No, Rewarding Islamists With a Palestinian State Isn’t the Only Option for Israel
New York Post ^ | Dec. 1, 2023 | Social Links forDavid Harsanyi

Posted on 12/01/2023 4:18:53 PM PST by nickcarraway

“Ultimately,” contends Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.), the next Israeli government “is going to have to put us back on a path to have a Palestinian state. That’s not easy, but it is the only way forward for Israel, is the only way forward for long-term peace.”

Well, it’s not the only way forward, right? Israel could clamp down on Palestinian autonomy until the violence against innocent Jewish civilians stops, and residents start living peacefully with their neighbors and begin accepting history’s outcomes.

That’s another option. While the situation today is appalling, creating a three-front Iran-backed terror state on the borders of a nation the size of New Jersey would make things significantly worse.

I am all for a Palestinian state. Carved from a small parcel of land from Iran.

Since they are so buddy-buddy with weapons and helping each other, and all that other good muslim stuff...

Total destruction of hamas, eliminating and annexing Gaza and expelling those who claim to be Palestinians.

Many famous people have said that ‘History repeats itself”.
History is not an inanimate object choosing it’s own path, rather it is a living testament to human failure, which is why it seems to endlessly repeat itself.
Very simply put, history repeats itself because politicians constantly, almost invariably take the easy way out when confronted with hard choices.
The appeasement of Hitler back in the 1930s is a prime example. It was easier to repeatedly cave to his demands than it was to confront his aggression.
We’re seeing exactly the same appeasement with radical Islamists now.
The “Two State Solution” is dead-on-arrival because it requires that the Palestinians recognize Israel’s right to exist, which they will never, never do.
Someone with a big megaphone needs to shout this down so that the cowardly turds stop bringing this up, as if it’s a credible solution to an intractable problem.

Well, I would say Jordan or maybe Egypt, but the fact is, no other Middle Eastern state actually wants a Palestinian state. Unless it is to destroy Israel.

If for hypothetical thought experiment, All Jews left Israel, and it became a "Palestinian state," it would not be supported.

The Palestinians don’t want their own state unless Israel is destroyed and every Jew is murdered. And don’t take my word for it; ask them! This fact is not a secret.

The “two-state solution” isn’t something that was cobbled together in the last two months — or even two decades.

It was actually established as part of the U.N. plan to partition Palestine when the British ceded control over it after World War II.

This is why I’ve said for years that those Palestinians aren’t going anywhere.

I fear Israel will have to set up the entirety of the West Bank and Gaza as giant re-education camps, a la Pol Pot, if it wants peace with the animals. Maybe their new Chicom connections will help.

Oh I beg to differ...they are going somewhere..to their grave . A buffer zone of about 3-5 miles should be ok so that Israel can be kinda safe and see the inbred muzzies coming ya know? IMHO

Has anyone seen or read about a single Palestinian who rounces their evil violence, renounces the core tenants of HAMAS and Islam, and is willing to live in peace with Jews and Christians? I haven’t, thus, to me, every Palestinian is a HAMAS terrorist, if armed, they need to be hunted down and killed. Not sure about the unarmed, as they still support terrorism, can’t be trusted in a civilized society. Time for an Islamic country to take them in, maybe return them all to Jordan, maybe send them all to the west bank, cede it to Jordan and be done with them all? Finish leveling Gaza and turn it into a big park, desolate one, but a park. Or, if they keep fighting, a parking lot.

Its exactly why no other muslim country wants them. They are very useful pawns for the muslims, just the way they are.

That phrase has already been “co-opted” many times (assuming it wasn’t a Zionist slogan to begin with).
