I want there to be a Palestinian state, don't get me wrong. However it can't happen whilst Hamas and the PA hate each other. There haven't been elections in the West Bank for twelve years now, Abbas doesn't even have a mandate.
I also see that demanding that Israel goes back to the pre-1967 borders is totally unworkable. There are now nearly 600,000 settlers on the West Bank, that's a fact, and they won't go quietly. The border will have to be redrawn to include the majority of those settlements with some land swaps.
I do actually question whether the Palestinians truly want a deal to be honest, just look at the facts and tell me otherwise.
In 2000, Ehud Barak offered over 90 percent of the West Bank, all of the Gaza Strip, a land-link connecting the two, Palestinian control over the Temple Mount mosques in Jerusalem, as well as compensation for Palestinian refugees. Arafat just ran away from the table. Shortly after he launched an Intifada.
In 2008, Ehud Olmert offered nearly 94 percent of the West Bank plus another 6% of Israeli territory, a link to the Gaza Strip, withdrawal from East Jerusalem's Arab neighbourhoods, and the placing of the Old City under international control. Palestinian Prime Minister Mahmoud Abbas just walked away from the table.
Moonbat will never ever address those issues all you'll ever get out of him is the same old tired mantras. He seriously believes that with a few demos, posting incessantly on obscure forums and spouting his BDS propaganda day after day will force Israel to capitulate.

I agree with the Palestinians walking away. Only peers can arrive at agreements. I've said it before and I'll say it again, as long as the Palestinians are legally stateless no agreement between them and Israel is worth the paper it's printed on.
