Re: Had the Arab countries accepted the UN's 1947 vote, there would be a Palestinian state today. They didn't, and to the victor goes the spoils of war. It's that simple.

So simple, isn't it! But you fail to notice that a tiny "poison pill" was dropped into "the spoils of war", namely, the Israelization of America... That is, the spoils of war might eventually turn into the spoiling of the US democracy --and civil war (again). That's the lesson Americans missed to learn from the French ordeal in Algeria:

There's never been a Palestinian state thanks to the Israelis but that was not the intent of the UN in 1947.

Come on man, the UN acknowledged Israel's right to exist in 1947 (although all the Arab neighbors voted 'no'), and then the Arabs all invaded and attacked Israel. Hard to set up a Palestinian State when the land where it is supposed to be is being used to invade the new Israeli state.


That was 50 years ago.

The Arabs lost the war, and the rest is history. Had the Arab countries accepted the UN's 1947 vote, there would be a Palestinian state today. They didn't, and to the victor goes the spoils of war. It's that simple.

Well then, why doesn't Israel annex the WB and Gaza and get it over with?
