Such BS...........Israel offered much less than what was first proposed in the 40s.

Why would you expect them, or anyone in their position, to offer as much as was offered (not by Israel but by the countries imposing the partision plan) in the 40s.


Because there was a dispute between the Zionists and the Palestinians in the 30s. While the dispute was never settled to the satisfaction of either side, it was agreed that trans Jordan would be split between Israel and Palestine in a particular way.When Israel became a separate nation, she honored those boundaries established prior to her independence. Subsequently, Israel annexed the WB, Gaza, the Sinai and the Golan Hts during a war not with the Palestinians but with her neighbors. That war has been over for decades and she's returned the Sinai to Egypt. Why should she withhold the Palestinians' land from them and why shouldn't she honor the original boundaries?


What Israel doesn't understand is that there will never be peace until they give the Palestinians what they want.

I hope not because if it is true there will never be peace unless one side destroys the other.


Sad but true!
