These evil lunatics in Palestine should stop terrorising innocent Israeli`s before asking to be a state.
These are terrorists who deserve no pity. The US has always vetoed these pleas, but under Obama they may even be supported. I wouldn`t put it past the Dems anyway.

Fatah needs to cut off Gaza and start their own state in West Bank. Gaza has become to radical and is too much of a threat to Israeli security. That threat will only increase if Gaza were part of independent nation.
Not that Israel has not earned the threat though; they have. But Israel is not about to flog herself, no matter how richly she deserves the flogging. Of course Palestinians should have their own state since nobody wants them. Being stateless is part of the reasons they are like they are, and they are not going to change for keeping them stateless.

if they could agree on peace agreement then help them establish the state.
it would be nice to see Palestine as a separate state. i also would love to see how the Arab and the muslim world will help to push the issue.

They only support when it's violence. It's the Arab way. And the modern muslim way.

The place is a mess. Israel should just stop the building, and the Pali's should stop firing rockets.

Agreements have been made many times, just to be broken. What is needed is for the international community to force Israel to adhere to international law and common human decency.

They could have had their state long ago, if they recognized Israels right to exist and stopped terrorism.
In the event, this just more arab muslim double-speak in order to destroy the Jewish state.

I think it is more like if they recognized Israel's right to keep the land it stole from Palistinians. They should BTW. Unfortunately the world runs on stolen land. When the Palistinians gain the strength they obviously do not have now, they can steal it from the Israelis in the same fashion. But it won't really be stealing back because we know most of the people who owned that land are dead, and most who would have inherited will be cheated out by some other Palestinian for lack of anyone having clear proof, such as a land deed with accurate global coordinates. Ain't life grand?

Maybe Israel should return all the land they have stolen since the 1947 UN partitioning of the land was created.

They did, they had Palestine. But then a group of terrorists (yes that is what they were called) wiped it off the map with the military and financial help from corrupt western governments.

The Arabs in Palestine are the regions terrorists. They have terrorised and slaughtered thousands of innocence over the last few decades.
A state must not be given until the Palestinians mature and elect a responsible government. The complain endlessy abnout Israeli attacks , but these are in self defence to protect their homeland.
