Tolerating Hate Is Not an Option

HamasEditor’s note: The keynote speech below was delivered by Brigitte Gabriel at the United Nations on September 8, 2014 during a symposium on Global Anti-Semitism: A Threat To International Peace And Security.

Ladies and Gentleman,

It is an honor and privilege to be here today speaking in defense of Jews worldwide and against the evils of anti-Semitism. As you notice, I am wearing a Star of David. This necklace was given to me during a book signing in Dallas, TX by a man who lost his beloved wife in a tragic crash. He said to me crying,

“This necklace was my wife’s favorite, she died wearing it. She considered you her hero for your stand for the Jewish people. I want you to have it. Promise me you’ll wear it.”

I couldn’t find a more befitting time to honor her, than now — wearing this Star of David as a Lebanese giving a keynote speech at the United Nation in defense of the Jewish people.

We are here to address the rise of global anti-Semitism.

Ten years ago, Natan Sharansky explained:

“[C]lassical anti-Semitism is aimed at the Jewish people or the Jewish religion, ‘new anti-Semitism’ is aimed at the Jewish state.”

Mr. Sharansky devised what he called the “3D test.” The three Ds are “demonization,” “double standards” and “delegitimization.”

“Demonization” is making bizarre, ugly claims that have no basis in reality. Comparisons between Israel and the Nazis, or assertions that Israel has been committing “genocide” against the Palestinians are examples of “demonization.” Such claims are nonsense. If Israel has been committing “genocide” against the Palestinians, then why has the population of Palestinians increased more than 600% since 1948? Israel must be the most incompetent mass murderer in the history of the world.

When Israel is held to a standard that no other country in the world would be expected to meet, that double standard is itself anti-Semitism. For instance, Israel is a vibrant democracy where human rights are protected and respected. And yet the United Nations’ so-called Human Rights Commission spends most of its time and effort investigating and condemning Israel, while they gloss over or ignore the massive and continuing human rights violations that occur in Iran, Cuba, China and many other brutal repressive autocracies.

Delegitimization of Israel is to assert that, of all the peoples in the world, only the Jewish people do not have a right to statehood. In fact, Israel’s historical, legal and moral right to exist as a Jewish State is a codified principle of international law. This codification is explicitly based on the long, continuous and well-documented connection of the Jewish People to the Land of Israel. To deny the connection of the Jewish People to the Land of Israel is anti-Semitism in its purest form.

But why should anti-Semitism matter to the rest of the world? It should — not merely because it’s morally repugnant, which it most definitely is.

The world should care about anti-Semitism because of fundamental self-preservation.

The stark truth is that the world stands at the edge of a deep, dark precipice. At the bottom lurks another Holocaust that has already begun. This time the genocide is not only against the Jews. The so-called “Islamic State” has made it abundantly clear it can be committed against non Jews. ISIS is persecuting and killing members of every religious, ethnic and nationalist community it encounters.

ISIS is slaughtering Syrians, Iraqis, Lebanese, Palestinians, Christians, Sunnis, Shiites, Alawites, Kurds, Druze, and Yazidis.

ISIS floods the Internet with stomach-churning images and videos of mass executions, severed heads and crucifixions. We see children slaughtered in front of their parents, and parents in front of their children. This viciousness is part of a calculated strategy explicitly intended to terrorize anyone and everyone who does not submit to their version of Islam.

ISIS has officially declared its intent to rule the world. Their founding document, the declaration of their caliphate, bears the modest title of [Arabic], “This Is The Promise of God.” They declare that God promised to Muslims, quote, “leadership of the world and mastership of the earth.” End quote.

Their declaration of a world-wide caliphate reveals their governing philosophy:

“By Allah, if you disbelieve in democracy, secularism, nationalism, as well as all the other garbage and ideas from the west, and rush to your religion and creed, then by Allah, you will own the earth, and the east and west will submit to you.”

Remember, ladies and gentlemen, savagery is not merely their strategy. It is an article of their faith. They commit genocide in the name of Allah.

Israel has been familiar with the concept, and the reality, of genocide in the name of Allah for a long time. The war that ISIS has declared on the world is the same as the war that Hamas has been waging against Israel for decades. The only difference, again, is focus. ISIS seeks a world-wide caliphate. Hamas is focused on the destruction of Israel.

However, their motivation, methods, and morals are the same.

