The NO State Solution

Here is what The Forward thinks about Israel's response to the UN SC resolution:

If prospects for a future two-state solution continue to fade - amidst new counterproductive steps promoted by Israel’s right-wing lawmakers seizing an opportunity in the wake of UNSCR 2334 - the response could be a renewal of Palestinian violence.

Get real, people. There never was a "two-state solution".

Here's the reality:

  • In spite of this latest storm in a teacup, the US still supports Israel with billions of dollars and lots of advanced munitions.
  • Since Israel has a US sponsored nuclear arsenal, she thinks she can do whatever she wants. And she's right.
  • Netanyahu would be HAPPY if there were a renewal of Palestinian violence, as it would give him a pretext to implement a "final solution to the Palestinian problem".
  • And Trump apparently is behind him 100%.

John Kerry is right, but he doesn't go far enough. Israel never wanted "peace", not in the sense that word is understood by most people. Their idea of peace is what they learned from the Romans long ago, and which has been corroborated by their sponsor the US:

They rob, kill, and plunder all under the deceiving name of a "peace process". They make a desert and call it peace. [with apologies to Tacitus]
