Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday that before there is peace between Israel and the Palestinians, “Hamas must be destroyed, Gaza must be demilitarized, and Palestinian society must be deradicalized.”

    Honestly at this point I’m all for the dissolution of Israel. Set up a new temporary government overseen by the U.N. And ensure people like Bibi are sent to The Hague.

      There really doesn’t seem to be ANY good answer at this point. The removal of Israel isn’t an option, but at the same time, the forced creation of an Israeli state multiple generations ago, seems to have caused more problems than it solved.

      There was a really good alternative history book touching on the topic called “The Yiddish Policeman’s Union” written by Michael Chabon.

      The gag there was, at the end of WWII, instead of Israel, a Jewish refugee camp was created in and around Sitka, Alaska. But the lease was fixed for a set period of time, I forget how many years. Now, in the present day, the lease is about to expire and there’s this whole murder mystery thing.
