Outright theft of this magnitude, in so central a place, will not be ignored, cannot ever be ignored, and you know this, michael ... you know that you cannot just shrug and say oh well we stole it now it's ours, flip the world the bird and ride off into the sunset

Excludostaat wouldn't have been such a great idea even if there had been somewhere a 'land without people' on which to set it up ... what a stupid idea, a nation-state based on ethnicity or religion, either one, europeans should have known better than that ... in the emotion of immediate second war aftermath it is possible to see how such idiocy could develop, but this many years later it is time for sober second thought of the project ... there will be jewish people long after such silly notions of racial superiority die out, they will be better off for clearing the air of such nonsense, we'll all be better off

Stop barring the right of return tomorrow, and how many palestinians would go back - surprisingly few, apparently, there have been polls done on this ... it's not the end of the world to give up a bad idea, what you lose by doing so is not worth having, and there is much to gain

I think the Israelis need good will from the Palestinians, but even more than that, they need good will from the rest of the world. Excluding most of us, the world views the Israelis as thugs stealing land from unarmed peasants. Their support is declining here as well.
