A frail-looking Bill Clinton called out “young Arab Americans” in a hoarse defense of Israel’s deadly war against Hamas in Gaza during a stump speech in Michigan — a swing state with a large Arab population, which has made Israel policy a major issue.
“The hardest issue here in Michigan is the Middle East,” Clinton, 78, shakily told the crowd at a “Souls to the Polls” event in Muskegon Heights in western Michigan Wednesday morning, according to Michigan Live.
“I understand why young Palestinians and Arab Americans here in Michigan think too many people have died. I get that,” he continued, adding that it was difficult to assess “how many [deaths] is enough to punish them [Hamas] for the terrible thing they did?”
“The people there were the most pro-friendship with Palestine, the most pro-two state solution of any of the Israeli community, were the ones right next to Gaza, and Hamas butchered them,” Clinton lamented, referring to the’ Oct. 7, 2023, terror attack on southern Israel in which Hamas killed 1,200 people and kidnapped 250 others.

Yeah. He’s on the wrong side of the state.
Except that a two-state solution is no solution because one state (”Palestine”) still would want the other state (Israel) to be destroyed utterly. A two-state situation would only serve to legitimize the operation of the one to destroy the other.
