History. 2 hours ago, eyeball said: Deal with it, I'm quite certain this starting position will be no different than Israel's negotiators. What do you mean deal with it? As we have pointed out to you many times already... Israel has the power right now to literally carpet bomb everyone in Palestine, line up their tanks, and kill everyone if they wanted to. They don't. They left Gaza to them and look what they did with it? They turned it into a terrorist hell hole. If Palestinians had the same power as Israel, they would wipe them all out. I am quite certain you are a coward who won't just admit what you support here. 2 hours ago, eyeball said: The same homes and lands that Israel claims belongs to them. Which ones? You have no ability to defend your assertions. You just run from them. 2 hours ago, eyeball said: That's right, there'll be no end to the resistance until Israel stops the subjugation. Then everyone sits down and starts drawing a new map. To be sure though I think it's very very unlikely these two things will happen in our lifetimes. Yet again, you refuse to define what subjugation. You have no response if Palestine wants the whole map. 2 hours ago, eyeball said: I don't have to, the actions of Zionist terrorists and the IDF they morphed into speak far far more eloquently to what it was about. Run away! Quote

I'm quite certain it'll be decades before anyone reaches the point where borders will be drawn. There's a better chance the world will still be dealing with this mess centuries from now. Good job our grandfathers did eh? 1400 years and counting. Probably not going to get solved peacefully soon.

Problem is everyone picks one point in time to define who/what is the "legitimate" nation/creed of Israel/Palestine. It is not a "simple" problem. Quote

Staying within living memory is the only path forward. Those arent goal posts that's just the fact of how long Muslims, Jews, and Christians have been fighting each other over the Holy Land. What you're saying is that in 30 years nobody can complain about their land being stolen. The indigenous people here as well. The tactic for Israel would just be to wait it out. The solution is a 2-state one as you've said, and obeying international law. The Arabs didn't accept that and attacked Israel, then Israel used that opportunity to take more than their legal share that was authorized for them.

Sure they can given the biggest change since biblical times - secular jurisprudence. 17 minutes ago, Moonlight Graham said: The indigenous people here as well. Interestingly enough and despite the talk about colonialism some First Nations look at the creation of Israel based on the several thousand year old biblical history as the gold standard for land claims. 23 minutes ago, Moonlight Graham said: The tactic for Israel would just be to wait it out. And resign themselves to either permanently subjugating Palestinians or wiping them from the face of the planet? 25 minutes ago, Moonlight Graham said: The solution is a 2-state one as you've said, and obeying international law. The Arabs didn't accept that and attacked Israel, then Israel used that opportunity to take more than their legal share that was authorized for them. You're saying international law authorised things like the Deir Yassin Massacre? It's no wonder Arab countries felt compelled to try and stop this disaster from unfolding and spreading.