In terms of brutal methods and lack of morals, ISIS has recently shot, hacked and killed its way to the top of the world’s terrorist organizations. Meanwhile Hamas has been committing mind-numbing mass atrocities for decades. They use to wrap their children in dynamite and nails, and send them to blow up Israeli buses and restaurants. They rejoiced at the death of Israeli children, and glorified the death of their own. Today they use them as human shields

I know something about children being used as human shields. In 1976 when I was 11 years old, Palestinians in South Lebanon used me and my family as human shields. They employed exactly the same technique that Hamas uses in Gaza today. They set up artillery or rocket launchers in front of my bomb shelter and fired a barrage towards Israel.   They would pack up and run as quickly as possible, leaving my family to the devastation of return fire.

Today, Hamas hides behind human shields on a much larger scale. Hamas routinely uses schools, mosques, hospitals and other civilian locations for weapons storage, missile launch sites, and other military purposes. They fire rockets and mortars from these places with the explicit intention of drawing return fire from the Israelis, hoping that will produce photogenic civilian corpses for display in the media.

Hamas and ISIS share a common motivation. They want to impose Islam. This is in the charter of Hamas as it is in ISIS’s declaration of the “caliphate.” The charter of Hamas declares that “Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it.”

The most revealing words in the Charter of Hamas are a quotation from Islamic scripture:

“The Day of Judgement will not come about until Moslems fight the Jews. The stones and trees will say O Moslems, O Abdulla, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him.” [Hadith of Sahih Muslim, BOOK 41].

But Hamas has a problem.

In Israel, Jews don’t hide behind stones or trees. They stand up and defend themselves. Israelis have learned from history that if someone repeatedly says they’re going to kill you, they mean it. A lesson the world is only now learning.

Seventy years ago the world stood by as the Jews of Europe went up the chimneys.   Today, the Jews of Israel aren’t going to go quietly to the slaughter as they sit on the front line of fighting for Western civilization. Those who seek to exterminate the Jews are not going to stop with the Jews. That should have been the lesson of the Holocaust. That must be the lesson of the rise of ISIS.

Once the intentional mass murder of innocent civilians was legitimized against Israel, it was legitimized everywhere, constrained by nothing more than the strong-held beliefs of those who would become the mass murderers.  Because the Palestinians were encouraged by most of the world to believe that the murder of innocent Israeli civilians is a legitimate tactic to advance the Palestinian nationalist cause, the Islamists believe that they may commit mass murder anywhere in the world to advance their holy cause. As a result, we suffer from a plague of Islamic terrorism, from Moscow to Madrid, from Bali to Beslan, from Nairobi to New York, authored and perfected by the Palestinians. Israel and the United States are not separate targets of Islamic terrorism. The whole world is their target.

Evil dwells when courageous men become bystanders. Lies spread when the informed become silent. Society deteriorates when apathy replaces activism. Tyranny comes when leaders become mediocre and haters become organized.

Today we are summoned to lead in our communities and our nations. We are summoned to wake up the apathetic and inspire the despaired, to silence the liars and educate the concerned, to speak tolerance instead of resentment, forgiveness instead of revenge, love instead of hate, and peace instead of war. We are here at the United Nations today because each one of us is a leader and an instrument of change with history as our final judge.

I, as the leader of ACT! for America.org, the largest national security organization in America with chapters in 11 countries around the world, am committed to do whatever possible to stand up with the Jewish people and defend them.

The civilized world must band together in solidarity to ensure that people of all faiths can live in peace and harmony and that Jews are never persecuted and victimized by barbaric, murderous ideologies ever again. That Jews can walk in any street in the world with their head held high and safe. That Israel, the Jewish state, the only democracy in the Middle East, continues to shine as a beacon of light in the darkest region in the world.

Thank you.

    This keynote speech at the UN is pure propaganda. The author has misused the offer to deliver a talk on a delicate issue and, in so doing, abuses the generosity of the UN. Approximately 25% of her talk deals with antisemitism and the other 75% attempts to demonise and dehumanise the Palestinians representated by Hamas. She also unabashedly links Hamas with ISIS so as to slander the former by the brutalities of the latter.
    Secondly, if Israel has been accused of committing atrocities against the Palestinians then it is legitimate to say so. There are several UN reports to support this claim. Furthermore, international warrants were issued for the detention of several prominent Israeli politicans and military officers to assist at the ICC in explaining why these brutalities took place. The warrants would not have been issued if there was not reasonable claim to support the accusations.
    To hide behind the “3D test” so as to avoid these points is shameful to say the least.

