Joe Biden in Israel insists two-state dormant solution as ‘better way’ to peace

President Joe Biden said that during his visit to Israel, the Palestinian territories and Saudi Arabia, he will discuss the inert two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, describing it as the “best way” to peace.

He made his statement shortly after arriving at Ben Gurion International Airport in Tel Aviv on Wednesday afternoon, where he was greeted by Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid and Israeli President Isaac Herzog.

“More peace, more stability, more connectivity. “This is very important for all people in the region, so we will discuss my continued support for a two-state solution, even though I know it won’t happen in the near future.”

The two-state solution voiced by successive US administrations has long been a complete failure—except for the last one.

First, there is no peace partner in the Palestinian government in Ramallah with whom such a solution could be negotiated. Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas maintains the evil “pay to kill” scheme by paying monthly salaries to convicted terrorists and their families, and the Biden administration rewarded him by renewing aid to the Palestinians.

But even if a two-state deal becomes possible in the Palestinian Authority, it will never be accepted by Hamas, the terrorist group that rules the Gaza Strip and promises to destroy Israel and all Jews “from river to sea” and “liberate the country”. Palestine.”

It is also noteworthy that if elections were held in Palestine today, according to the latest polls, Hamas could have defeated Abbas’ Fatah party.

Any attempt by Israel to propose territorial concessions was met with a wave of fear, from the attacks of PLO leader Yasser Arafat in the 1990s after the collapse of the Oslo Accords, to the Second Intifada in the early 2000s, and Israel’s withdrawal from Israel. In 2005 Gaza ended in 17 years (and more) rocket attacks.

But none of this bothered the president, who confidently declared from the asphalt that the two-state solution “I think is the best way to achieve equal levels of freedom, prosperity and democracy for both Israelis and Palestinians in the future.” “

Biden did the same in his speech Administration Referring to the “truth and dignity of the Holocaust”, before correcting himself and saying “the horror of the Holocaust”.

As Breitbart reporter Charlie Spiering said, “This was an unfortunate mistake made by the US president on Israeli soil.”

Biden, on his tenth trip to Israel, told Duke “I’m home” shortly after landing.

“I am honored to meet my friends again and visit the independent Jewish state of Israel,” Biden said.

The American president said, “I repeat, you don’t have to be Jewish to be a Zionist.”

Biden had the opportunity to remind the world once again that he had met every prime minister since Golda Meir in the 1970s.

He described the connection between Israelis and Americans as “to the bone”.

Lapid, Israel’s newly elected Prime Minister, praised Biden as “a great Zionist and one of the best friends Israel has ever known”.

He praised the visit as “historical and deeply personal”.

“This is a historic event because it proves the inseparable relationship between the two countries,” Lapid said. Our commitment to shared values: democracy, freedom and the right of Jews to have their own state.

Although Biden did not mention Iran in his speech, Lapid said they wanted to discuss “the need to renew a strong global coalition that will stop Iran’s nuclear program”.

“We are glad to see you now, Mr. President,” he concluded. “The simple, true joy of seeing a good friend again.”
