even MONTEZUMA Cortez worked for WHORE ISABELLE of the SPANISH INQUISITION and was actually thru her "HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE" greed for gold---responsible for genocide in the americas

The justinian code was also a forerunner to the VILE FILTH OF DHIMMIA and ADOLF ABU ALI depended on it for his LEGALIZATION OF THE GENOCIDE OF MILLIONS

in the final analysis------pig CONSTANTINE is actually responsible for almost every victim of genocide other than those killed in honor of COMMUNISM on the other hand STALIN was a divinity student in the RELIGION OF CONSTANTINOPLE as a preparatation for becoming a genocidal maniac-----so why blame communism for the millions he murdered

You should talk that proposal over with the tooth fairy next time you meet her.

Is that a kosher fairy?

"Israel is the largest cumulative recipient of U.S. foreign assistance since World War II. To date,
the United States has provided Israel $115 billion in bilateral assistance.

"Almost all U.S. bilateral aid to Israel is in the form of military assistance, although in the past Israel also received significant economic assistance.

"Strong congressional support for Israel has resulted in Israel
receiving benefits not available to any other countries; for example, Israel can use some U.S.
military assistance both for research and development in the United States and for military
purchases from Israeli manufacturers.

"In addition, all U.S. assistance earmarked for Israel is
delivered in the first 30 days of the fiscal year, while most other recipients normally receive aid in
installments.

"In addition to receiving U.S. State Department-administered foreign assistance,
Israel also receives funds from annual defense appropriations bills for joint U.S.-Israeli missile
defense programs.

"In 2007, the Bush Administration and the Israeli government agreed to a 10-year, $30 billion..."

Dwarfed by the cost of maintaining massive US military deployments to defend our allies like South Korea and Japan in the East and our allies in Europe. Were our other allies as capable of defending their interests and ours with only this little bit of military aid, the cost of America's foreign policy would be much lower and many fewer US troops would have to be put in harm's way.

South Korea and Japan haven't been on the receiving end of nearly one hundred UNSC Resolution condemning them for illegal occupations. The cost of maintaining American imperialism would be even lower if the richest 1% of Americans were the first to go in harm's way.

Indeed, the Zionist plan to take over Palestine emerged at the turn of the century.

Another stupid remark from a Pro- Palestinian. The " two State Solution" was thought of after WW 1 which the Arabs also rejected . Notice how these Pro- Pals can't keep their story straight?

LMFAO!!!!!!! 'story straight'???? Please explain the Zionist interpretation of 181 to us Vet...I looked over the entire document and damned if I could find that contingency-clause that cedes historic Palestine to the thieving Jews in the event of a negative Arab vote....at some eventual point in the crude lies you post here there will be a necessary acknowledgement of reality...

The first " claim" was that the Jewish State was thought of after WW 11 in the attempts to steal " Palestine" without the thought of a " Palestinian State". When that turned out to be a lie you stated the " Zionists" then attempted to " steal Palestine" without the thought of a " Palestinian State". Leave it to a Pro- Palestinian Kool- Aid drinker to have a NJA Policy in the Middle East.

 

[georgephillip]

The article is correct in saying there are no prospects for a lasting formal peace in the ME, but the situation for Israel is not nearly so dire as the suggests because none of Israel's enemies, individually or in concert, is strong enough to overcome Israel's military, and for this reason the prospects for long lasting periods of peacefulness are quite good.

The cost to America of trying to maintain peacefulness among Israel and its neighbors is dwarfed by the cost of maintaining enormous military deployments of US troops to defend our allies in the Pacific such as South Korea and Japan or our allies in Europe, and the rationale behind US efforts to maintain peacefulness in the region is that if the US abandons the region, others step up to fill the power vacuum which are hostile to US interests. This is what happened in the 1950's when the US had a hands off policy toward the ME and France and Britain recruited Israel to take Sinai, and in the 1960's and 1970's before the US made a commitment to peacefulness in the ME and the Soviet Union moved in to foment wars that nearly drew the US into military confrontations with the Soviet Union.

