Bo you called the Israel-Palestinan an easy fix if only the US would but out and let the UN, who has exhibited a marked pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel bias for decades, jam Israel with its solution.
I called that your final solution, as it likely would have been an apocalyptic ending....
Why would a UN solution favoring Palestine necessarily be
A. Apocalyptic
B. Anti-Semitic
I don't quite see that case being made by you. Maybe Palestine, after decades of brutal oppression and land theft by Far Right governments, DOES need favoring?? One can be pro-Palestine without perforce being anti-Israel.
I didn't say that,
I said the UN as a body has exhibited a strong anti-Israel bias historically, whether its roots are in anti-Semitism I can not say. But its not like antisemitisn is new, its lhas a 5,000 year history.
Bo's original EZ fix post had the US abandoning Israel and israel getting jammed with a UN solution or facing dire consequences. I fear that that solution reflecting the UN's demostrated biases, might be met and answered in an aggressive response. An ugly deadly war. its not a stretch.
I truly feel badly for displaced Palestinians, but war was declared on Israel several times from 1948-73, and...
The Palestinians and their allies in the region made some very poor stategic choices, over and over again,
And israel has become more reactionary.
But I understand that Israel wil likely have to make sacrifices like land, autonomy and certain reparations and investments in their defeated foe, just like other victors have traditionally done after wars.
And then after making concessions and making investments they will then have to trust their neighbors good intentions to keep the peace.
and trust in that part of the world is in short supply.
And Bo's calling for israel to obey international law, as decided by its un-democratic foes, is a fucking joke.
where is the call for Arab states to obey International law that created the state of Israel in 1948?
the hypocrisy is self-evident.
