Also do you support a 2 state solution wombat? literally what are you gonna do with these people?
There's a big difference between "want" and "can't". I'd like a two state solution, Israelis want a two state solution, but there can't be a two state solution until the Palestinians demonstrate that not only are they capable of governing themselves responsibly, but that they'd actually abide by any form of peace agreement. Throw in their utter inability to reign in militant extremism, and the fact that the West Bank would immediately become a launch pad for Syrian imported rockets, and they "can't" have their own state now. The decision to withdraw from Gaza was probably the dumbest move Israel has made in recent years in terms of it's own security-- they would have to have fucking Down's to do the same with the West Bank, except the result would be even worse because it borders the rest of the middle east.
Considering precedence in Gaza and the rest of the middle east, can you deny the fact that if Israel withdrew from the West Bank, rockets would start raining down the next day?
they can't be apart of israel and they can't have their own state, what do people act like when they think they have no hope or future?
Tell me, were you such a great advocate of the Palestinian people when they had zero hope or future when they were under the crushing boot of Jordanian rule? If you define "hope and future" purely by having your own country, then they haven't had "hope or future" for countless generations, yet suddenly it's Israel's fault? In any case, if I was a Palestinian, I would realize that firing crappy rockets and kidnapping kids against an obviously superior armed force would be very much counterproductive to my "hope and future". After I've poked the giant Grizzly for the 1000th time with my sharpened stick to little avail, only to be met with a bear claw to the face each time, I'd probably realize that was not helping my "hope and future". I would definitely realize that firing rockets at a nuclear plant within fallout distance of where I live is definitely against my "hope and future", LMAO. Maybe using methods of peace against a superior force might be effective? Nah, that's never worked before right?..
If I was a Palestinian in Gaza, I elected for a future whose mandate calls for the destruction of Israel. I guess that's my "Hope and Future", and I guess I probably should have thought about the possibility of reprisal when I called for the elimination of another country by force. Any lack of hope is squarely on my head. If I lived in the West Bank, I'd recognize the reality that if we don't fire crappy rockets at Israel and elect a terrorist government, we get peace and an improving economy, and derive hope from that and start demonstrating that we can effectively manage the government and stop radical groups from importing bombs. If the West Bank can get to a point where it won't be another Gaza situation, there will be a two state solution. However, considering the current state of radical Islam, I just don't see that as happening anytime soon.
And Fanaskin, please stop with the BS. You know full well the Pallies intentionally fire weapons from mosques/schools and the Israelis do their best to avoid firing on them. There are a gazillion videos on Youtube that evidence both. Fuck, that video I linked earlier where the Hama spokesperson calls on citizens to act as human shields? He specifically states that it is an effective tactic because the Israelis avoid firing on civilians.
