With revolutionary fervor sweeping the Middle East, Israel is under mounting pressure to make a far-reaching offer to the Palestinians or face a United Nations vote welcoming the State of Palestine as a member whose territory includes all of the West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem

im pretty glad this is happening, though i have a hard time seeing this going 100% peacefully or putting an end to violence on both sides

Don't put much stock in the NYTimes.

im not really sure what point you're trying to make with that....
the infallible jpost talks about it too....

As expectations increase that the Palestinians will seek a UN resolution on the issue this September, Ross disparaged the idea as unhelpful not only to the overall diplomatic environment, but to advancing the Palestinians’ own goals.

'US firmly opposed to PA seeking UN statehood declaration'

i'm sure that article fits very well with your viewpoint but i'm not sure how where it comes from affects whether or not it's happening...

I'm saying, I don't think it's going to happen.

Hezbollah is fixing to get their asses handed to them in Lebanon and that is going to sideline everything.....

I think Israel and Palestine will eventually work things out, they DO work together now. Problem standing in the way for now, is Hamas and other known terror organizations that refuse to recognize Israel. Soon, the Palestinians and Israelis will agree on a cession, but not in the next few months in my opinion. There are some terrorist that have to be killed and removed first, that are blocking the progress.

As much as I would like to see this happen, it won't. We will veto it, just like we do every single time anything comes up that isn't favorable to Israel. We like to support terrorists when they side with us.

ROFL, coming from the person who can only cite the JPost, the biggest Israeli propaganda source you can find. Rich.

Cool, but that has nothing to do with what I said. My point was that it is rich for you, of all people, to complain about a source and saying someone shouldn't "put much stock" into it when you go all-in on a propaganda outfit. The hypocrisy is comical, that's all.

One-minded? I guess you could say that. I support freedom and equality for all, and I will not compromise on that. That's why I support the Palestinians, the Libyan rebels, those who fought to end apartheid in South Africa, etc. Prejudiced, however? I think not, and you should look in the mirror before accusing people of that. You are the one who sees no problem imprisoning 1.5 million men, women, and children under a punishing blockade. You are the one supporting the apartheid Israeli government and their racism, not me.

But i thought you said in the past you dont take sides. At least now your agneda is clear for future conversations.

At least now we know when you bitch about jpost we know the real reason behind it.

Regardless of his personal opinions regarding Israel and Palestinians, those opinions don't change the fact that JPost is nothing more than a propaganda machine for an extremist segment of Israel.
