Just in case anyone wants to discuss that topic, ad nauseum...

Just one thing...

And besides, the Palestinians already have a state - its called Jordan.

Why don't you just say, "They all look the same to me".

my view:

Palestininians deserve their own state and if the Israeli state wasn't so propped up by international funds it would have probably been crushed decades ago. Work out a parallel line somewhere they both agree to. As long as the West Bank is connected to the Gaza strip...Palestininians may have to give up the Golan Heights..they can be compensated in other ways.

Israelies believe the they have a god given right to be where they are/ it was their promised land. By their own historical religious stories God abandoned them and it then wasn't till after WW2 the state was re-instated by treaties decided by the victors. The premise sucks.

As for Jerusalem... it could be set up as a seperate state under the protectorate of the UN with open borders...it'll survive well from the pilgrim tourists alone.

Let me at them...I'll sort them out.

I say take all the Arabs out of Israel/Palestine and send them to Jordan, take all the Jews and send them to Florida and resettle the area with God's chosen people, The Kurds. :dance:

just get rid of the walls, and publicly turn against any racist stuff happening over there, after 10 or so violent years things will settle down
