Should Palestinians have a state? No! Are you kidding me? There are already 22 Arab countries! Why do we need one more? And why does it have to be on acount of Israel which is only one small Jewish State.

So lets go back in history. Before WW1 the Ottoman Empire ruled over Palestine, then after WW1 the British occupied it. Yes there was an area called Palestine, but who ever said that they were a people, and who ever said that there was a state? It's like people who live in Yellow Stone would start saying that they are Yellowstoners and that it's a State. The area "Palestine" was never controlled by arabs! So stop confusing yourselves by thinking that Palestinians are a type of people. They are not! They are Arab muslims, and so is Lebanon, Jordan, Eygpt, Syria, Saudia Arabia, Iraq, etc.... If you can tell me the difference in the people who live in those countries and "Palestinians" then I would agree for a Palestinian State, but there is no difference! They are all Arab Muslims.

Now there's only 1 Jewish small state and "Palestinians" are lying that they have the right to have a state and are trying to get it from Israel in hopes for the destrcution of it offcourse. So whoever thinks a Palestinian State is a solution for anything, is just plain ignorent. All the Arab world wants is the destruction of Israel! Just look at facts, Iran's president recently remarks "Israel should be wiped off the map", Arafat's " I will not rest until all the Jews are dead!", suicide bombings, the Arab nations attacking Israel 5 times since its creation in 1948. And also look at what Palestinians said they want, Palestinians said that there are 3 things they "want" 1. for Israel to return Gaza, 2. for Israel to return the West Bank, And 3rd, for Palestinians to be able to live in Israel.

So think about it, Why do Palestinians want to be able to go live in Israel, if what they say they want is a Palestinian state? If you know the arab world and how their brains function then you would realize what that would do. End of story. Palestinians don't exist weather you like it or not. Arabs muslims exist... but Palestinians don't!
