here's a great recipe for a peaceful country:

1) conquer large parts of the middle East
2) carve out a small sliver of that conquered land and forcefully import hundreds of thousands of Jews, a group which is already disliked in the region, while displacing the local population.
3) allow the Jews to take over the country, giving a small and disjointed parcel of land to the original inhabitants, while not allowing them any ability to form a true nation state within said small parcel of land.
4) continually expand slowly but surely into said small parcel of land, and then cry victim whenever the locals launch a terrorist attack

Why is the rest of the Muslim world a stinky ****ing turd?

2 state solution always seemed iffy to me

How you gonna have a state consisting of 2 parcels of land not connected but separated by your biggest enemy?

Plus I don't Israel really has any interest in allowing it.

^ I agree with elphenor that a two-state solution would have been the fairest option, but as you suggest, there's a fundamental topographic problem: either, as now, the Palestinian areas are cut in two, or the Palestinian West Bank is connected to the Gaza Strip and Israel is cut in half.

I mean you could always have a 3 state solution.

But Israel wouldn't be up for that either, and Gaza is hardly in a position to be a well functioning or prosperous state on its own.

I say we threaten to clone Hitler if Israel doesn't make friends with the Palestinians.
