36. I, too, recognize a "Palestinian" state
Sarah B , |

It is called Jordan. That is the ONLY one that the ersatz "Palestinians" will EVER have, so they need to get used to the idea and go about the process of figuring out whether they want to keep the monarchy or not, and if they wish to maintain the current structure in Jordan, which is extremely ineffective and can be dissolved by the monarch at will.
Judea and Samaria will be annexed by Israel -- the precarious regimes surrounding Israel dictate that Israel must have defensible borders -- and its Arab residents will be repatriated to Jordan, country of their citizenship.
It really is the best of all possible worlds. Jordan is a made-up country, carved out of the Palestine Mandate so that the British could appease the younger brother, Abdullah, of Feisal, whom the British had just made King of Iraq.
Jordan is the completely illegitimate entity in the Middle East. Let the ersatz "Palestinians" build their state there.

How about the borders defined by the League of Nations, before the Brits swiped 75% of Jewish Palestine and gave it to Emir Abdullah as a payoff for services rendered during World War One ?
Democracy, did you ask the Native Canadian Indians to vote before you stole their land from them ?

FACT..Unless and UNTil Abbas and Co,decides to sit down at the table to negotiate nothing will emanate from these stupid countries who think they will take over the force of the Israeli GOVT..

To think because some nations are trying to form a CLIQUE of nonentities by putting forward the
recognition of NONE STATE, and forgetting that Abbas has decided to Join Hamas should be cause for concern at the stupidity by these fragile nations who have much to worry on their background in lieu of meddling in the delicate affairs of the ME.. I give up on their lack thought process thinking there weill be A Palestinian state at their dictum .

Salma, enough already. You will go when Israel decides that you will go.
That is likely to happen when Israel annexes Judea and Samaria, which will result in the concomitant repatriation of its Arab residents to Jordan, whose citizenship they hold.
It's over, Salma. You are well advised to cut your losses and assert Jordan as the "Palestinian" state. There is no future for you in Medinat Israel -- you have proven yourselves as unreliable and disloyal, and you will never be a citizen of Israel. Build your own democracy (good luck with that one, by the way).

47. #12 - too bad you've bastardized Intl law
William , |
Israel |
|
(03.04.11) |
but ideological self-righteous Leftists often do.
Brutal occupation? If it were brutal, there'd be tens of thousands more dead and a huge humanitarian crisis. In truth, Gaddafi has done more damage in 2 weeks than Israel has done to "Palestinians" in 2 decades.
"Right to land occupied in 1967" - actually, according to Intl law, the land isn't even the property of these Arabs. Much of it was stolen from Jewish owners after they were ethnically cleansed in 1948 (a war crime), it was illegally annexed by Jordan (which only 2 States accepted), and it was flooded with Arabs from Jordan for 19 years (a violation of Geneva Convention).
Records show that over 90% of the land was State land, ergo not private ownership, which means it reverts to the govt, which is Israel after Jordan relinquished a claim on the land it illegally stole.
Twist Intl Law anyway you want, but the documentation in black and white show otherwise, as does accepted law.

48. #17 - it wasn't optimum in 1967, it's not in 2011
William , |
Israel |
|
(03.04.11) |
The UN in 1967 was wise enough to know that 1967 borders were neither optimal nor defensible. They knew that going back to those cease-fire lines would be a recipe for continued Arab aggression - and they were right.
Between 1948 and 1967, the Arabs continually crossed the cease-fire lines to attack civilians in the middle of the night and sneak back to terrorist-held territory.
It's not a surprise that every Western leader who demanded 1967 lines changed their tune immediately upon visiting Israel and seeing the topology of the "border".
This isn't about final peace for Arabs, it's about keeping Israel unsafe and saving reputation by paying no price for their years of terrorism and lost wars.

50. #30 - Why not merge Canada and the US
William , |

|
(03.04.11) |
One State, one adult, one vote - it's democracy, dumbass!
Arabs do not want to live under Jewish rule and the "Palestinians" certainly don't want to live in Israel except when it helps them economically. They've already said that.
And since they began a racist war to eliminate Israel, and really haven't stopped until now, why would shoving two groups of people who dislike each other together suddenly have them hugging and singing?
Are you a family counselor by profession, because only an idiot could somehow come to that option.
But you're in Montreal, the "frenchies" who keep trying to break away from Canada, essentially breaking your own advice.

51. #5 - viable for who? You can't impose your will on Israel
William , |
Israel |
|
(03.04.11) |
whether its borders or forcing two States as one, the Intl community has no moral right nor a legal mandate to do so on a sovereign nation. Read the UN charter, numb-nuts!
The days of fictitious borders and forced assimilation by colonial powers of the West are gone. The Brits did this after WWI and today we see the fractures of their mistakes.
The only real alternative is for Pallys to vacate to Jordan or remain a small autonomous province of Jordan, but never a sovereign nation.

52. I actually welcome a unilateral declaration by the PA
William , |
Israel |
|
(03.04.11) |
While they'll have no means of enforcing 1967 cease-fire lines as their border, nor keeping their terrorists from taking advantage of the situation and forcing an IDF response...
they will have to contend with millions of "Palestinian refugees" demanding entrance to this new State, which would be a massive disaster for the PA - and a huge laugh by the world as the true intentions are uncovered.

But the game is up......no more acting arrogent. The world will dictate what Israel does........not your tiny country amigo. By the way we Americans are tired of fighting wars because we were supporting you. They come after us and we are tired of using our military and depleting our treasury for your spoiled mentality. There will be a country called Palestinains like it or not.

The fact is that American's are on Israel's side, 63% in favor, the minority like yourself, against
It's in the Gallup Polls, look it up
Which war did America fight in Israel's behalf, be specific ??
Make sure it wasn't about oil, which would have been strictly for America's on self-interests
Sure., we're spoiled, we just consider not being killed by an enemy that outnumbers us, not to be in our own interests
Concering the treasury, facts are that the monies, by law, must be spent in the USA to buy American Products, which contributes to American Employment, which by the way, even the likes of you should know that Unemployment is now over 10%
You can now move your wagon full of horse pucky to another location, the contents stink

57. Palestine Borders
Anthony , |
LONDON |
|
(03.22.11) |
Dear All
The UN recommends a two-state solution. No country (even the US) recognises Israel's claim of Arab East Jerusalem. The International Court in the Hague and the EU view settlements as illegal too which makes the current Israeli Government's expansionist concepts futile.
A two-state solution as per the Road Map (which the Israeli Government has already signed up to including ending settlements) is the best way forward.
Best wishes
