Really? What do you suppose would be the outcome were Israel to simply annex Judea and Samaria -- it is, after all, non-sovereign territory -- and repatriate its Arab citizens to Jordan? Can't have two states on one place. What do YOU think the U.N. would do then? Expel Israel? Oy, olevai. I don't exactly see anyone planning a massive invasion of Israel. Do you? Especially not the United States. The U.S. could not defeat a bunch of barefoot warlords in Somalia. Here's a news flash: Israel ain't Somalia.

There should not have been any freeze to begin with. Israel should know by now that whatever you give these parasites they want more.more. more.

Sometimes, Scottie, you REALLY are obtuse. The ersatz "Palestinians" "declared" a state in 1988. The United Nations General Assembly enthusiastically endorsed it. Yeah, right. Not one member state of that august body extended diplomatic recognition, opened an embassy or appointed an ambassador. YAWWWWN. Been there, seen it, done it. I ask you this: What do YOU think will happen when Israel annexes Judea and Samaria, and repatriates all its Arab residents -- who are Jordanian citizens, in case you are not aware -- to Jordan? Keep in mind that the West Bank is non-sovereign territory, and Israel acquired it in the course of fighting a defensive war, and is therefore fully entitled to retain the acquisition. What the U.N. decrees or does not decree is irrelevant, certainly to Israel. If it could, the U.N. would decree Israel out of existence. So, even assuming that the declaration of "Palestinian" statehood were to have a greater impact than the declaration of "Palestinian" statehood had in 1988, what do you think will be the outcome? Israel capitulating? Not hardly. So, what's left? I just don't see the United States -- or anyone else, for that matter -- invading Israel. Do you? Let's face it: the United States was soundly thrashed and sent packing by a handful of barefoot Somali warlords. Israel is a nuclear power. Israel is not Somalia. You would do well to keep that in mind as you compose your utterly nonsensical and entirely irrelevant posts. I know you THINK you are an intellectual, but you are actually a consummate fool with absolutely no knowledge of the history or the geopolitical realities of the Middle East. If you are, as you purport, a Scotsman, why not study oh, say, the clearances, before venturing upon the Middle East, a topic which is demonstrably well beyond your capacity to understand?
