Peace or not?!


One of the worst attitudes in lifetimes is creating troubles of our own making. Creating them, amplifying them, in vicious circle: Palestinians and Israelis. Incapable of breaking the paralysis in their internal politics. Incapable of learning from historically repeated mistakes.

Repeated offers rejected from both sides. Now there’s one more complication: Palestinians split between Gaza and West Bank without a single, legitimate authority to approve a deal. On the other hand Israel appears giving up democracy, disproportionately retaliating back each single time.

Not to mention settlement building and not in any location, but in West Bank (70,000 settlers), where a Palestinian State should be instead. What are their genuine intentions: expanding territories?! They shouldn’t forget the creation of the Gaza Camp where 750,000 Palestinians went to make space for Israelis, in 1948.

Maybe THAT was the root of the problem: creating the Israeli State without concurrently creating the Palestinian State?

Anyway diplomacy is lacking in both sides: only this appears to be in common. There must be also something in between, though. There has to be some alternative to do nothing and doing everything, between committing suicide and omicide.

Both sides are slowly giving up: do they want peace or not?!

….Always humble,

Angiolino
