As hard as it is to believe, Secretary of State Antony Blinken was absolutely serious when he recently called yet again for the creation of a Palestinian state and promised that it would be the magic solution that would finally bring peace to the region. Get in line, Mr. Blinken. You’re only about the ten millionth person to make this confident recommendation, and to demonstrate that you haven’t learned the most basic and obvious lessons from what has happened to Israel ever since the Arabs rejected the first offer to create a Palestinian state back in 1947.
The Jewish Press reported Wednesday that Blinken said at a press conference about his latest trip to Israel: “We continue to discuss how to build a more durable peace and security for Israel within the region. As I told the prime minister, every partner that I met on this trip said that they’re ready to support a lasting solution that ends the long-running cycle of violence and ensures Israel’s security. But they underscored that this can only come through a regional approach that includes a pathway to a Palestinian state.”
Well, great. There’s just one problem: This “lasting solution” has been offered to the Palestinians numerous times, and they have always rejected it. Not only has it never worked, but it never will work, as it fails to take note of one of the most important elements of the conflict.
Oblivious to these facts, Blinken plowed on: “In today’s meetings I was also crystal clear: Palestinian civilians must be able to return home as soon as conditions allow. They must not be pressed to leave Gaza. As I told the prime minister, the United States unequivocally rejects any proposals advocating for the resettlement of Palestinians outside of Gaza, and the prime minister reaffirmed to me today that this is not the policy of Israel’s government.” As far as Blinken was concerned, that left the Palestinian state as the only other option: “To make this possible, Israel must be a partner to Palestinian leaders who are willing to lead their people in living side by side in peace with Israel and as neighbors. And Israel must stop taking steps that undercut Palestinians’ ability to govern themselves effectively.”
Blinken didn’t explain what “steps” Israel has taken to “undercut Palestinians’ ability to govern themselves effectively.” Mahmoud Abbas has done that well enough by himself; he is now 88 years old, and is in the eighteenth year of his four-year term as president of the Palestinian Authority. Then there are the Hamas top dogs Ismail Haniyeh, Khaled Mashal, and Mousa Abu Marzouk, who have become billionaires by siphoning off aid money the witless Western left has sent to the Palestinians.
Even worse, which Palestinian leaders are “are willing to lead their people in living side by side in peace with Israel and as neighbors”? Is there even one? Blinken didn’t offer any names, and if he had been asked, he wouldn’t have been able to come up with one unless he had resorted to lying. Arab intransigence has been clear from the beginning of the conflict: back on November 29, 1947, the UN General Assembly passed Resolution 181, calling for the creation of an Arab state and a Jewish state in Palestine. The Arabs had rejected it immediately. Neither Biden nor Blinken, nor anyone else who still advances the “two-state solution” and Resolution 181 as the only path to peace for both Israelis and Palestinians, ever seems to ponder why so many years have gone by since Resolution 181 was originally passed without ever being implemented even for a single day. They don’t seem to regard the seven decades of its not being in force as any indication that maybe it isn’t the path to peace after all. There has been no indictment of its status as the “lasting solution that ends the long-running cycle of violence and ensures Israel’s security.”
What Biden, Blinken, and the rest of the foreign policy establishment fail to realize, or refuse to realize, is that the UN partition plan failed for one reason only: The Muslim Arabs of Palestine and the surrounding Arab countries will never accept a Jewish state, even if it were the size of a postage stamp. As The Palestinian Delusion shows, that refusal is rooted in Islamic concepts and commands, most notably the Qur’anic command to “drive out those who drove you out” (2:191) and its underlying assumption that any land that has been ruled by the Muslims at any time belongs to the Muslims forever and can never be ruled by anyone else. If a Palestinian state ever were established, it would quickly become a jihad terror base, as did Gaza when the Israelis withdrew from it.
Those who tout the two-state solution today seem to think that somehow, in the decades since the tumultuous period following the end of World War II, this situation has changed. But it has not, and it will not. Islam is still Islam. Its Qur’an has not changed; neither has its theology. The imperatives that led the Muslim Arabs to reject a two-state solution in 1947, and to go to war to destroy the nascent Jewish state in 1948, still exist and are still believed by millions of Muslims worldwide. It is only by ignoring this, or by remaining in blissful willful ignorance of it, that diplomats and kings and presidents and pretend presidents such as Old Joe Biden could ever have thought that a negotiated agreement can be hit upon that would enable Israelis and Palestinians to lay down their arms and live side by side in peace.
That is not to say that the Israeli-Palestinian problem cannot be managed such that there is a minimum of bloodshed on both sides. But to think that a peace accord can be hit upon that will induce Muslims in the Middle East and around the world to give up Islam’s doctrines of jihad, its deeply rooted anti-Semitism, and its supremacist political ideology is a position that could only be held by the willfully ignorant and historically uninformed. Of course, they’re the people running Washington.
It’s alot like when Buddhist were demonized for defending themselves against muslims. Muslims are always the victims. No matter HOW false their narrative is. The leftist media are always on the side of evil.
I love this site because our media is worse than Orwell could even imagine. May God bless you for that!
