and a typical zionist excuse for israel`s illegal occupations and cancerous settlements.
"all because your buddies won`t accept a jewish state in the middle east"~mcqueen
please explain, with "some" degree of credibility(if you "think" you can), israel`s refusal to consider negotiations of the "arab peace proposal", prefering instead to jealously "cling" to it`s illegal occupations?
are they "worth it"?
when the alternative is israel`s acceptance into the fold of middle-east nations, the potential that`s offered for trade, cooperation, interaction, mutual security, a unified front against iran`s encroaching influence, the defusing of anti-israel/anti-semite sentiments which fuel the rhetoric and fill the ranks of islamic terrorist groups around the world...and the list goes on...
ARE those occupied territories, which even israel knows it`s destined to lose, "really" worth its shunning those opportunities availed to it by conceding to their eventuality NOW, instead of covetously clinging to them, and losing them "after" the windows of opportunity have all closed?
