Muslim or Islamist Winter - In Palestine and Israel

Submitted by Robert (United States), Oct 26, 2015 at 03:39

Notable Israeli historian Shlomo Avuneri's most current view informs us that many who view the so-called "Two-State Solution" fror Israel and Palestine are essentially delusional - that close inspection of the positions rxpressed by Palestinians shows that Israel is an "illegitimate state:

"With No Solution in Sight: Between Two National Movements"

That is further illustrated by the views expressed by Arabs in Palestine and Israel:

"Israel's Irresponsible Arabs"

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/10/26/opinion/israels-irresponsible-arabs.html

Without "ethnic cleansing" it appears that Palestinians themselves are setting the conditions for their "expulsion," "immigration," "migration" into Europe, or Jordan, or in the near future, "Greater Syria" - the latter, of course, onlt after "the dust settles."

I am surprised that there is "disconnect" bewteen Palestinian Arabs, as they "get along" with Israelis (with knives, of course), and how all the rest of the Arab populations "get along" with one another in the Islamic State, inside and outside, the ancient Arab homelands of Damascus and Bagdhad, Mecca and Medina. And, of course, we also now have the participation of the Muslim Persian Empire of Iran based in Tehran!

It really appears that the Arab Spring has caused the end of the Two-State Solution. And with so many Arabs flooding Europe, it looks like the preoccupation with the particular Palestinian Arab will come to a close - if not in Word, than at least by Deed.
