Six hundred thousand settlers on the West Bank are a very big obstacle – for sure. Do they make a two state solution impossible? Not at all.
In 1962 there were a million and half French settlers in Algeria. Did that make the independence of Algeria impossible? Not at all.
How did De Gaulle evacuate a million and half settlers? He did not. He evacuated the French Army and granted Algeria independence, and a million and half settlers hastened to evacuate themselves. An Israeli government which would be really interested in peace could do the same in the West Bank, with the same result.

As well as colourful four-letter words, English also has a variety of sayings, of which “power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely” is a well-known old (archae-) liberal saw.Since the beginnings of Manifest Destiny getting on now for two hundred years ago, a substantial part of the US establishment/power structures has very sincerely believed in the right- nay, the duty- of Yanks to go where they want, take what they want and bask in the glow of self-righteousness.Obama, like Abbas, is a front-man or puppet for the plutocrats, benighted “Zionist Christians” and other assorted ratbags who have many or most ordinary folk in their thrall. We know from the jingos in the UK (at least since the Boer War) how twisted , malevolent but powerful forces can manipulate the poor old general public, urging it to support war , even extermination.In the particulars of the Palestine situation,Alan hart has , again, given an insightful and positive proposal.However,with the natural tendency of a proportion of expatriates (in this case, say, Palestinians settled in Chile, for example)to wish to have no more involvement in their home country, I doubt if sufficient diaspora Palestinian opinion will organise itself to back a re-invigorated PNC.I really feel that time is running out, for the sensible “one-state” solution, the “two-state” solution has always been a confidence trick, of course. we can note that the condemnation of US intervention in Nicaragua by the world court was ignored, and has gone down the memory hole.Might is Right…

..From Europe to Asia, from the far reaches of Africa to war-torn capitals of the Middle East, we stand for freedom, for justice, for dignity. These are values that have guided our nation since its founding.”
oh, yeh, those same values are being raped anywhere the NATO troops put their feet

This essay echoes the views of most Palestinians, helpless as in reality they are. Palestine has seen many conquerors in the past. They have all come and gone and, for the time being, a waiting game by the Palestinians is perhaps not a bad choice. As for Obama, the poor chap is merely following orders of the real, but invisible, power that effectively controls the upper strata of governance in the US for the benefit of Israel’s patrons. What is really needed, not only for the sake of Palestinians, but for the sake of mankind too if endless wars are to be avoided, is a process of decontamination of Washington DC. Perhaps the impending economic and financial collapse of the US will accelerate the process.

One has to excuse Barack Ben Obama for lying from both sides of his mouth. Most of American presidents are known for such behavior. I’m sure Obama knows very well that ISIS is Zionist creation to demonize Islam and Muslims for the benefit of Israel – but no American politician can say that in public fearing for his/her political career – or even for his/her life.
