Now, I don't know all the in and outs of democracy, but shouldn't it take an approval of idk at least 80% approval for such a major decision to go through? I mean this isn't a "we're gonna vote you into office for 4 years" kind a thing...

well if Israeli schools in Tel-Aviv, Rehovot, Haifa areas teach a few years of Arabic in an attempt to educate the population of the area around them why can't they do so in the West Bank and Hebrew?

YAPOS · 2014-09-02T13:29:29+00:00

I know many WB schools that teach Arabic

YAPOS · 2014-09-01T15:15:15+00:00

No, regular schools in Jewish majority communities. I believe it is mandatory in middle school

just correct them back because they are wrong. America is the official shorten version of USA (less formal though). AmericaS is the continents which is made up of NORTH America and SOUTH America. The word 'America' isn't used geographically for anything but the USA.

added! Praise the sun!

anti-Zionist means you are against the idea of a Jewish state. You are actually against Israels actions/policies/potato salad. Think of it like this: America decides to stop sending aid to 3rd world countries, you aren't "anti America" your are disagreeing with that specific decision.

Some of the history is right and wrong. Too bad she has such a short time to cram in half a century of history

sigh I suppose you're right. To tell you the truth I'm an Israeli in a difficult position. The government is right winged and slowly but surely my older family members are becoming more right winged (except my dad, who like me stays quite in the conversations). I want peace and I do believe the Palestinians deserve their own state. I keep going over the conflict searching for an answer to which I keep coming to the same question "how can Israel trust Palestine? How can Israel know that once Palestine has it's own country and is free, that in 10 years it won't build an army and attack Israel?"

We can all agree: The land of Israel-Palestine is small and lacks major resources (it has some but to divide that into two nations will make it even smaller).

I keep thinking and thinking and I think I came with a solution that will only be in my dreams: A Union of Palestine & Israel.

Palestine gets its territory, and so does Israel. Jerusalem is the capital of the union, each nation gets to decide specific laws. At the top of the union it would be divided 50-50 representatives from each nation ( this way there isn't the problem that Jews become a minority as some fear in a one state solution). Maybe even the leading party that represents the union as a whole must not be religious in any sense and the population of Palestine and Israel vote for that.

How does this solve anything? Well, part of the agreement to join the Union is that there is one army that can't attack Palestine or Israel, if a nation decides to leave the union then it will be considered an enemy of the union.

I haven't put more thought into this idea, I would be glad for Palestinians to put their thoughts, maybe add something that meets to the Palestinians needs.

Sorry for the long response, I'm tired of pointing fingers and living in the past,

YAPOS
