No matter how small
When your 6-year-old asks you for the car keys, say: first, learn the bike.
As soon as Muslims who live outside of 1948-Israel can live in peace with Jews, they can have their own State—but won’t need one.
When you can live next to us, you can live with us. When you can’t live in peace with Jewish neighbors, you can’t live with a Jewish neighbor State.
And two States are simply not viable.
So many Jews liked Palestinian nationalism, while the Muslim-Palestinian leadership only wanted all the Jews dead. We grew up. Past station. No way. Learn to like us. Then we’ll talk again.
We will not even permit Palestinian Muslims to take over Jordan. Learn to like us. Then we’ll talk again.
From 1948, 20% of the democratic Jewish State is Muslim. These full citizens got to value us, and since October 7, identify more as Israeli than Palestinian. They should not be confused or conflated with the terrorists who terrorize and rule the territories Israel regained in the Six-Day War.
Foreign leaders who harp about the Two-State Solution have no idea how ridiculous they look in our eyes when doing so. It’s like grown people demanding recognition for territorial rights at the Pole for Father Xmas.
An idea of—allegedly—having a convicted mass murderer and unrepented terrorist against Jews lead such a State only makes you look a fool.
But here’s a hint for the clueless. When terrorist leaders applaud you and Israeli Jews and Muslims say you’re mistaken, don’t listen to the assassins.
