Remember that in 1993 the PLO had agreed to a 2 state solution, but Israeli terrorists massacred Palestinian civilians in Hebron and then Israeli terrorists killed their own Prime Minister.

Netanyahu opposes the 2 state solution and Israelis keep voting him and his supporters in.

Maybe ask Bibi why he rejects a 2 state solution before endorsing a 2 state solution?

Hmm not sure what you're referring exactly in that article... maybe this (serious question)?

Just a few weeks ago, he said that he must remain in power. Why? In order to prevent a Palestinian state. Only he, so he said, can do that.

So this became his main electoral campaign slogan: I will prevent a Palestinian state.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Britain will consider recognising a Palestinian state as part of concerted efforts to bring about an “irreversible” peace settlement, the foreign secretary, David Cameron, has said.

In what would mark a landmark diplomatic moment, he said the move would help to bring about a two-state solution – currently facing trenchant opposition from the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu.

An attack by Iran-backed militia in Jordan over the weekend that killed three US troops and left dozens injured has stoked fresh fears of a western confrontation with Tehran.

The UK, the US and other allies been trying to police the Red Sea after the Houthis, another Iran-backed rebel group, based in Yemen, began targeting commercial shipping on the vital global trade route in recent months.

A British-linked oil tanker went up in flames after a strike claimed by the Yemen-based group on Friday, before a further attack on HMS Diamond, a Royal Navy destroyer stationed in the Red Sea, was repelled.

Speaking before his return to the Middle East, Cameron said: “The Houthis continue to attack ships in the Red Sea, risking lives, delaying vital aid getting to the Yemeni people and disrupting global trade.

Instead of being like: the Eroupean Jew who gone through the Holocaust now portected in England and can live happily ever after. They shipped them to Palestinian. The UK then got bombed by Zainoist groups. Left the colony. Recognized Israel. Now they are thinking of recognizing Palestine?

They can go fuck themselves.