            The author is addressing “the rise of global anti-Semitism.” and yet she barely deals with anti-Semitism. She uses as an example ISIS and in the same breath states that “ISIS is persecuting and killing members of every religious, ethnic and nationalist community it encounters.”….anti-Semitism!!?? She uses it to slander Hamas!
            Regarding my second paragraph you obviously don’t like what I state because I have supported my comments with evidence. All that you offer is your opinion whcih falls at the first hurdle.

    • Jack Diamond

      Hamas identifies itself as part of the International Muslim Brotherhood, grandfather of all the Sunni jihadis including Al Qaeda and its offshoot ISIS, whose goal is Shari’a over the Earth, whose motto is “Allah is our objective. Jihad is our way. Dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope.” What ISIS is doing today the Brotherhood did at one time for the Al-Saud. It is Hamas that invokes the genocidal hadith about wiping out the Jews to the last one. It is Hamas that declares this a zero-sum religious war not a political conflict that can be negotiated. It is Hamas that targets Israeli civilians, hides behind Palestinian civilians and seeks propaganda value in any deaths that result from Israeli retaliation. The jihad against Israel is the same jihad we (infidels) are all facing from Islam. That’s the point.

      • Vinegar Hill

        Hamas is not linked to ISIS. You have a vivid imagination in that area just like the author of the article. It’s like me trying to argue that Israel has links with Islamic states because it is now giving intelligence to Arab nations in the fight against ISIS! Hamas is a Plaestinian organisation determined to fight for the rights of the indigenous Palestinians against the usuper state of Israel.
        Regarding the accusation of genocide maybe they got the idea from one of your heroes Jabotinsky: “A person walking somewhere on a street has the right to live only because and only to the extent that he acknowledges my right to live. But, if he wishes to kill me, to my mind he forfeits his right to exist – and this also applies to nations.” But I am sure you knew that already.

        • http://www.chaverimisrael.org Norbert Haag

          Right if Hamas wishes to kill the Jews than they have no right to exist, I , for the sake of the argument , agree.

          Now you tell me where does Israel state to kill the so called Falestinians, a made up nation that has not even a sound in their own language for the first character in its ancient name?

          The answer is nowhere.

          Where does HAMAS deny the Jews the right to live? In its very charter.

          Now taking your argument who has no right to exist?

          • Vinegar Hill

            Both sides!….or perhaps an agreement could be reached regarding the grievances of the Palestinians!!….what do you think?

          • SCREW SOCIALISM

            Honor between thieving Socialists – (National and Soviet).

        • Jack Diamond

          No they (the Islamic Resistance Movement, HAMAS) got the idea from a fellow called Muhammad in the 7th century. Who hated the Jews even more than he hated the Christians. Where they also got the idea that any territory once conquered by Islam (for instance, the Holy Land) belongs forever to Islam. Amazingly, it’s where ISIS gets all its ideas from too.

          • Vinegar Hill

            You are trying to shift the focus of the comments away from what I originally wrote. That is usually a sign of desperation and indirectly an admittance of weakness.
            I think times have changed from the 7th C to the 21st C and that Hamas, a representative body of the Palestinians, are more concerned about righting the wrongs of the loss of their land rather than what Muhammad wanted in the 7th C. They live in the present day.

          • Jack Diamond

            of course. that’s why they quote a hadith from the 7th century. That’s why they refer to “Palestine” meaning Israel as a Muslim waqf, endowment. Also from the 7th century. That’s why in the Charter they refer to themselves as a “universal movement” and one of the branches of the Brotherhood, because they are just a local Palestinian nationalist movement. “The Hamas views the other Islamic movements with respect and appreciation. Even when it differs from them in one aspect or another or on one concept or another, it agrees with them in other aspects and concepts. It reads those movements as included in the framework of striving [for the sake of Allah], as long as they hold sound intentions and abide by their devotion to Allah, and as along as their conduct remains within
            the perimeter of the Islamic circle. All the fighters of Jihad have their reward.” Indeed. By your remarks you’d think the Qur’an was just some historical document or that the example of Muhammad wasn’t the model pattern of conduct every slave of Allah should emulate. You’d think every jihad struggle wasn’t about imposing shari’a on everyone because Allah/Muhammad ordered it. What a peaceful world it might be if that were so.

