Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

🇮🇱🇵🇸 Most people with a heart are concerned about the Palestinian people. Good-natured people wish for everyone in the world to have peace and happiness. The problem is that terrorists are not good-natured people and they rely on our empathy for the Palestinians to push their political agenda by pressuring Israel into a bad cease-fire deal. They will continue to use innocent Palestinians as human shields to manipulate public opinion and convince the public to plead with Israel to agree to a cease-fire deal on the terrorist's terms, terms that would leave Israel insecure and allow the terrorists to continue to terrorize the Israeli people and the international community. It is the terrorists that are causing so many civilian deaths in the conflict, not Israelis. I'm sorry it took me so long to realize this.

Many of us naively believe that the UN-backed solution, a two-state solution, is the best solution simply because we believe that the UN is a humanitarian institution promoting human rights and peace around the world, and therefore we consider the UN to be the authority on human rights and global conflict. I understand this thinking, because I believed the same thing until recently. The reality, however, is that the UN is a political institution, not a humanitarian institution, and many of the UN-backed solutions are not the best solutions for conflicts. The UN is nothing more than a vehicle to achieve global consensus on political agendas, many of which have absolutely no interest in human rights at all.

After October 7, I realized the horrors and challenges that Israel faces in the Middle East, and that all of Israel’s security concerns are legitimate. I also realized that Israel, or at least the vast majority of Israelis, are not anti-Palestinian, and that is still true today even after the heinous terrorist attack against Israelis. It is Palestinians that are anti-Israeli. They loathe Israel. We all witnessed that hatred as it was manifested in the terrorist attack, the most vicious terrorist attack that I know of. I saw videos circulating on social media of Palestinians cheering and celebrating the attack in the streets of Gaza. We also witnessed Palestinian-Americans cheering and celebrating the attack in the USA, including members of the US Congress. I found that to be the most disturbing part of it all, and I started rethinking my whole belief system because of it.

I no longer believe that a Palestinian state should exist. Palestinians deserve dignity, but I no longer believe that creating a Palestinian state will help the Palestinians achieve the dignity they deserve. I no longer believe we will achieve peace by creating a Palestinian state either. If created, Palestine will become a terrorist state, just like Iran, and the Palestinians would suffer under an oppressive regime just like the Iranians. A Palestinian state would be aligned with Iran, and Russia, and China, and it would continue to plot terrorist attacks against Israel just like Iran does. Palestine, as a state, would have more freedom to acquire weapons, which Russia, Iran and China would supply to them, and there is no doubt that they would use them against Israel. Therefore, we will not achieve peace, instead we will create a much stronger terrorist organization, and that will lead to a much bigger and more devastating war in the future.

I believe the best way to help the Palestinians achieve the dignity they deserve, and a better life, free from terrorism and conflict, is for the Palestinians to become integrated into wealthy and peaceful Muslim communities, ones that have already made their peace with Israel. By resettling in wealthy Muslim nations, Palestinians will have access to far better opportunities than they will ever have access to in a Palestinian state or Israeli territory. I believe that if Palestinians are integrated into communities that have already made their peace with Israel, they will be less inclined to be consumed with hatred for Israel. They will finally be able to move on from this conflict and find peace and happiness and be content with life.

I propose that Israel offer to help the Palestinians resettle into new communities and away from this conflict zone. I believe Israel should start making arrangements with wealthy Muslim nations that are willing to offer Palestinians a citizenship and new way of life. I think that the USA should ask Saudi Arabia to take on this responsibility since they are the keeper of Islam, and the largest wealthy Muslim nation in the region.
