Joe Manchin and John Fetterman will not support a 2 state solution

[Votto]

John Fetterman and Joe Manchin decline to back resolution supporting a 2-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict​

• Sen. Brian Schatz is sponsoring an amendment affirming support for a two state solution in Israel.
• Just two Democratic senators didn't sign on: John Fetterman and Joe Manchin.
• A spokesman for Fetterman said the resolution should "include language stipulating the destruction of Hamas"

On Wednesday, Democratic Sen. Brian Schatz of Hawaii released an amendment to a forthcoming national security bill that affirms US support for a two-state solution to the Israel-Palestine conflict.
"What will determine the future of Israel and Palestine is whether or not there's hope," Schatz told reporters on Wednesday. "And the two-state solution has to be that hope."
In a rare show of unity on the issue — which has increasingly become a source of division within the Democratic Party — nearly every single Democratic senator signed onto the amendment.
The only two who did not were Sens. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania and Joe Manchin of West Virginia.
In a statement to Business Insider, a Fetterman spokesman reiterated the Pennsylvania Democrat's support for a two-state solution in Israel and Palestine, but said that he "strongly believes that this resolution should include language stipulating the destruction of Hamas as a precondition to peace."
Manchin, meanwhile, indicated in a statement that his support for such a resolution is predicated on Palestinian recognition of Israel.
"I'm pretty sure that Hamas will not cohabitate peacefully with Israel while being a terrorist group that has publicly dedicated itself to the destruction of Israel", said Manchin.
"Nonsense!" replied Schatz. "Anyone can see that 10/7 was just a cry for help. There are really good people on both sides even though all of Gaza supports the destruction of Jews. See, no Jews, no war. Easy peasy."

I was hoping that Manchin would run for president

The only state the Palis should get is the state of oblivion.

To run against him would be suicide............literally.

There is no 2 state "solution"

A two-state solution is long past. The Palis had their chances, and turned them down because they required recognition of Israel’s right to exist.

So NOW, after the monsters tortured innocent Jews, including children and babies, to death in ways designed to make their final moments on earth as agonizing as possible, there should be negotiations for their own state?!

It’s akin to negotiating with terrorists. When the Palis decide they want more land, all they have to do is massacre more Jews.

 

[Blaster]

Two Democrats that think for themselves and are not part of the herd mentality.

 

[candycorn]

Nor should they when one of the states wants to destroy the other.

From the river to the sea, its only a matter of who it will be.

Over and over again Palestinians claim that the only solution is not only the destruction of Israel but killing Jews world wide. Does " from the desert to the sea Palestine will be free" mean nothing to these idiots?

There's no difference between what you guys are saying and what Mansion and Fetterman are saying.

Is there?

Their antisemitism blinds them to the truth.

They also decline continuing their political careers after their current terms are done.
