ozimoron Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 5 minutes ago, CharlieKo said: Israel has tried a number of times to make peace with the Palestinians. On each occasion the Palestinians rejected peace. So really the Palestinians have deprived themselves of Life, Liberty, and Happiness. The Israelis have never agreed to a two state solution involving all original Palestinian lands since either 1948 or 1967. Their "peace" proposals have never been fair, just or equitable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozimoron Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 The options for Israel should be to accept a two state solution based on 1967 borders or a single state solution with full voting rights for all Palestinians and Israeli Arabs, including the right of return for those expelled to Lebanon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I don't see much change from the status quo but even more so from the more right wing Israeli government at this point and of course the status quo is not good. The Arabs in the region can't possibly defeat Israel militarily, Israel does have more and more acceptance in the greater Arab world, and it is not true that the USA is Israel's only foreign ally. They're not that stupid to rely on only one ally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozimoron Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 (edited) Netanyahu compares to Hitler in the sense that both exhibited extreme racism and crimes against humanity. I did not claim he is as bad as Hitler. It's a shame that the people who suffered the worst injustices of the last world war. are now among the worst perpetrators of racial injustice and crimes against humanity. The Chinese are also right up there with Tibetans and Uyghurs as are the Turks and Iranians against Kurds, another population without their own nation state.

Jingthing Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 The Arabs in the region certainly have very legitimate grievances. But they are in a neighborhood where tiny Israel has one of the most powerful militaries in the world. Which is why I talk about REALISTIC. For things to improve, there needs to be buy in from Israel. Israel is now controlled by more right wing forces than ever. So the Arab side to have any chance at all for things to improve in this environement will need to eat some very strong humble pie. Formally recognize Israel's right to exist. Raise political leaders that support cooperation with Israel, to increase peace and prosperity for all. We all know they won't do that. They are very proud and that's understandable, but not being willing to radically change their attitude towards Israel and PROVING that to Israelis means quite simply there is no REALISTIC solution in sight for the immediate, medium term, or even long term future.

Realistic isn't just. Don't shout, it's against the rules. The Palestinians deserve their own nation. That was stolen from them in 1948. I'm not suggesting that Israel doesn't deserve to exist but it doesn't deserve to steal Palestinian land against i8nternational law. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole region will have to have to accept Israel's right to exist and have normal relations , that includes Iran , Syria , Libya and all other Countries who oppose Israel's right to exist. Israel could only give concessions to the Palestinians once there are no longer any more threats to its very existence . Hard-line Muslims Countries will have to recognise Judaism and accept that Israel isnt an Islamic Country 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
