Bibi correctly says:
Israel cannot go back to 1967 lines. We can’t go back to the indefensible lines.
Israel cannot negotiate with a Palestinian government that's backed by Hamas. Hamas has just attacked you, Mr. President, and the United States for ridding the world of bin Laden.
The Arab attack in 1948 on Israel resulted in two refugee problems: Palestinian refugee problem and a Jewish refugee problem, roughly the same number who were expelled from Arab lands. Now tiny Israel absorbed the Jewish refugees, but the vast Arab world refused to absorb the Palestinian refugees. Now, 62 years later, the Palestinians come to us and they say to Israel, ‘Accept the grandchildren and the great grandchildren of these refugees,’ thereby wiping out Israel’s future as a Jewish state. It’s not going to happen. Everybody knows it’s not going to happen. And I think it’s time to tell the Palestinians forthrightly, it’s not going to happen. It’s not going to be resolved within the Jewish state.
The essential American soul is hard, isolate, stoic, and a killer. It has never yet melted. ~ D.H. Lawrence