Someone still trying to fit a round peg in a square hole
There is no logic here. There is no love of humanity. Only hatred of Jews and the God of Israel. ‘Two States’ is euphemism for a war plan to annihilate Israel.
The best way to solve the problem is just like fighting a fire – take away the fuel source. No money no war. Broke they cannot buy weapons.
Defund the terrorists and punish any nation that tries
You need to defund the UN to defund Palestinians their UNRWA gives billions to them and it grows every year because they are corrupt.
You are correct! And a good place to start would be the US cutting funds. The country can’t afford it anyway!
I think it was Ben Shapiro the other day who quipped, “Gaza has effectively been an experimental Palestinian state since 2006, and the world has witnessed how they governed it. By stealing billions from their own citizens and building tunnels and weapons to kill their neighbors” (paraphrased)
But the “dream” lives on regardless of reality.
From the beginning, Blinken showed his lack of ethics when he coordinated the LIES of the 51 former US intelligence managers asserting Hunter’s laptop was Russian collusion. That put him in close proximity to the sociopathic liar Hillary. Bottom line, Blinky destroyed any chance of being viewed with honest and a good set of ethical rules.
Fire him! He reflects lies, weakness, and corruption.
And what’s worse, he’s Jewish and still doesn’t get it, or is so bound to his ideology that he can’t see it.
Blinken cannot be wrong. He is after all jewish and therefore the chosen of G-d. Additionally the palestinian depopulation effort will continue at full pace whilst we are busy worrying about the worthiness of Blinken.
The Palestinian population has always increased. There never is depopulation.
We need some more land for rocket bases.
JOHN MCCAIN: “Nuke! Nuke! Nuke Iran.”
If they acquire, buy, or are given nukes, they will use them against Israel and NYC, DC, Miami, Houston, LA, and Seattle. Now what comrades?
“Who attacked us? Don’t know for sure. We can’t just start bombing countries with no proof, only suspicions.” More hit.
WHERE ARE THE WORLD’S ANTI-NUKE PROTESTERS demanding Iran not build one? Isn’t it easier to try to stop them because once they get some, getting them to ban them, IS IMPOSSIBLE! WHERE ARE THEY? Where’s the IAEA demanding access? DO THEY SIDE WITH THEM? MOST DO!
IMAGINE A WORLD WITHOUT THE MULLAH’S OF IRAN! “Thanks Jimmy. Thanks Obama. Thanks Biden.”
IMO, anyone who thinks Iran doesn’t already have nukes is fooling themselves. We’ve been hearing this for years. It isn’t as if they are starting from zero. It’s more likely they are just in the process of building enough nukes to bomb the entire western world. And to make matters worse, that fucking creep in the WH is giving them the money to do it.
Blinken needs to remove his blinders.
Being a fan of Douglas MacGregor’s analysis of the Russia/Ukraine war, and his criticisms, as a former military guy, of the contemporary congressional/media/military/industrial complex, I wonder what he recommends that Israel actually DO in this situation? Anything? Avoid all aerial bombing and keep the strikes surgical? I have yet to hear him make any concrete recommendations on the matter. He just continues to bemoan the influence of the Israeli lobby.
Watch this pinhead try and fit a round peg in a square hole
I am queried bored with all the whining. “Create a desert and call it peace” Tacitus. It always works. Israel has nukes, use them! You would imagine that after Hadrian and 2,000 years of oppression the jews would have had enough but I guess not.
Israel can’t use nukes there, even if they wanted to, without doing great harm to itself, unless they were very small tactical nukes. Everything’s too close together!
If Israel used even he tiniest of tactical nukes we would learn, very quickly, that Iran isn’t still working on developing nukes but already has plenty of them. N. Korea, China and Russia have all contributed to Iran’s effort and to think after what, 10 years or so, they still don’t have one is just ludicrous.
Blinken will never stand up for Israel, or stand up to his boss. Those things would remind people that he’s Jewish. The shame would just about kill him.
All that can be said about this creepy Blinken pos, spokesboy for the Muslim puppeteer, is that the sooner he is out of our face, the better.
If Blinken knew and understood Islam, he would realize that behind the smiling facade, Abbas detests him. Maybe then he would have a more realistic approach to the problem.
“Palestinian” is a terrorist organization. Not a nation.
How hard is it for any person to see this truth and the fact.
As far as I recall the British stole 77% of Israel’s historic land and gave it to the Hashemites from Saudi, as the state for the Arabs. Maybe Israel should take it back. There are no so-called Palestinians of course, an invention of terrorist (ie Muslim) Arafat.
So much for “Laurence of Arabia” getting involved with something he shouldn’t have.
To be blunt, Blinken is basically an idiot. Facts are that if Hamas/Hezbollah stop their violence and lay down their weapons, the violence would end. If Israel stopped their campaign and laid down their weapons they’d be dead the next day. The terrorists nor their ‘citizens’ have a desire for peace if it means a single Jew lives. And Hamas has ‘occupied’ Gaza since 2006, not Israel.
Blinken is really only a spokesman for Joe Biden and his terrible goal and policy of promoting that hoax of a “two- State solution “ which in reality is nothing but a recipe for disaster.
