Two states not a magic solution, says J Street head [View all]
WASHINGTON Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump do not necessarily have to utter the words two-state solution or Palestinian state during Wednesdays scheduled White House meeting in order to send out a pro-peace message, the head of the dovish lobbying group J-Street said Tuesday.
These words are not magical, Jeremy Ben-Ami said. The end result that J Street favors is that the State of Israel should have borders and that those borders should be recognized by its neighbors and by the world.
In a sense, the only state were really interested in is the State of Israel, he said.
We do believe that there should be a Palestinian state and relations between the State of Israel and all the states around it, but it is not absolutely necessary for Trump and Netanyahu to pledge allegiance to a two-state solution, he added.

The reality of the situation is finally sinking in at J-street.
The only workable solution at this point is a Jordanian protectorate for the Palestinians.
