We agree that Israel exists, and has a right to exist. I believe they must pull back out of all Occupied areas, per UN resolutions.
Look, you can't expect Iraq to go by UN resolutions, and give Israel a pass on it.
Also, if we expect Iran and other Arab countries to never develop nuclear weapons, it is not fair to allow Israel with our help to have over 200 weapons, is it? Do they need them for deterrence? Yes. Is it fair to deny every other regime in the region any at all if Israel has them? Probably not.
Israel pulling out of Gaza is a good start. They must pull out of Palestinian lands also, and give them a contiguous state.
If they want to survive this century, they must cooperate with the US and the UN, make peace with their neighbors, and cooperate economically. They cannot win a protracted continuing war against all the countries surrounding them - so it is the only way. |
