    so do all the American colonists get sent back to europe?

    No. And the Israeli colonists don’t do either.

    The solution isn’t forced displacement (of EITHER people), nor is it a two state solution where Palestine is as susceptible to attack as Lebanon, Syria, and whomever else has the misfortune to be near Israel and not completely subservient to it.

    The only way to lasting peace is Israelis and Palestinians sharing a democratic and egalitarian nation that doesn’t favor any religion or ethnicity by law.

    Getting there is the complicated part, though…

        Pretty sure that the vast majority of Palestinians would be fine with not being systematically slaughtered and displaced.

        As for the Israelis, I’m thinking we do the same as with the original Apartheid state in South Africa: make them a pariah that nobody in the West wants anything to do with until they realize that having a place in civilized society is more important than committing atrocities.

        Right now, they’re getting away with behaving like 1994 Rwanda while being treated like an extra privileged extension of the US.

        Until that changes, no peace is possible.

          Well. Simple as, right?
