8. Well - I'm not just talking about '48
UN has tried to be "the court" - mediators of the world and Israel and the US are determined to undermine that.


While I think it's one thing to use the power that Israel has - with the help of the US to keep from getting kicked off - it's another thing entirely to keep encroaching on what should be Palestinian territory - whether it's the settlements or the West Bank or Sheba Farms or whatever.

I see it as Israel who has the power to establish peace - if they could control their own Jewish population from essentially terrorizing the Palestinians. I think the Palestinians would be a lot less aggressive if they weren't being terrorized. While it works both ways - Israel IS the one with the resources. I don't see them as the victims. And I don't see them as working for peace.