      Well I would say 100% of her talk dealt with Jew hatred, which is the scientific term for the pseudo scientific term “Anti-Semitism.

      Hamas has the very same goal as ISIS or however the term de jour for these barbarians is.

      Look into their charter and stop blabbering nonsense

    • Pete

      Why should the Palestinians “vote them out”?
      What do you mean by “terrorists”?

      - Vinegar Hill • 20 days ago

      Vinegar Hill is a Hamas supporter.

      They are Palestinian of the worst sort or an infected liberal intellectual.

      • Vinegar Hill

        I support the Palestinian organisation in their struggle against the oppressions of the Israeli government. What is wrong with that?

        • Pete

          Everything.

          In 2006 if Hamas had stayed on their side of the border in Gaza, in 10 to 15 years we would have had a 2 state solution and peace.

          But Hamas could not help themselves. They had to shoot rockets. That is when they were not killing Arafat’s faction, shutting down hair dressers, or persecuting Christian Arabs.

          • Vinegar Hill

            You say that Hamas are to blame for the failure to reach a two state solution. Why do you say that? Lets look at some of the conditions insisted upon by Israel so that a peaceful solution can be attained!
            The Israelis demanded “Palestinian recognition of Israel as a Jewish state; no right of return for Palestinian refugees to their original homes; the absorption by Israel of all the ill-defined “settlement blocs” and most of occupied Arab East Jerusalem (with the exception of the small suburb of Bayt Hanina, dubbed a Palestinian “capital”); an indefinite Israeli military presence in the Jordan River Valley and, with it, continued Israeli domination of the West Bank via control of the border crossings and…..etc. etc….. Do us all a favour Pete…..shame on you!!

          • Pete

            No shame on you!

            The Right of Return is Trojan horse designed to kill every Israeli within the 19848 borders at a future date.

            Shame on you!

            You make no mention of the land Jews had to leave in the Middle East due to centuries of Arab terrorism that ramped up after 1948.

            Shame on you!

          • Vinegar Hill

            The Right of Return is enshrined in International law.
            I would appreciate a reasoned response to the other points I made in my reply.

          • SCREW SOCIALISM

            The Right of Resistance to Islamofascism is necessary in the wake of 9/11.

            It was the manner and style of the writing, that clued me that they were female.

            You have not seen them deny it.

            They said we should know, who they are from the name. There is a person, who used the post name as the title for a book and that person is female.

            However, we cannot be sure if that author and this poster is one and the same.

            The poster might simply be trolling and try to cause trouble. They might be trying to send grief the author’s way in order for this site to get discredited and for any one who is not a liberal to get discredited.

            We have the posters statements to consider and we know whether those are right or wrong. We should stick to those statement/posts and debate and/or refute those.

            My belief is that the poster is a mentally sick person.

          • Drakken

            The poster vinegar is an islamist collaborator and traitor and deserves every ounce of contempt reaped upon it.

            Yes, they are a stupid traitor or someone from overseas.

            I just made the comment that they were female, because I always try to learn who people are. Vinegar Hill just struck me as female. It was something about they way they wrote.

            I could be wrong. They could be a metrosexual male.

            If they are female, I would cut them no slack. So not to worry.

            When some people write their profession is obvious sometimes even if they do not speak of work. In normal communication or debate it is good to know who the other person is.

    • Giborei1967

      You are a proven anti-Semite with NO credibility on the issue. You stated the Israel is “committing incremental genocide against the Palestinians” Here is the proof of your disease:

      Ten years ago, Natan Sharansky explained:

      “[C]lassical anti-Semitism is aimed at the Jewish people or the Jewish religion, ‘new anti-Semitism’ is aimed at the Jewish state.”

      Mr. Sharansky devised what he called the “3D test.” The three Ds are “demonization,” “double standards” and “delegitimization.”

      “Demonization” is making bizarre, ugly claims that have no basis in reality. Comparisons between Israel and the Nazis, or assertions that Israel has been committing “genocide” against the Palestinians are examples of “demonization.” Such claims are nonsense. If Israel has been committing “genocide” against the Palestinians, then why has the population of Palestinians increased more than 600% since 1948? Israel must be the most incompetent mass murderer in the history of the world.

