Uri Avnery's thoughts on Romney and Netanyahu:
"IN HIS latest seizure of wisdom, Romney did not only disclose that 47% of Americans are parasites, but also that 'the Palestinians' want to destroy Israel. According to him, the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians has no solution, it will go on forever.
"I wonder where he got this last piece from..."
"I know quite a number of Palestinians, and not one of them believes that Israel can be annihilated. Since Yasser Arafat decided in late 1973 that he must come to terms with Israel, the great majority of Palestinians want a deal that will enable them to set up a state of their own in a part of historical Palestine. This is called the 'two-state solution'
"The present government of Israel does not want this, because they are not ready to give up the 22% of historical Palestine which would become the State of Palestine. Since they have no viable alternative, the governments spokespeople assert that 'this conflict has no solution'
This conflict has no solution as long as there's more profit in war than in peace.
"Choosing" between Republican OR Democrat guarantees more of the former.
FLUSH Republicans AND Democrats from DC on November 6th.
GIVE PEACE A (FIGHTING) CHANCE.
