Land for Peace Doesn’t Work

It is one of the central doctrines of the Leftists’ church: “land for peace.”

That was supposed to put an end to the conflict in the Middle East. These days we encounter the definite end of that dream. The Israeli army last Sunday returned to Netzarim. Three years ago, Netzarim and other so-called ‘settlements’ were abandoned as a part of the framework of disengagement. This withdrawal should have then led to peace. But 5,000 arguments for a different reality rained down in the form of Kassam rockets on the residents of the Negev.

“Land for Peace” is a medicine based on the wrong diagnosis. The war against Israel is not a territorial conflict and thus can not be solved with territorial concessions. Giving away an area does not help. Hamas cum suis are not fighting for pieces of land but for the total final victory of Islam, to which the rapid destruction of Israel is only a transitional stage. The conflict is jihad, the violent duty of every Muslim. Israel is located on the fault line of the dar-al-Islam and dar-al-Harb. To Islam, all of Israel is occupied territory and Tel Aviv is as much a “settlement” as was Netzarim. The Hamas charter doesn’t know the word ‘polder model’

And yet, there will be another agreement based on the false premise and the false hope of peace.

Land for peace will work if both sides want peace.

If there is no desire for peace, there will never be peace unless one or both sides are eliminated.

I would like to suggest that the United States declare all Muslims persona-non-grata and ship them back to the desert from which they came.

Let’s be clear: There is no such thing as a “palestinian” ( media construct from the 60s), there has never been a “state” of Palestine. There is THE Palestine- like the Grand Canyon and the Sahara desert. This isn’t about a “homeland”. It IS about the absolute destruction of Israel and as many Jews as possible. The “palestinians” are actually the citizens of OTHER arab countries. I would bet real money that IF they ever achieve their ACTUAL goals that there will not BE a “Palestine” afterwards. What there will be is a dividing up of the territory among the present arab countries.

The rest is smoke and mirrors and BS.

I’m starting to like John Bolten’s idea more and more. Give the gaza strip back to Egypt and give the west bank to Jordan. Make Jerusalem a UN administered area where both Jews, Christians and Moslems can go to worship.
