153 - HISTORY OF MODERN ISRAEL - PALESTINIAN STATEHOOD - TROJAN HORSE DIPLOMACY

Recently, current states like Ireland, Spain, Norway. Hungary. Poland are calling for the unilateral establishment of a Palenstinian state, without Israeli support or consultation.None of these countries, Ireland, Spain, Norway. Hungary. Poland, acknowledged a state of Palestine before the October 7 massacre. None of them. None of them acknowledged a state of Palestine on October 6th.But After Hamas commits an atrocity on Oct 7, that's when many states say, OK, now you get a state. That's the way this works. You deserve a state. You deserve a state. Now. Is that going to facilitate peace in the region?Do you think that the Saudis are interested in a Palestinian state? They certainly are not. They have to say that they are because obviously their population hates Israel. But the Saudi leadership has zero interest In a state of Palestine that becomes an Iranian proxy state directed against it near its own borders, of course they're not interested in that. Which is why the Saudis openly said to the Biden administration. Please stop pressuring for a Palestinian state. Stop it.A false notion: That when a Palestinian state is magically established, all conflict in the Middle East goes away, which is absolutely irrational. Middle East Conflict – The vast majority of conflict in the Middle East, if you're counting dead, wounded, every war, has nothing to do with Israel or the Palestinians. Check out their own Iran-Iraq war, or the conflicts in Syria or ISIS or the takeover of Lebanon by Iran, if you don't believe me.War is a pretty constant feature of the region actually, as it turns out.The world in large measure trying to pressure Israel to make concessions to a terror entity. In the middle of a war against the terror entity meanwhile would facilitate peace.The notion that there should be a Palestinian state taking control of its own borders is an idea whose time is not here. Absolutely not, considering those borders have been used to facilitate terrorism.
