Do youthink the Palestinian Authority really wants a 2-state soloution?

While the Palestinian Authority announces in English its demand for a two-state solution, to its own people in Arabic it continues to define all of Israel as "Palestine," and to promise Israel's destruction. A new video clip, broadcast numerous times daily since it first appeared on Fatah-controlled TV last week, passionately promises "Mother" that every Israeli city will be "liberated" because its "identity is Arab" and "Palestinian”:

"We will liberate the Land… [which] is Arab in history and identity, Palestine is Arab in history and identity."

And to ensure that no one limits the land of the future "liberated Palestine," the song defines the scope of Palestinian cities, which include all of Israel:

"From Jerusalem and Acre and from Haifa and Jericho and Gaza and Ramallah

From Bethlehem and Jaffa and Be'er Sheva and Ramle

And from Nablus to the Galilee, and from Tiberias to Hebron”

This is significant not only because it was broadcast on Fatah TV . . .

Update:

Paranormal has some serious errors.

While he claims that The PLO changed their charter, the fact is that it still calls for the destruction of Israel. No red herring here, maybe just an apologist for Islamist terror.

    No. Of course not.

    They will settle for nothing less than the utter destruction of Israel.

    If those statments are genuine then i condeme them finished heartedly. even with the undeniable fact that soemtimes i'm getting the sensation that Israel isnt wholy commited to a 2 state soloution the two. Israel maintains to be buidling settlements interior the West monetary enterprise with out halt and Israel controles the West Banks strongest source (Water). Israel makes use of the West monetary enterprise as a tax loose zone for financial use weither it quite is dumping waste 10 circumstances extra fee-effective then in Israel, construction homes or taking water from the section, Israel practices a de facto soverignity over the section and holds the placement under defense force profession if i became the Palestinians i could be alittle extra then somewhat peeved. Israel receives lots earnings from the west monetary enterprise it quite is problematic for me to beleive they are going to relinquish their "soverignity" actually at throughout this section.

    Yes they do but they are also very divided. Recent polls indicate that if elections were held today, Hamas would lose power. I think the 'destruction of Israel' issue is a serious red-herring. The PLO changed its constitution some yrs ago to remove calls for the destruction of Israel. And anyway, noone seriously believes that a people armed with slingshots or suicide-bombs, without an airforce, tanks or a navy can destroy Israel - a nation with the second largest airforce and 4th largest army on the planet. The Palestinians have endured decades of occupation and in that context it is not surprising they are angry as they see their homes demolished in the West Bank to be replaced with Israeli settlements. I would be angry if someone did that to me. Of course that does not justify terrorism against civilians. But Israel seems not to distinguish between this and Palestinian attacks on their soldiers. Israeli rule in the West Bank is not internationally-recognised and is therefore an illegal occupation. I really have to say that I believe as a European, that a lot of Americans are forgetting their own history. Remember that you had to fight for your independence 220 yrs ago.

  • We all know they won't rest until they kill every Jew. Thier argument is faulty that Israel is Arab territory. Before the Arab invasion, it was occupied by Jews, and before them it was occupied by the now extinct Cannanites, which were mostly descendants of a maritime people with roots in Crete. The land goes to the earliest surviving owner. Besides, why would anyone besides a retard or a terrorist want to give the land to terrorists? Thats bad for everyone, including the Arabs.

    The Arabs will do whatever they regard as necessary to remove the Jews from the Middle East. Anything they say or do is a tactic in this direction.

    The point is that they make no attempt to hide the fact that they are committed to the destruction of Israel.

    Yet the world pays no attention.
