Mr Pipes, I have a question - how do you politically define victory?Reader comment on item: Pushing for an Israeli Victory Is the Only Way to End the Conflict with the Palestinians Submitted by Dong (Canada), Dec 16, 2018 at 22:16 1. Does it include the annexation of West Bank (or Judea and Samaria to you)? 2. If yes to #1, how about the Palestinians living on them? Israeli citizenship for them? 3. I assume that you completely leave Gaza out of all this, as the statelet has 2m Arabs, and Israel cannot continue as a de facto/de jure Jewish state with so many Palestinians. What is your vision for Gaza? Egyptian annexation? PS. I imagine PM Netanyahu has not made any of his positions regarding Palestinians clear & public, given the probable backlash. He must surely agree with you to a great extent. Note: Opinions expressed in comments are those of the authors alone and not necessarily those of Daniel Pipes. Original writing only, please.

For complete regulations, see the "Guidelines for Reader Comments". Daniel Pipes replies: I define victory as imposing one's will on the enemy. As I have repeatedly indicated, the Israel Victory Project does not delve into the specifics of a Palestinian-Israeli resolution. We say that whatever your preferred outcome, it's more likely to happen once the Palestinians accept Israel as the Jewish state. Reader comments (34) on this item
