Part 8 A Debate on Ending Israels Occupation of Palestinian Territories: Non-Violent Options

[dFont70]

He's right - the Palestinians are in a better position by negotiating on the right of return.

The problem with uncompromising on right of return is not only that Israel can't accept it but also it is not International law - UN resolution is non binding. It is also unprecedented and would set a precedent around the world that many countries would oppose. Furthermore, all the Arab nations opposed it and would probably do so today because of its implications. Most people agree on two states.

This boils down to whether you think Zionists stole Palestinian land 60 years ago or reclaimed Jewish land from 2000 years ago. I'm not interested in theocratic penis measuring contests or God's gazumping real estate contracts, so much as the passage of time.

If you're holding grudges for 2000 or even 60 years then we're talking about a psychological instability that only comes from theism. Whatever two-state map is drawn up, Jerusalem needs to be made an international, secular jurisdiction.
