This is why I don’t believe in”occupation”. I believe in wars lost. 

Still, I support Palestinian statehood. 

The PLO was a sham. Arafat was given most everything he wanted from Israel. And he walked away from peace. 

Still, I support Palestinian statehood. 

The far right religious Israelis who build communities in the West Bank are AWFUL. That Netanyahu backs them is criminal. 

Israel can and should do better. Still: they have a right to exist.
