Israel Will Be Palestine by Gilad Atzmon

A meeting between Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad and Israeli
deputy foreign minister Danny Ayalon ended abruptly yesterday. The
dispute followed the Israeli deputy foreign minister's demand that the
meeting's summary should refer to the notion of 'two states for two
peoples,' rather than just 'two states.'
"I wanted that at the very least it will note two states for two
peoples. I demanded to know what they meant. One Palestinian state and
one bi-national state, or another Palestinian state?" the deputy
minister told Ynet. "I made it clear that we were out of the picture
if the summary didn't say two states for two peoples."
The Palestinian PM could not accept such a demand for very many
reasons: Israel is located on historic Palestine. It came to life
through robbery and ethnic cleansing. It is maintained by theft. At
least a fifth of Israel's population are Palestinians. And if this is
not enough, not a single living Palestinian negotiator is ever going
to let the refugee issue go, and for a good reason. The right of
return is still the crux of the Palestinian cause.
Interestingly enough, within the context of the two states solution, a
Palestinian state would be geographically defined: it would be a state
of its citizens, and it would also be a civilised amalgam of different
ethnicities and religions. Israel, on the other hand, would be a
racially orientated setting: it would be the Jewish State, where Jews
come first. I wonder why anyone in the international community would
support such a solution or such a state. However, I wasn't surprised
to read in Ynet that Tony Blair, who participated in the earlier part
of the meeting yesterday, "supported the Israeli stance". I guess that
after dragging us all into a religious war with no end, Blair has
developed an affinity with Judeo-centric arguments and the Zionist way
of thinking. After all, let's not forget, it was Zionist Lord Levy
and the Labour Friends of Israel who funded his party at the time it
launched the war in Iraq.
It also shouldn't take us by surprise that the current rounds of talks
are leading nowhere. In fact, given that Zionism does not include
peaceful political precepts, the Israel-Palestine conflict cannot be
resolved by the current peace talks or any kind of resolution
dominated by the Zionist world view . The Jewish state presents itself
as a revival of the Biblical Israelite nation, and this means in
practice, a disastrous conflict with no end. This conflict is probably
the greatest threat for world peace, but it is certainly tragic also
for Israelis who are being born into a doomed reality set by a
phantasmic Biblical tale.
In the meeting, Ayalon said that "Israel will continue to support the
Palestinian economy, even without its consent", but he also noted that
"Israel's security needs must also be taken into consideration".
Instead of being motivated by a sincere desire for peace and a spirit
of reconciliation, Israeli policy makers are committed to the
philosophy of 'carrot and stick' : they offer a combination of
'rewards' and 'punishment' to induce 'good subservient behaviour'
amongst the Palestinians. The Palestinians are constantly offered very
little while at the same time, the IDF is ready to unleash its deadly
might. Israelis are basically buying time, yet, by doing so, they
clearly sacrifice their future. It is no secret that for Palestinians
to win, all they need is time.
The 'two states solution' is a futile idea and it is about time the
International community stopped wasting any effort in trying to
achieve such a resolution. The facts on the ground are clear, as
Daniel McGowan clearly suggested a few months ago:
"Within the current borders controlled by Israel (including pre-1967
Israel, the West Bank, Gaza and the Golan Heights) there is in fact a
single state. It has one electrical grid, one water system, one
currency, one major highway system, one postal service, and one
external border. Goods and people entering this de facto state come
through harbors, airports, and a restricted number of crossings. Bills
of lading and passports are checked and stamped by officials of this
single state."
This one state is momentarily called Israel, and it is dominated
ideologically by Jewish racism and fuelled practically by Talmudic
supremacy. However, this will change. Against all odds, the Israeli
nuclear power, Jewish lobbies around the world, F-35 stealth planes
and Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister's enthusiasm, Israel will become a
state of its citizens and by the time this happens, it will be called
Palestine.

WARNING FROM RAEL: For those who don't use their intelligence at its full
capacity, the label "selected by RAEL" on some articles does not mean that I
agree with their content or support it. "Selected by RAEL" means that I believe
it is important for the people of this planet to know about what people think or
do, even when what they think or do is completely stupid and against our
philosophy. When I selected articles in the past about stupid Christian
fundamentalists in America praying for rain, I am sure no Rael-Science reader
was stupid enough to believe that I was supporting praying to change the
weather. So, when I select articles which are in favor of drugs, anti-semitic,
anti-Jewish, racist, revisionist, or inciting hatred against any group or
religion, or any other stupid article, it does not mean that I support them. It
just means that it is important for all human beings to know about them. Common
sense, which is usually very good among our readers, is good enough to
understand that. When, like in the recent articles on drug decriminalization, it
is necessary to make it clearer, I add a comment, which in this case was very
clear: I support decriminalizing all drugs, as it is stupid to throw depressed
and sad people (as only depressed and sad people use drugs) in prison and ruin
their life with a criminal record. That does not mean that there is any change
to the Message which says clearly that we must not use any drug except for
medical purposes. The same applies to the freedom of expression which must be
absolute. That does not mean again of course that I agree with anti-Jews,
antisemites, racists of any kind or anti-Raelians. But by knowing your enemies
or the enemies of your values, you are better equipped to fight them. With love
and respect of course, and with the wonderful sentence of the French philosopher
Voltaire in mind: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death
your right to say it".

"Ethics" is simply a last-gasp attempt by deist conservatives and
orthodox dogmatics to keep humanity in ignorance and obscurantism,
through the well tried fermentation of fear, the fear of science and
new technologies.
There is nothing glorious about what our ancestors call history,
it is simply a succession of mistakes, intolerances and violations.
On the contrary, let us embrace Science and the new technologies
unfettered, for it is these which will liberate mankind from the
myth of god, and free us from our age old fears, from disease,
death and the sweat of labour.
