#4 If you are going to have a meaningful Palestinian state, it needs to have a meaningful piece of land that goes with it."

Well, better not have a Palestinian state at all, cut all funding and force them to give back all the money we gave them on humnitaraion grounds and that they used in Kassams.

#7 No phil_b. Trans = beyond.

Given the pitiful and failed attempts at self-governance by the Palestinians over the last half century, I'd say the idea of a Palestinian state is trans-belief.

Of course, JosephM. If they actually had a state they would have to do all the boring political things that are involved in running one. Now they get all the romantic fun of thinking of themselves as revolutionaries while being sadistically violent criminals.
