Re: Good for Israel
""palestinian soil" would include all Israel, according to Palestinians."
according to some Palestinians, as well as some Israelires.
"they've had diplomatic relations for some time
btw when one independent state encourages rocket strikes over the border into another independent state, what do you call that?"
That would be called war. But Israel has yet to recognise the Palestinian state, and in the process they can trim some ground of it. It's a strategy Chris.
"Arab-Israelis hold seats in the Knesset. I hear the same lament from "oppressed" Flemish in your country--does that mean it must be true?"
They have to serve in the military longer though, just to name something.
"There is no point in a peace process. The peace process is the biggest farce since the Berlin wall fell down. Any economic growth by Palestine will be thrown into war with Israel. I say that because they got hundreds of millions at Oslo and threw it into war with Israel. They got their state and they started looting their own people. It's not Israel that prevents an Arab from owning hotels in Gaza. The PA views such people as targets for extortion. The PA, like Russia, is an organized crime ring with embassies."
Bollocks. It was always the Israelites who suspended the peace proces with building new settlements.
Labeling them all inhuman terrorists is a bit silly, or even racist.
"Would you prefer they fight rockets with rockets, not an embargo?"
They do that once in a while. When the Palestinians lob a few spitwads too much over those concrete walls, they bombard whatever building's still standing up (not to mention a hospital!) and drop enough coloured clusterbombs to mutilate children. Do not pretend cruelty is a Palestinian monopoly. What's needed is a true intention of peace. The Israelis aren't interested in it. They just keep them under their thumb and slowly build more settlements.
