Israeli-Palestinian confederation offers the only solution for sustainable peace : Comments
By Alon Ben-Meir, published 10/8/2021Ultimately a two-state solution remains the only viable option to end their conflict, yet independent Israeli and Palestinian states can peacefully coexist and be sustained only through the establishment of a confederation.

Dear Foxy,
«We need more knowledgeable moderate voices like his (and Alon Ben-Meir's) from both sides to be heard. Not just vested interests with an axe to grind» Yes, you caught me red-handed: Mea Culpa. Indeed I have an axe to grind, I am not moderate at all: I want my family in Israel to live and be well. Indeed I am so perverted that I don't even want peace in the middle east if my family is going to suffer as a result. «I keep being dragged back here.» Whoever or whatever dragged you, wasn't me. «However, I feel obligated to point out to you that...» You told me that you did not wish to discuss the topic any further. I accepted it. I respect your wish. Yet you feel that something obliges you, so it must be within your psyche. You may want to look within to find what it is, perhaps some professional help may also help. You want peace in the middle-east - how about making peace with yourself?

Yuyutsu,
I believe in miracles. And I believe peace in the Middle East is possible with a two-state solution. And global support. What keeps dragging me back to this discussion is the misinformation that you keep spinning. It's a professional habit for me to set the record straight. And as for your seeing my wish for peace and setting the record straight as some sort of psychological problem on my part says more about you than it does about me. You should consider and seek professional help. And stop looking at things and buying into the Zionist propaganda. Posted by Foxy, Sunday, 15 August 2021 9:25:25 AM

Dear Foxy,
«What keeps dragging me back to this discussion is the misinformation that you keep spinning.» Whatever information or misinformation I presented, was already here in plain sight BEFORE you asked to stop the discussion, so since I refrained to comment on the topic, good or bad, it could not have been anything that I wrote which "dragged" you back. «I believe in miracles. And I believe peace in the Middle East is possible with a two-state solution. And global support.» I also would like to see a two-state solution, but we must not rely on miracles, especially when so many others are already in the queue for conflicting miracles: http://www.aish.com/atr/Relying_on_Miracles.html Regarding "Peace in the Middle East", I keep my mouth shut as per your request.

I keep being dragged back here.
However, I feel obligated to point out to you that -
Mouin Rabbani is an independent researcher and
analyst of the contemporary Middle East. He has
published and commented widely on Palestinian affairs
and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the contemporary
Middle East.
He was previously Senior Middle East and Special Adviser on
Israel-Palestine with the International Crisis Group and
Head of Political Affairs with the Office of the United
Nation's Special Envoy for Syria.
We need more knowledgeable moderate voices like his
(and Alon Ben-Meir's) from both sides to be heard.
Not just vested interests with an
axe to grind or Zionists with an agenda if peace is to ever
be achieved in the Middle East.
