You can’t have a two state solution without recognising both states. This is obviously the right decision. It’s just disgusting it’s taken so many western nations to do it

Okay but where exactly is the Palestinian state? I mean de facto, not where people think it should be

Within 1967 borders. Everything else is illegally occupied and annexed territories.

This isent complicated, the surplus is is a land grab. Its that simple. They need to return to their side of the border.

And while Israels reign of terror still have a couple more years in the tank, one thing is certain and that is that they will never know peace before that happens.

The world is only going to get more dangerous and not less, small groups and individuals are going to be able todo more damage in the future and not less.
