That’s very, very naive.
Gaza was effectively a Palestinian state.
So let’s say there was an official Palestinian state either side of Israel formed from Gaza and the West Bank, and that Palestinian state elected an extreme Islamic jihadist party to govern them.
Then, that legitimate Palestinian state declared war on Israel, and undertook a military incursion into Israel killing thousands of Jews.
How is that any different to now.
If, in that theoretical scenario, Israel retaliated against that legitimate Palestinian state and flattened it, would you, Ian and JFman still condemn Israel for defending itself?
Giving Palestinians a state, would not give Israelis peace…..from the river to the sea negates the existence of Israel. Giving Palestinians a state wouldn’t change anything.
