The American mistake    Giora Eiland
31. Pragmatism and Assumptions
Obama is proceeding from the assumption that with Israel and the Palestinians he is dealing with two reasonable entities. As a pragmatist, he believes that with good will, they will resolve their conflict.Israel maintains that the PLO is unreasonable in their demands. The Palestinians, on the other hand have always predicated their demands upon justice. The Partition of Palestine was unjust, the declaration of the Jewish state was unjust, the settling of Europeans in Arab lands was unjust, etc. It is this gap that Obama must bridge: before getting the two sides io again negotiate. An agreement to terminate a conflict must be judged primarily if it doable and if both sides can live with it. Let history decide if it is just.

32. 5# They could give them Great Britain and the killing
wouldn't stop. Or Europe for that matter. They are out birthing the entire European Union. The muslims are going to take your land as well. The faucet keeps dripping for several decades......then you have a lake covering the whole EU. I'd be worrying about your land being taken in front of your very eyes. They'll be building a wall around all the Khaffers that are left in Great Britain in 40 years time.

33. Herzl like solution for Arab-‘Palestinians'
The USA two-state solution hypothesis is false and denies the obvious true reality, more so, is totally moronic! Alternate solutions that can be easily presented: the Benjamin Theodore Herzl like solution for the Arab-‘Palestinians’ whereby the Palestinian are no longer under Israel’s control…SURE, the 22-State Solution…the International Community must gather all its resources and FORCE all the 22-Arab Nations to take in the mingy number of Arab-‘Palestinians' and this way the conflict is over in an instant and Israel can then thrive even farther and become the stabilizing force in the Middle East.
