@tobie1 Israel should not be asked to accept a Palestinian state immediately after October 7, and definitely not without conditions being met on the Palestinian side. Israel already tried this, up to and including complete disengagement from Gaza, and it got October 7 for its trouble. It's still trying to rid itself of Hamas, which Joe Biden is trying to prevent for some reason, otherwise he wouldn't have thrown such a fit about Rafah. And if he wants to solve the Middle East, he can quit trying to appease Iran and tell the PA to knock it off with the pay-for-slay crap and to knock off the incitement of their society's kids to violence or they lose all funding for a start. Instead he wants to put all his considerable pressure on Israel and none on Hamas or any of the other non-Israel entities involved.
