If the PA & Hamas agree to recognize the right of the state of Israel to exist and the right of the Jews to live in their homeland, and this is signed in blood, then BAMMO! the Palis get their state.
But we know that’ll never happen, don’t we? (sly grin)
Yes we most certainly do.
If they do agree then why should Israel believe them, given past actions and statements?
There are two ways that the Palestinian Authority gets their state ... one way is by negotiations with the Israelis and setting up the security arrangements that Israel needs. The second way they get it is without negotiations from Israel and simply recognition from other countries and the UN, with accompanying sanctions on Israel if they don’t comply.
Now, of the two ways, it’s more advantageous for Israel to accomplish it by negotiations. The disaster for Israel is to have sanctions on them, and no business in the world able to do any commerce with them any longer. That would do more damage to Israel than all the rockets that Hamas has shot at them in the history of their fight.
Netanyahu knows which way produces better results for Israel.
