Topic	How would you solve the Israel / Palestine conflict?

What does it matter what Palestinians think about who is allowed to be part of Israel? The only thing that matters to this conflict is that those Palestinians themselves are not willing to be part of Israel. What they feel about other people is irrelevant to finding a solution beyond "A joint government with both of them being in charge of holy sites is impossible" The stated goal of Hamas - supported by a majority of the populace as per polling data - is that they want to expel the occupiers of Palestine and turn it into an Islamist state. They conveniently give their proposed borders for their version of Palestine which just so happens to be Israel-shaped. Go figure. videospirit posted... Except it would be a completely different kind of conflict. If, once they've been given a state of their own, they want to go to war with Israel, Israel would be completely justified in returning fire. The current conflict is a resistance movement against an apartheid state. The end goal desired by that resistance movement is hard to empathize with, but a resistance movement is completely justified. Distinction without a difference. Israel is already justified in returning fire. --- There are four lights. <cite>willythemailboy posted [p:976877152] in How would ...
