| Mr Khan said: It's a simple matter that the Palestinians desire a free state, therefore they should get one. It's not about historical claims which we cannot enforce unless we resort to barbarism (like Mr. Bubbles happy fun "They're lucky they didn't blow up the dome of the rock" claim), it's about the Palestinians getting what they as a people want. The harder question is who defines "people," mostly in right-of-return matters The problem being Israel has a very welcoming immigration policy for Jews, so similar rights should be given to Palestinians expelled before, and land enough given that would allow the Palestinians to return. Nominally the territories should at least be homogenous too, which is why i would support moving the settlers away from their various pockets and into one tract of land more fairly distributed (for their numbers, the settlers own disproportionately too much land), as i can't foresee any scenario that wouldn't involve Israel's apartheid-esque controls over the West Bank in the name of "keeping the settlers safe." |
Well... they are lucky Israel didn't blow up the dome of the rock.
If the dome of the rock was somewhere else you can gurantee they would of rebuilt the Temple of Solomon. Had the reverse been true... I doubt you'd be seeing any Jewish holy site remaining that was in the way of reclaiming a holy site.
Not that it has anything to do with the negotiations.
As for it being homogenous....
For it to be one strip of land.... the land swaps would nearly have to involve the ENTIRITY of Gaza and then would cut israel in half... have you ever seen the pre 1967 borders?
Complete with major cities BEFORE the settlers, to point out it's not the settlers they are protecting. When Hamas fires rockets... they don't fire them at settlers. They fire them at cities with what is within Israel.
I mean... what do you do their? Trade ALL of Gaza for a bunch of land north leading to Lake tiberus.
