I've been asked what could be an immediate and effective foreign policy act that incoming President Trump could take to promote peace. My answer was that he needs to give the eight decades too late "You Lost" speech. Here is my proposal: "Dear Palestinians: The current war and destruction in Gaza are the direct consequences of your repeated choice, for over a century, to prioritize destroying what the Jews have built over building for yourselves. Again and again that terrible choice has led you to ruin, and again and again, misguided (at best) western and international powers have led you to believe that you did not lose the war against Jewish sovereignty in any part of the land, but that your victory was merely delayed. This has only ever brought about more war and suffering. If we are to chart a different future of peace and prosperity, you must come to terms with the fact that given that your goal in the past century was to initially prevent and then undo the existence of Jewish sovereignty in any part of the Jewish history homeland, you lost. Israel, as the sovereign state of the Jewish people in their ancient homeland, is here to stay. You can live next to it, but not instead of it. Peace and prosperity depend on you finally coming to terms with your devastating loss, recognizing how terrible your ideology has been, and that in living in the West Bank and Gaza you are not multiple generation refugees and you possess no such thing as a “right of return” into the sovereign state of Israel. You need to finally, eight decades too late, accept and even embrace this. From that, and only from that, a better future for all can be built."

So you want to recognize the state of Palestine? By all means. Go ahead. Just make sure to note that since Palestine is a state, no-one living in it is or can be or will be recognized by your country as a "refugee from Palestine", that you are therefore defunding UNRWA, that there is no such thing as a "right of return" into another sovereign state in which one has never been a citizen or ever lived. If you're not ready to so as a package, then please don't pretend that the purpose of recognizing Palestine is to promote "a two state solution". Given that there was never a moment in the last century when there was an Arab Palestinian vision of peace and two states where one of the states is Jewish - which means acceptance that no-one is a "refugee from Palestine" when already living there or as citizens of Jordan and other countries, and that there is no such "right of return" into the territory of the sovereign state of Israel of people who were never its citizens - then now might be a great time to start clarifying that. A recognition of a state of Palestine is a great way to finally clarify - is the other state in the "two state solution" the Jewish state of Israel? Or, is it, as Palestinians continue to believe, a temporary aberration that will revert to being Arab in due course?It is high time to ensure that any vision of peace by two states means that one of these two state is Jewish. And if not, it would be nice to finally know that your country recognizes Palestine because it believes that "from water to water Palestine will be Arab" - the original Arab version of "From the River to the Sea" - and that there is no room for Jewish sovereignty anywhere. Precisely the vision that animated Hamas October 7th attack and the continued support it enjoys among Palestinians. If this is why your country is recognizing Palestine, it would be a good time for Israel to finally know that. If not, if you genuinely believe in a two-state solution where one of the two is Jewish, then get off your bum and make it clear - that recognition of Palestine comes with a strong declaration and policy that no-one living in it is or can be or will be recognized by your country as a "refugee from Palestine", that you are therefore defunding UNRWA, that there is no such thing as a "right of return" into another sovereign state in which one has never been a citizen or ever lived. Then we'll know you're serious. Anything else is lazy virtue signaling, worthy of an Anthropology student in the US, not a government of a proper country.

I didn’t know this. Wow. Watch—

@EylonALevy It’s about time! Better late than never.

Hamas released a video showing thinned-down hostage Noa Argamani, a 26 year old girl taken hostage at the Nova music festival on October 7. There is no date on the video, but she has been missing for 101 days. The Palestinian terrorists taunted, “you will find out her fate tomorrow.” Here is Noa Argamani before and during Hamas captivity.
