Bill Clinton Calls Out Ignorance: ‘Young People Don’t Know Palestinians Rejected Their Own State!’
“Look, I think what's happened there in the last 25 years is one of the great tragedies of the 21st century. And when I tell the young people, for example, who are understandably in America, they first let's say they're super sympathetic with the Palestinians. Well, they've been killed, a lot of those Palestinians have, and they had and all they know is, there's a lot more Palestinians have been killed than Israelis. And I tell them what Arafat walked away from. And they like, can't believe it.
I said, oh yeah, he walked away from a Palestinian state with a capital in East Jerusalem, 96% of the West Bank, 4% of Israel to make up for the 4% that the settlers occupy that were beyond the borders in the 67 war. And I go through all the stuff that was in the deal and they they like it's not on their radar radar screen. They can't even imagine that that happened. And I tell them, you know, the first and most famous victim of an attempt to give the Palestinians a state was prime minister Rabin. Who I, I think, loved him as much as I ever loved another man.
And so Rabin, he dies and then Perez is defeated in the election and where the rest of it is history. But you walk away from these once in a lifetime peace opportunities and you can't complain 25 years later when they the doors weren't all still open and all the possibilities weren't still there. You can't do it.”

Thank you!
I wonder how many of the people in the west who are rooting for Hamas would want to live under their rule.

My support of Israel does not stem from religion
I'm an atheist because I rely on facts to make my decisions, and religion is nonfactual
I support Israel because while they are an imperfect government (military draft and no Second Amendment, for example), they are overwhelmingly liberal, mostly secular, and protect the rights of their citizens
They treat all of their citizens as equal under the law (no matter their race or religion) and are fighting this war with the intent of self-defense from Islamic terrorism
Gaza's government, Hamas, forces its citizens to live under Islamic Sharia law and is fighting this war with the intent of killing Israelis/Jews
You don't need religion to see which side is good and which is evil here
All you need are facts

In 2022, moving to a closing tray with sterile instruments should be standard of care for colectomy procedures. It’s worth the minimal effort!! #getonthebus
