I think If Israel wants to survive, it needs to decide on one state, or two. If one state, then it`ll be a majority Arab state. That`s the reality. Without a viable Palestine next to Israel, there won`t be a Jewish & democratic Israel within a few years.
Clinton had a talk with The Foreign Lobby AIPAC and notably did not pull her punches on the issue when she addressed the pro-Israel group, warning that whether Israelis like it or not, “the status quo” is not sustainable. The drawing of such lines by the administration has been noticed in the Middle East.
but That’s the whole mid-east issue since 1967. Either annex or give back the land. They don’t want to annex because of an arab majority. They don’t want to give back the land because God says its theirs. So instead you have millions of occupied Palestinians with no freedom, and an endless conflict until Israel steps up to the plate and makes some compromise s/decisions.
Israeli policies have transcended personal affront and have been an embarrassment to American officials ” their only true friends” and are causing the United States real pain beyond the Arab-Israeli arena.
Sometimes true friends are the ones who tell you the truth