If America's other allies were as capable of defending their interests as well as ours as Israel is with only a few billion dollars of aid, the cost of foreign policy would be much lower and many fewer US troops would have to be put in harm's way.

Have you ever heard the expression "whistling past the graveyard?"

"Israel now looks north to a Lebanon where Hezbollah possesses more and better rockets than the metal-shop jobs Hamas fired off. Beyond lies a powerful Turkey whose prime minister just declared Israel a 'terrorist' state.

"To the northeast lies Syria, where the 40-year truce on the Golan is unlikely to last after Bashar al-Assad falls and is replaced by a Sunni regime rooted in the Muslim Brotherhood, or becomes a failed state saturated with jihadists and loose chemical weapons.

"To the east lies Jordan, wracked by riots, a monarchy that looks to be a candidate for an Arab Spring uprising.

"To the south and west are Hamas, a Sinai that is a no man’s land, and an Egypt dominated by the Brotherhood, millions of whose people would like to see the Israeli peace treaty trashed.

"Israel is as isolated as she has been in a region that is more hostile to her presence than perhaps at any time since the war of ’48."

I dont really understand the point of this post georgie. Are you saying Israel should fear her neighbors? If hezbollah ever decides to launch rockets into Israel again, all Nasrallah needs to do is look at a google map of souther Lebanon after the 2006 war.

If Israel believes that five million Jews are entitled to rule over six million Arabs, it will vanish into the same sewer as White South Africa. Any legitimate two-state solution will require tens of thousands of "Jewish" settlers to abandon the West Bank. How likely is it they'll be welcomed with open arms in Tel Aviv? Israel might well turn out to be its own worst enemy.

Whistle all you want, but from your perspective it won't be a happy tune, since no combination of Israel's enemies has the potential to defeat the Jewish state. Israel has the world's most effective air defense system and within two years it will be able to handle anything any of its enemies can throw at it as easily as it handled the 1,500 + rockets Gaza fired at it. Its home front defense is superior to that of any other country in the world. Each home or apartment built in Israel since 1991 is required by law to have a safe room capable of withstanding a direct hit by these rockets and there are numerous public shelters and more being built all the time.

Israel's enemies are capable of making a lot of noise but not of doing much harm.

Boycotts?
Divestment?
Sanctions?
SWIFT??

"If international civil society is serious about urgently ending Israel’s violations of Palestinian rights, including ending the occupation, then suspension of SWIFT transactions to and from Israeli banks offers an instrument to help bring about a peaceful resolution of an intractable conflict..."

"SWIFT links 8,740 financial institutions in 209 countries. Without access to SWIFT and its interbank payment network, countries are unable either to pay for imports or to receive payment for exports. In short, no payment — no trade."

"Sir Ronald Storrs, the first Governor of Jerusalem, certainly had no illusions about what a 'Jewish homeland' in Palestine meant for the British Empire: 'It will form for England,” he said, “a little loyal Jewish Ulster in a sea of potentially hostile Arabism.'”

Maybe the Arabs rejected Sir Ronald?

Where is palestine? The only one I know is in Texas.....

Why don't you ask a Jew who was living in Palestine before Israel came into existence?

"At the time,(1949) it looked like mission impossible. 'Palestine' had been wiped off the map.

"78% of the country had become Israel, the other 22% divided between Jordan and Egypt.

"The very existence of a Palestinian people was vehemently denied by the Israeli establishment, indeed, the denial became an article of faith.

"Much later, Golda Meir famously declared that 'there is no such thing as a Palestinian people'.

"Respected charlatans wrote popular books 'proving' that the Arabs in Palestine were pretenders who had only recently arrived. The Israeli leadership was convinced that the 'Palestinian problem' had disappeared, once and forever."

Which would seem to raise the issue of "transfer."

"In the view of Flapan[86] records are available from archives and diaries which while not revealing a specific plan or precise orders for expulsion, they provide overwhelming circumstantial evidence to show that a design was being implemented by the Haganah, and later by the IDF, to reduce the number of Arabs in the Jewish state to a minimum and to make use of most of their lands, properties, and habitats to absorb the masses of Jewish immigrants."
