Bush Reaffirms Vision of Palestinian State

At least if the Philistines had a tate, Israel could rightly declare war on her and keep her butt instead of taking all this flak for defending itself.

Oh Lord, please help guide our blessed President to the path of righteousness and protect him from Satan's messengers who are whispering evil in dark corners of power.

But did Bush mention Arafat when he talked about the creation of a Palestinian state?

[Moonmad27]

What he's not telling them is that the "state" is somewhere south of East Timor. Seriously, it's a good idea. I am 100% for GWB. If the Palestinians were offered a homeland (something they never had before, no matter what they say), the world would see quickly that they don't really want a state - they want the destruction of Israel itself. Any state they would be given would be a hellhole in a very short time.

Where is there an Arab state worthy of the name? Some of them happen to have barrels'o'bucks, and can keep up the sham appearance of statehood. But in none of them is there democracy or concern for their own citizens.

Pssst, Mr. President, they DO have their own state...it's called JORDAN!!

[A CA Guy]

A atate of terrorism and anarchy!

[2sheep]

What is this??? The destroyers are the ones who want a Pali state as a [further] means to destroy Israel... the last step to their 'final solution'.

This is the Judgment of God against America.

A 'vision'. It's always been a vision never a reality. I wonder why?

I have a vision - of Arafat in his rathole for the last 5 days. Which Bush is supporting, I gather. Talk is one thing, actions are another, eh? :)

[ex-snook]

But what makes sense in Israel-Palestine conflict is to choose between (1) Two States (2) One fully democratic State with one person, one vote, with "Mexican" style borders. (Don't forget 'final solutions' went out with Hitler and ethnic cleansing went out with Milosovic.)