      When Israel is held to a standard that no other country in the world would be expected to meet, that double standard is itself anti-Semitism. For instance, Israel is a vibrant democracy where human rights are protected and respected. And yet the United Nations’ so-called Human Rights Commission spends most of its time and effort investigating and condemning Israel, while they gloss over or ignore the massive and continuing human rights violations that occur in Iran, Cuba, China and many other brutal repressive autocracies.

      Delegitimization of Israel is to assert that, of all the peoples in the world, only the Jewish people do not have a right to statehood. In fact, Israel’s historical, legal and moral right to exist as a Jewish State is a codified principle of international law. This codification is explicitly based on the long, continuous and well-documented connection of the Jewish People to the Land of Israel. To deny the connection of the Jewish People to the Land of Israel is anti-Semitism in its purest form.

      But why should anti-Semitism matter to the rest of the world? It should — not merely because it’s morally repugnant, which it most definitely is.

      The world should care about anti-Semitism because of fundamental self-preservation.

      • Vinegar Hill

        Giborei1967, I am sorry but your comment is riddle with errors therefore it is difficult to know where to start!! So how about going for “Delegitimization of Israel”? You refer to some of the following:
        Jews have a right to establish a state in Palestine
        Jews have a right to establish a “Jewish” state in Palestine
        That the Jewish state has a “right to exist,”
        That the Jewish state has a “right to defend itself”
        The Jews have a “right” to inherit all the biblical land that the Jewish God promised them.
        The Jews have a “right” to enact laws that are racially and religiously discriminatory in order to preserve the Jewish character of the state.
        Etc. etc…..
        In international law, countries are recognised as existing de facto and de jure. There is no notion that any country has a “right to exist”, that idea exists only in your head!! Furthermore, there is no notion that other countries should recognise such a right. Where do you get your ideas from?
        These rights that Israel claims to possess are not recognised internationally.
        For another example lets look at “The Declaration of the Establishment of the State of Israel” which tells the reader: “This right was recognised in the…and then it refers to three documents…Not one of the documents which appears in the “Declaration” has affirmed any rights whatsoever that Israel claims.
        I agree with you that anti-Semitism is “morally repugnant” but don’t try and defend it with international legal “rights”.

        • Giborei1967

          After ALL your babbling, the proven charge of your anti-Semitism STANDS. You stated the Israel is “committing incremental genocide against the Palestinians” Your false statement is well withing the “3D” Sharansky test for anti-Semites, as described verbatum in the article:

          Mr. Sharansky devised what he called the “3D test.” The three Ds are “demonization,” “double standards” and “delegitimization.”

          “Demonization” is making bizarre, ugly claims that have no basis in reality. Comparisons between Israel and the Nazis, or assertions that Israel has been committing “genocide” against the Palestinians are examples of “demonization.” Such claims are nonsense. If Israel has been committing “genocide” against the Palestinians, then why has the population of Palestinians increased more than 600% since 1948?

    Brigitte Gabriel is a notorious islamophobe. She needs to check herself if she is worried about haters.

    • wileyvet

      Piss off you leftist wanker. The whole term Islamophobe was made from whole cloth by the IIIT, a MB organization from northern Virginia, back in the nineties, and came to prominence after 9/11. Its sole purpose is to be used to deflect criticism if not outright silencing of same criticism of Islam. Wake up or shut up loser.

    • Pete

      Brigitte grew up in Lebanon in the early part of her life and then she was ethnically cleansed.

      Meanwhile you are relative safe cocooned as you are protected by brave men and women in the U.S. military (many of them from the south who you consider stupid and immoral). You cast aspersions from the peanut gallery.

          William is the same type of beta male as Pajama boy. Except Pajama boy is or was more youthful so people will cut him some slack maybe.

          William has no such hope.

          William is so hopeless that if you had to fight an “alien” or a “predator” and had a choice of William or an ISIS fanatic, your choose the ISIS fanatic. William is that useless and that stupid. That a person would make such a choice says a lot about William.

      You know what the issue with enlightened philoislamists is?

      You spite empty word shells instead of facts.

      She doesn’t fear Islam (Islamophobe) but knows and therefore hates it as everybody that knows it and is not a Muslim.

