So Jill and DVE, is there a chance that Palistinian will ever be its own state or do the Israeli's insist on owning them forever?
I'm trying to put myself in Obama's shoes. I'm sure he is not an expert on Israeli/Palistinian conflicts. Neither am I. So what is the solution guys?
israel doesn't own them. they have their own govt. but which govt does israel deal with? the more moderate "fatah" or the terrorist hamasniks? hamas has sworn to destroy israel.
neither recognizes israel's "right to exist"... as if anyone needs to recognize the right of a sovereign nation to exist... but whatever.
in answer to your question. if the pals want a country, they will have to accept that israel is going to exist as a jewish state with defensible borders. if they can't do that, there's not a lot of room for give.
if they get past that little concept, they could have had their own country a long time ago.
I actually think Netanyu has a better chance at peace than Barak and Rabin ever did because the israeli's know he won't sell out their security... sort of like nixon having the anti-commie street cred to open china.
oh.. .and you might find shogie not such a good source on the region... he thinks the jews should be in utah and israel shouldn't exist.
Hey Jillian. Why is it wrong for the US to be a Christian nation but it is ok for Israel to be a Jewish state?
dont expect an answer. Jill is notoriously willing to disappear when having to clarify her racism.. you know, like admitting that she does not want israel to maintain the same standard of non-bias that SHE enjoys here in the US if it applies to non-jews in israel.
