Israel to expand settlements

[killadoob]

Well then keep firing your bloody rockets, the Israelis will just design a system to shoot them down.

I doubt they even need to use the system, those rockets are such a fail LOL.

Who are you talking to? do you think gdi is firing rockets out his backyard or something?

Those are recognized as Israeli territories by Israel and the US. Not the World Court. The international community has never recognised East Jeruselam as Israeli territory. From whence did you conjure that weird notion in your head? Lol, but anyways, I'm not going to get into that argument again.

Just out of interest, what peace settlement do you actually expect the Palestinians to accept? Gaza and the few homelands:/ or what's left of the homelands after the illegal settlement construction? Lol, really? You expect peace by offering them Gaza and parts of West Bank?

Well obviously anyone pro-Palestinian would take any anti-Israeli sentiment but since pre 1948 Jerusalem was intended to be an international city, then after the Arab-Israeli war it was illegally annexed by Jordan, and after '67 it was annexed by Israel under international law, since Jordan didn't have sovereignty over the area, Israel was entitled to fill the vacuum in an act of self-defense.

I reckon Gaza, and most of the West Bank excluding the settlements very near to the would be Israel-Palestine border and of course East Jerusalem would be fair. Provided Israel can maintain a presence on the border with Jordan.

I reckon pre '67 as the World Court has ruled, and as the international community recognises. Take it, or the negotiations can go home.

speaking of hummus, Aco has some amazing hummus and felafel places. you walk into the arab market and it all looks a bit dinky and dirty, but we had felafel in this little side place, so good it almost makes you believe in a god (almost).
the felafel is crispy on the outside but melts in your mouth and packed with flavour, heaven on a plate.

and then the hummus, man o man, most of the places in Aco serve hummus Sa'id, again a little dinky place in the market, but churning out the most amazing hummus, soft and creamy, mixed with chickpeas and tachina and olive oil with a side of mushrooms.

sigh I need to book a flight ticket to Israel soon, the craving is driving me up the wall.

Will any of you acknowledge another person if that person has repeatedly in the past stated that you have no right to live, exist or have your own land, vowing to exterminate/slaughter you and take possession of what you have? Yet, this is what most of the Palestinians did and still do. Professing this formally and internationally?

How can the Palestinians expect to be recognized as a people/state if they refuse to do so the Israelis? I too would cover my wickets if the other guy outright tells and clearly shows his intentions, time after time after time that he is going to kick me in the goons.

The Palestinians are not interested in peace with Israel - the rockets and terrorist attacks show that clearly - they want 100% of all the land, with no Israel in the picture. Opposed to that is Israel where Arab-Israelis have the same rights as Israeli citizens - being able to vote (men and woman), serve in the Knesset, police,municipalities etc etc.

All I hear is the Apartheid Regime of Israel - I dare you to cast the same eye towards "Palestine" and look at their way of doing things. These are guys using schools as shelters to fire their rockets towards Israel - firing rockets directly adjacent to schools and using human bombs to make their point. Does this sound like people who want peace and who would acknowledge and respect life and those of others?

I truly hope, for both the Palestinians and Israelis, that a permanent peaceful solution can be reached.