Joe Biden sure is the divider and chief and not just when comes to him dividing the American people into different political and social “camp.” For even on the international foreign level Biden is that awful divider.
For Biden backs and supports the awful scheme to divide the State of Israel into two. Meaning the so called “two state solution” is not really a valid idea and not a genuine solution. It will definitely not stop this awful Israeli –Muslim land conflict.
Thus a “two state solution” is out of the question. .This is because a “two state solution” not really a “solution” but an Islamic ploy of deception, a smokescreen and hoax and a fraud.
As observed early October7th with those Hamas Islamic terror/murder attacks into Israel from Gaza reveals that even the idea of some people of dividing Jerusalem as well as other parts of the State of Israel between the Jewish people of the Muslim/ Arabs is nothing but folly. To engage the madness of such “talks” is a hoax and a farce .This is because in the so called “negotiations” between the heads of the Jewish nation of Israel and the leaders of the “Palestinians” the Muslim /Arabs the “Palestinian” leaders will speak the truth only when in happens to fit their agenda. The rest of the time the will be speaking half-truths and outright lies. For their goal is to obtain all of the land of the State of Israel. Even in it takes much time and it means getting the land piece by piece. Therefore, those “peace talks” are a hoax.
The sly and something subtle strategy of disingenuous speech, lying deception of achieving the goal of all the land of Israel a war ploy that will be a disaster if the heads of the State of Israel are foolish enough to agree to divide the land of Israel with Muslim /Arabs ,the “Palestinians.” For if such a “peace dialogue” results in a divided land, the outcome will literally be murder. For “Palestinian” leader will allow the jihadists use that land as a base to launch murderous rocket attacks in to Israel. As for example, Hamas of Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon.
This issue will be resolved now as it should have been at the outset–eliminate the threat in it’s totality, no quarter given instead of weak accession to hamas’ demands. As it is, the “resolution” resulted in a decades long charade of blood. NOW, that bloodshed will be far more than would have been necessary.
So be it.
Still working for the UN disinformation team? Why aren’t you in Davos? Oh right yeah, you’re one of the plebs.
Everything Biden touches turns to a giant crap storm. It so incompetent that it’s extremely disappointing to have these fools in charge and are this clueless.
A “Palestinian State” would FIX the problem? Has it not occurred to these “Government Leaders” that they already HAVE one? It’s called, “GAZA”. How’s it working out?? All they need to do, is rename it “Palestine”! Which is not to say there aren’t OTHER “Palestinian”, i.e., Arabic speaking Hashemite Arabs in ANOTHER “Palestinian” State named “Jordan”. And another to the North, called “Lebanon”, and the Northeast, called “Syria”. Just HOW MANF PALESTINIAN STATES does the World Need???
There is no 2 state solution, look at France’s creating Lebanon and breaking it off from Syria to create a Christian majority state. Over time Muslims from Syria and then the PLO that got kicked out of Jordan relocated to Lebanon. As the Muslim population grew, they started attacking the Christians, then the Christians had enough and formed their own militia. Lebanon spiraled down into a civil war, where the Muslims won and where a majority of Christians left their homeland.
Now Lebanon is just a country in name only, it’s literally a failed state with an abysmal economy and a worthless currency. Just like with all failed Muslim states, terrorists carve up the territory to create their own defacto state within a state. This is seen in Pakistan, Syria, Iraq and Somalia just to name a few in name only countries. In Lebanon, the terrorist group Hezbollah has its own defacto state in the southern section of this in name only country.
Arabs by the way in the post WW1 British controlled mandated territory of Palestine (what’s Israel & Jordan today) thought of themselves as people of greater Syria. Only in the early 1960’s at the behest of the Soviet Union, was the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) founded. Prior to that, all members were part of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood but the USSR created a splinter group deliberately formed to constantly attack Israel.
A 2 state solution for the Muslims is just part of the greater Jihad plan to eliminate Israel. These Muslims don’t want yet another state, they just want to conquer Israel for Allah. Unfortunately useful idiots who are illiterate in the history of Islam and Muslim expansionism feel Arabs want a self-governing state of Palestine. If that were true, they could have had it many times since 1948! But the truth is the only goal of Muslims is to wipe Israel off the map!
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AND NEVER WAS, A ‘PALESTINIAN STATE’. Israel, ALL OF ISRAEL, was given to the Jewish people in 1948. THE BIBLE says that Israel (Promise Land) belongs to GOD’S CHOSEN PEOPLE.
The Muslims are NOT God’s chosen people, but He does love them, but he cannot save them if they continue worshiping the wrong ‘god’, SATAN and that is who they are worshiping, whether they know it or not.
We all know WHY they want that, so they can eventually claim ALL OF ISRAEL for themselves. GOD WILL NEVER ALLOW THAT TO HAPPEN.
Western leaders have the conceit that they have the rapt attention of third world leaders, when in fact the Western leaders have imaginary charisma, and the third world probably mocks them when no one is looking. Trudeau thought his charisma alone could win over Georgia Meloni of Italy with his condescending lecture on DEI last year. Sad and funny.
