Given the high level of incompetence of the current Israeli government and the growing sophistication of Israel’s enemies(for example, Hezbollah and Iran’s surprisingly effective use of drones), what makes you so confident that Israel will prevail over it’s enemies if it loses the support of the US within the context of a looming threat from Turkey whose military is comparable to Israel’s.
In confronting Israel’s critics, one area I need help with is settlements in the West Bank. I am familiar with the different Areas A, B, and C from the Oslo Accords and now the vast majority of Jews that live in the West Bank live in Area C.
What I don’t know is in your opinion, how much of an obstacle are those settlements to an eventual two-state solution. For the purposes of my question, take Hamas out of the equation for a moment and assume that the belief system of Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib has blossomed throughout the West Bank and Gaza and we have a liberal Palestinian polity that is ready to live peacefully next to Israel. What happens with the Settlements in the West Bank and do Israel’s critics have a point that their expansion is an ever-growing and additional obstacle to an eventual Palestinian state?
Or is that issue overblown by the "Israel is always wrong" crowd.
I think you may have covered this before but heck if I can find it. Also, thank you for your tireless work to help educate the anglosphere about Israel and both its beauty and flaws.
