zbigy will be long dead by then.

The article was written by some guy named Wallerstein. Zbigy is just one of the letter writers.

His bias against israel has been apparent since jimmy carter days and I am sure Jews will take note of who is candidate is for President.

?? What are you talking about?

Maybe i am just too cynical but i just cant see israelis and arabs living in one state after 70 years of war. They hate each other.

Yeah sure, I think the author's point is that outsiders, like myself, say the one state solution sounds best.....to us. The article says that none of the concerned parties want that, just the world public opinion is heading that way. I don't know if he has any basis for making the claim that world public opinion is heading that way - it doesn't seem so to me.

I just thought it interesting to hear someone saying my Pasrael idea is the way things are heading. He's probably wrong in his assessment of the way global opinion is heading, but who cares!?

Two state needs to work and I do buy the sense of urgency that the group has.

I'm of the opinion that 3 states make a lot more sense. Israel is not going to allow a plane to fly from Gaza to the West Bank for the next 100 years, why force the two geographic regions of Gaza and the WB to combine? Better to make them compete and thereby raise living standards.
