At the start of the current conflict I thought a 2-state solution might be possible. Even if Israel giving up a reasonable amount of land had to be part of the deal.So do YOU think that a 2-state solution is acceptable from an Israeli point of view when an Arab state - in this case Gaza - becomes a base for terror attacks on Israel???!
Even if you're stupid enough to deflect the massive evidence on 7 October, you still have the incessant rocket attacks.
I'm Israeli, I'm saying that the 2-state experiment gets my people killed. So it's now off the table.
I now have to agree that a 2 state solution is unacceptable. Primarily because the Palestinians have shown time and time again they cannot be trusted.
IN 2005 Israel withdrew from Gaza. The Palestinians then had a chance to modernize and build a prosperous country, especially with the billions of dollars they received in foreign aid and donations. Well. we all know where the bulk of that money went. Instead of directly benefiting the citizens of Gaza it went to enrich the leaders of Hamas, build a network of tunnels under Gaza, and buy weapons to be used against Israel.
Even in the most recent ceasefire Hamas reneged on the hostage deal, which scuttled any extension of the ceasefire. As the old saying goes "Fool Israel once, shame on the Palestinians. Fool Israel 7 times, shame on Israel!"
The only solution to this, if it is even possible, is to cripple Hamas so badly that it will be a very long time before they will consider attacking Israel again.
