A majority of both Israelis and Palestinians support a peace agreement based on the two-state solution formula, a Hebrew University poll found, though many respondents reported that they were skeptical as to the sustainability of such an agreement in the long term.

The study, conducted jointly by the Harry S. Truman Research Institute for the Advancement of Peace at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research in Ramallah, found that 63 percent of Israelis and 53% of Palestinians support the establishment of a Palestinian state alongside Israel, the university said in a statement Tuesday.

Wrong. Most “Palestinians” (whatever that concocted designation means) will SAY they support a 2-state solution, but, if realized, will work tirelessly to destroy Israel anyway.

WTF? Harry S. Truman was the first world leader to recognize the Jewish State (as he called it in his pronouncement on May 14, 1948). He supported the Jews over the Arabs and rejected FDR's promise to the towel heads to "consult" them before taking any such action. He would oppose the creation of a "Palestinian" state. They should change the name of this stupid institute.

There are already two states in mandatory “palestine” — Israel and Jordan.

maybe Kerry will try to carve up Jordan, too?

What REALLY would be interesting is if they DID negotiate a treat for say,, oh 7 years or so and this treaty also allowed Israel to build a temple on the temple mount.

Hmmm.
