excerpt:

Which side would provide better laws? 

There is no contest. The Arab citizens of Israel have more freedom and justice than the Arab citizens of a Palestinian state would have. That means Israel should rule. Please understand…

The “free Palestine” slogan is an oxymoron. A Palestinian state would be an authoritarian hellhole. 

The Palestinians have an honor culture with heaping helpings of Islamic fundamentalism and jihad enthusiasm. 

We are constantly told that peace will come if Israel tears down its settlements in the West Bank and agrees to create a Palestinian state there, and in Gaza. But Israel did exactly that in Gaza and Northern Samaria (on the West Bank) in 2005. This action created a de facto Palestinian state in Gaza. But no peace resulted.

excerpt

Hamas defeated its Palestinian rival Fatah in 2007 and took complete control of Gaza. Hamas then attacked Israel the following year. Israel defeated Hamas and signed a peace agreement with them. But the peace agreement didn’t bring peace. 

Hamas attacked Israel again in 2012, 2014 and 2021. Israel retaliated and destroyed a large part of Gaza. Hamas then signed another peace treaty with Israel, but then Hamas massacred and raped Israeli civilians on October 7, 2023.
