The problem is one side doesn't just want the west bank and gaza, they want Israel.
Great reply, thank your neighbor for his insights.
Yes good Valin, I know, but I can't do that. When I came back across the street yesterday and walked in the door, it hit me to post all of this conversation with this new neighbor at FR. When I went over there, I had no idea this new neighbor was from Israel. But when I was invited in, and sat down, and we started talking, I knew what I was going to ask as we carried on. And think about this. This retired Israeli army fella, had/has - no idea - that I'm pretty big in my attendance at an all news site like FR. I didn't mention this at the time - so here we have me, a Jewish guy, and this new neighbor, an Israeli now living in America and happens to move in across the street, well, as I think about all of this, I realize that there is no reason for this person to embellish any of what he told me. He had/has no idea that I post at an all news site. Sooo.....well, what he stated - seems all that more credible to me now, as I think all of this over.
Yes Valin, we should all thank him for this information, but we can't and I won't. He might very well be upset that I've reported what I have and also, he might not speak with me again and also, I won't get anymore information from him. (he says his mother who is still alive, still lives in Israel. He is going back to Israel to visit for three weeks, but I forgot when he said he was going/seems that he said within a month or so. I'm just trying to recall all of the extra details. - - also, let's just all think this over again...there is no reason for this man to exaggerate anything he told me - who am I going to tell? As far as he knows, just another friend or two that I might tell all of this to.
Fyi, in reporting all of this here, perhaps, in some why, all of what I've stated ie. this conversation with this neighbor - might help stop or change - whatever might be coming.
