The Inconvenient Truth: Palestine does not want a State

It all started with the UN resolution 181 (United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine): Jews accepted, Arabs didn’t. For the latter “it was all or nothing” and nothing was what they got. Now, did all Arabs share this opinion? No, there were certainly many who were more than willing to live along side with their Jewish neighbours, however Arab political and religious leaders had a different agenda and so decided not only to instil hate against the Jews but mainly to condemn their own people to decades of misery and lack of a nation to call their own.

Please see below the State that Palestinians could have had:

The State of Israel was established on the 14th of May 1948. Shortly after, it was attacked by 5 Arab States (Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon & Syria), who lost the war but commenced a series of events known as the Arab-Israeli conflict. 62 years have passed, the conflict persists and the common Palestinian still has no nation. Why? Because the Palestinian Politicians have no interest in running a country since by not doing so they are getting rich through international donations: the US has committed, from 1993 to 2004, more than $1.3 Billion; the EU donated, from 1993 to 2001, $4 Billion...now do the math (for more, click Here). 

One of the proofs that Philistian politicians have no interest in governing a nation, in administering a land, is the way they stall around the table of peace negotiations, by insisting upon the same old demands (knowing, praying, that a compromise will never be reached):

Jerusalem – Muslims claim this city as “the third holiest site in Islam” based on the writings (fabricated, during the 1930's, for political and religious purposes) of the grand mufti Mohammed Amin al-Husseini and not on the Al-Quran (where the city is not once mentioned). Arabs occupied this city, then they rejected it (by rejecting the Partition Plan), and now they want it as their capital knowing that it will never happen (not even the Israeli Left was willing to concede this – see Ehud Olmert's Peace Map click Here). Why don’t they choose Bethlehem as their capital?

Palestinian refugees – If PA would stop being corrupt and finally accept to build a nation these refugees could actually go to a country of their own. I ask, why the insistence upon allocating these people in Jewish Land (where their status would never change)? Wouldn’t they be better off in a Palestinian Land, to call home (with full citizen rights)?

Palestine doesn’t want a state because for its politicians “money is the sweetest hangover” and the Palestinian people, they were supposed to serve, are nothing but an instrument through which they raise more cash for their pockets (reminding me of African Leaders and their profitable Poverty Propagandas, with the sole difference that they already have their nations). Shame on you, Mahmoud Abbas & Co! Shame on you, Ismail Haniyeh & Co!
