Democrats sound alarm on West Bank under Trump administration
The Hill ^ | 11/29/2024 | MIKE LILLIS

Posted on 11/29/2024 11:41:57 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

House Democrats are sounding early alarms that a second Trump administration will lead to a vast erosion of Palestinian rights and undermine efforts to bring peace to the volatile Middle East.

The lawmakers fear President-elect Trump’s staunchly pro-Israel sensibilities — combined with his cozy relationship with Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — could not only pave the way for Israel to annex the West Bank, but also dash any chance of a two-state approach that’s viewed widely in Washington as the only viable path to a lasting peace in the region.

The Dems couldn’t find Samaria on a map. There must be some money slipping under the table.

The lawmakers fear

These idiots don't understand that the arabs don't want and won't accept a "two-state solution".

President Trump should cut the Gordon Knot and formally recognize the West Bank as Israel territory along with the Golan Heights.

Go for it, Mr. Netanyahu.

This is a prime example of the saying “…history repeats itself…”.

Invariably it involves politicians taking the easy way out of a difficult crisis.

The two state solution is as dead as Julius Caesar.

The correct name is Judea and Samaria, not the “West Bank.”

The news will now take on a very different tone regards world affairs and presidential coverage.

Biden can literally shit his pants, fall up the stairs, get lost on stage, let one rip before a royal, ramble incoherently... and the news, fact checkers, etc. will defend this senile old guy that likes to sniff and hold onto young girls a little to long to the last.

Classic: https://nypost.com/2021/11/07/camilla-parker-bowles-keeps-talking-about-biden-fart-at-cop26/

And here’s our factual (sarc) msm and fact checkers: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/biden-fart-duchess-cornwall/ Unproven! Hahaha

Trump could cure cancer, and the US msm will run an article how this will lead to a spike in population and climate concerns.

As I recall, all this was under control when Trump was in before.

What are the etymologies of “Judea” and “Samaria”?

ChatGPT said:

ChatGPT

“Judea” comes from the Hebrew “Yehudah,” which refers to the tribe of Judah, the southern kingdom of Israel. It was later used for the region that was part of the ancient Kingdom of Judah. “Samaria” derives from the name of the ancient city Samaria, which was the capital of the northern kingdom of Israel. The city’s name itself may come from the Hebrew root “shmr,” meaning “to watch” or “to guard.”

I think the new Trump golf course would be better set in Gaza near the sea, but I wouldn’t be opposed to using the West Bank for such a purpose.