      You, on the other hand, are a brainless parrot of empty phrases, like “Islam is a religion of peace”. You are a classical example of a brainless and spineless intellectual and a shame for any science and pseudoscience including the pseudo science of comparable religions.

      You come up with one, one single event that shows she is a hater. You never will find it.

      Empty wordshells of a, so far, useless intellectual.

        No, she fears Islam. A bona-fide islamophobe.

      A phobia is an irrational fear of something. If you took the time to read about her background and childhood, you’d see how she saw and lived the raw and naked hatred of Jews and Christians in her native lebanon.

    Of course you can tolerate hate.

    Battered women often do it.

    Usually does not end well.

    Wise people do no not accuse liberals of being intelligent.

    • Vinegar Hill

      That is a disgustingly insensitive sexist comment.

      • Pete

        Did I saw that people should tolerate hate? NO!

        Did I say battered women should tolerate hate or being beaten? NO!

        I just made an observation that often they do. Facts back me up on that observation.

        I also said it did not end well and that is true in a significant number of cases.

        • Vinegar Hill

          Why do they “tolerate hate”? Your response suggests that you are incapable of putting your prejudice aside and are unable to empathise with others.

          • Pete

            The women tolerate beating because it is an evolutionary advantage. Ponder that one.

          • Vinegar Hill

            You need professional help.

          • Pete

            It is the other way around.

            Some women do stick with men who beat them. That is a fact.

            1) Maybe the stick around out of fear. That is a big reason.

            2) Maybe the reason is oxycontin and other than the influence of oxycontin, they would make the correct decision and leave the abuser. People have posited this as a reason for something that is otherwise inexplicable.

            3) Maybe the reason is that the abuser carries the warrior gene, MAOA gene, and in a might makes right world they choose to remain after making a conscious or unconscious decision.

            Now, I do not condone it, but recognize that #3 might be true. Recognizing a fact or positing something does not mean a person condones it. If you want to pretend that it does, go right ahead.

          • Pete

            You need a brain more than the scarecrow did.

        I am surprised that you could not interpret my remarks correctly. 5 or more people did.

        If you were any English major or something similar , you would have.

        I think you are a nonnative speaker.

        Further, I think you are a woman.

        That analysis is just based on your writing.

        Now, IF we started cracking, what would we find?

        • Vinegar Hill

          “Of course you can tolerate hate.Battered women often do it”
          One does not have to be an “English major” to see that you lack sensitivity and have little respect for situations which are out of your domain.

        • Vinegar Hill

          I think you are a loser. Did you read the original comment that I replied to. From what you have written, I think not.

          • Giborei1967

            You REMAIN a proven anti-Semite dirt bag.

      • Pete

        You may be utterly stupid but I will try one more time.

        I like to draw conclusion about group dynamics or dynamics between groups by looking at interpersonal dynamics.

        Everyone has a lifetime of interpersonal interactions. so we can relate to it.

        So I take an example of interpersonal relationships say bullying or bad relationships and than I scale it up. That is fraught with some peril especially if you believe that quantity has a quality all its’ own. Think threshold ( critical mass) or interactions between different variables. Be that as it may I think scaling (like in geometry or computer networks) interpersonal examples is useful at times.

        Now the author of the article wrote “Tolerating Hate Is Not an Option”

        I agree it should not be an option.

        What I am pointing out is that it is an option, because we see interpersonal examples of people tolerating bad relationships all the time.

        People should not do this but history and personal experience tells us that they do.

        Now you can keep it up. You either misinterpreted my original post in which case there was a communications failure. That would be my fault, your fault or both. I tend to think that as a Leftist you did not get your way in convincing people to your way of thinking is you went into auto-spew.

        Whatever, keep it up and people will not believe one thing you say.

        Do get well.

    The palestinians did not start the Six Day War. Furthermore the acquisition of territory in this manner is illegal.

      Nope, they did not. Time to give up the US southwest, Puerto Rico, Guam, etc….In fact, that means that the Muslims will have to give back North Africa and Constantinople since they took it by conquest from the Christian population there which is what triggered the Crusades. But you either choose to ignore or remain ignorant of the facts.
      I do agree the Israelis should give the PA everything but the right of return. If by some odd chance you are right….peace. In my estimation, nothing will change except now Israel will have complete justification to respond in kind to the return address that a Palestinian state provides.
