Re: Netanyahu deceiving Israel about peace chances

to continue with the dialogue!

In an unprecedented interview with an Israeli TV station broadcast Wednesday, the former Saudi intelligence chief and ex-ambassador to the US and UK accused Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of deceiving the Israeli public by claiming that Israeli ties with the wider Arab world can be warmed without the Palestinian issue being solved.

“From the Israeli point of view, Mr. Netanyahu would like us to have a relationship, and then we can fix the Palestinian issue. From the Saudi point of view, it’s the other way around.”

Until the zionists resolve the issue of Palestine, return the lands stolen from the indigenous Palestinans and pay compensation to the relatives of those they have murdered and release all those held in captivity, again with appropriate compensation, then Israel will continue to be a pariah state.

They don't want peace, it's quite obvious.

Re: Netanyahu deceiving Israel about peace chances

At last you have said something I can agree with !
The Palestinians don't want peace and they have proved it again and again .
They want the destruction of Israel.
And that is not going to happen .

Re: Netanyahu deceiving Israel about peace chances

Of course the Israelis don't want peace.
It really wouldn't suit their fervent, dogged agenda of land expansion and nation state building.
Neither side really want it, unless it is on their own terms so it's now resulted in a stalemate. Each side is as bad as the other.

Thing is Israel is the stronger country with a heavy weight USA for backer so are getting way with murder ... quite literally.

If someone moved in and occupied the bottom of your own garden, illegally , under the dubious guise of claiming it was for their own survival and , then began to further encroach up your garden and built communities to house their own settlers, whilst deploying armed sentries claiming it was to 'keep peace and order' ... whilst meanwhile writing out rafts of official documentation annexing the occupied land they filched... would you feel aggrieved at the theft of your land?


Probably.
But go on a march or a riot and you'd likely get shot by an IDF sniper patrolling the area to protect Israeli survival.
I can't believe Israel are actually getting away with it.
International condemnation and criticism is fine but their critics appear to be toothless. Unlike bombing raids on Assad or sanctions against Iran.

But peace would not suit them as that implies some element of 'give and take' and compromise and after the atrocities of WW2 that is something post-war Israels are clearly not inclined toward. A fine robust stance in the search for survival.
No longer the underdog or the victim they do however risk becoming something else entirely.
