Reader comment on item: How Israel Can Win

It should be quite clear by now that the roadmap doesn't work and a Palestininan state in the west bank is not economically feasible. In fact, what nobody is saying is that a Palestinian state on the west bank would only work if it included Israel. The idea of a Palestinian state therefore is not so much a desire for a state but for the destruction of Israel with all the war, destruction and bloodshed that that entails and whcih the Arabs apparently look forward to. So, on the basis that Israel will continue to exist we need another solution.

That solution involves the splitting up of the West Bank and Gaza and the Arabs living there between Israel, Jordan and Egypt in some way so that those countries do not become destabilized by the admission to their countries of thousands of terrorists. This should be discussed by the UN as well as the Arab countries who will be most involved.
