State Department Calls Palestinian Authority ‘Antisemitic’

[whatthehey]

12. True. Never said they did. Nor Palestinian terrorism prejudice against Arabs of course

I'm just not denying either the Israeli government's heavy hand and provocation, or the terrorism of the Palestinian governing authorities that both cause and are caused by the above.

If I could solve the Middle East peace process, I would have done it by now*, but it's surely looking like somebody has to unilaterally back off and risk (and a very very high risk at that) being pummelled in return, but nobody, possibly pragmatically, has any interest in doing so. It's heard to sketch out negotiations where one side says you should not exist and the other says you should not matter as people.







*Actually I, indeed anyone, could, if it weren't for that pesky bullshit about divine promises and idiots taking them seriously. For example if all the Jewish people wanted was a peaceful and secure homeland, I doubt any POTUS and Congress would balk about carving out about a tenth of topographically similar and largely empty Utah in return for 8 million educated and productive taxpayers given a free pass on free movement of residency between the states. Hell we could even keep the Zion name then. And if the Palestinians just wanted contiguous and connected territory, it could be easily cut out of an area that does not include sites where medieval chieftains pretended to teleport. But no, it's back to that my god has a bigger ineffable wang than your god crap, even though they are the same god in the first place.
