Would be more hard to boycott everything chinese , as nearly everything is chinese made bny now ... but as you say , the question was ... but now the new question is the old one : Why not make peace ? Why continue the aggressions and wait for the foreseeable responses just to get a reason to hit back even harder ? Disgusting .

Make peace , work together for a better world , people around the world would respect the Israelis for this .

Peace requires at least two sides. The Palestinian are currently having trouble having peace even among themselves.

Making peace with people who want to eradicate you is not a sensible thing to do .

It would be very likely that the Palestinians would use their Country to wage war against Israel .

As Israel's late prime minister, Rabin, said - peace is made with enemies. Not all of the Palestinian are out to eradicate Israel, and not all that currently wish it would hold the same views if given an alternative. Israel's security situation may face certain threats following such an agreement, but will also be improved on other fronts. Most of these considerations have been addressed in various formulations of possible conflict resolution suggestions. It is hardly the case that holding on to the West Bank is conductive to Israel's security.

Palestinians would have no means to ever win a war against Israel , and they know this . Just another lame excuse ...

Winning an outright war, probably not. Inflicting severe damage, yes. There are various steps which could restrict the capabilities of a Palestinian state (or elements within) in carrying out aggression against Israel. It cannot, however, be fully guaranteed that these would cover all options or that they would hold. Lame would be to ignore security considerations as being paramount to any agreement, even if these mean a less than ideal situation.

For Israel to give any concessions , the whole of the Middle east and all Islamic Countries would have to recognise and accept Israel and normalise relations with them .

   Saudi, Iran, Pakistan , Malaysia etc would all have to be on friendly, at least, non aggressive terms with them .

   Allow the US $300 Billion worth of assets that Jews left behind in the Middle east whilst fleeing to Israel , to be given back to them

And you think Hamas defines all Palestinians? Does Bibi define the character of all Israelis? Are all Americans aligned with the Donald?

 

Indeed, but look at these topics - do most participants make such distinctions? Not really. Do Israelis and Palestinians make them with regard to each other? Somewhat.

 

Hamas represents a major segment of the Palestinian public, at least as far as political support is concerned. Not all of it is direct support for all of its views and agenda - like other cases (Israel & USA, to name obvious examples), popular support is usually grounded on several issues rather than one. Many times people go for something because the alternative is less appealing.

Most peace talks relating to the Palestinians touch on that, usually with a reference to the Saudi Peace Initiative. It is essentially pretty much what you describe in terms of recognition and normalization. Granted, it does not cover all relevant countries - obvious examples would be Iran, Syria and Lebanon. It could be argued that having such a regional agreement, even if not all encompassing, would be a better position than not having it, and that it might be used as a leverage to curb Iran's ambitions and designs.

 

The issue of the Jewish assets left behind in Arab countries is more related to the so-called Palestinian Right of Return issue. There are various ways which allow for both to be resolved. Probably not to all sides complete satisfaction, though.

Yes , all this was already discussed I do not know how many times on TV . It never lead to anything ...

Look at it from a different angle  >  If the Israelis would become , ( purely hypothetical question ) , the rulers of the world , what kind of world would that be ?

A world worth living in , with mutual understanding , people working together , no more poverty , sharing the resources , living in peace and harmony >>>

Or would there be some people in their golden palaces , living in incredible luxury , while the others woud be exploited by them ?

Just imagine what kind of world that would be  if the Israelis had the " absolute power " on this planet ?

Do not hesitate to share your thoughts ...

You are assuming that all Israelis are the same. That's pretty much a non-starter for any reasonable discussion, even one with less of an inane premise than suggested above.

Oh , come on , what would it be like if you , Morch , would be the leader of the world ?

Whatever you talk about, its meaningless. It assumes that the country got a unified view, set of mind, and goals. A country does not rule as such, rather its leadership does. In democratic systems, this leadership if often either a compromise or partial representation of the electorate.

Exactly right , so what do you think this leadership would make of the world ?

Is this correct "?

You are concerned about Jews ruling the World and supporting Palestinians in their conflict with Israel will help stop Jews ruling the World ?

That is BS , I was asking a simply question that requires only a bit of imagination to answer , and I was expecting answers , but did not get one by now ...

Are you politicians ? At least you talk like ...

Although you did ask a question, you also gave your opinion of what you thought that it would be like .

   Your imagination of how the World would be if Jews ruled the World is very similar to the extreme Right-wings views .

    Maybe you are correct, maybe not, I have no idea . what it would be like

Ok , I got the picture ... just what I thought ...bye bye
