US ambassador to Israel says US no longer pursuing goal of independent Palestinian state

Hope for humanity really is just dead. It was a great idea, but just way too early. Probably have at least another 2k years to go before we get our act together. If we even last that long.
I figure the corvids and raccoons deserve a chance to be dominant species at this point.

Get over yourself mate. We haven't memory holed genocide Joe.
To the downvoters. Biden supplied the weapons, the political cover and the witchunt against domestic dissent. These policies were all continued by Trump.
Matthew Miller and Blinken shed lots of crocodile tears but continued to support Netanyahu for 18 months. There was no serious effort at stopping the genocide under the Democrats
Great, now you got the genocide still going AND a fascist takeover of your country, with even less possibility to change anything and plenty of distractions to the Palestinians cause because your country is falling apart around you.

I really, really hope that one of them develops a higher heat tolerance and can pick up vaguely where we left off. Hopefully the ecosystem isn't fucked enough to just kill everything.

Genocide Joe walked so Fascist Donald could run.
Fascism didn't start in January. It's been a steady, forty-year march aided and abetted by every president since Carter.

You know it's democracy when the policies of 340 million people can flip-flop based on the whims of a handful of moronic hateful shitbirds.
It's not the handful, unfortunately.
The handful has no real power.
The problem is that 49% on each side flip-flop based on whoever's in power, because their values and opinions are a matter of convenience, and perfectly easy to change with their preferred nightly news broadcast.

How can Israel cede territory that was never theirs?
They have nukes and the Palestinians don't. That's how.

Mike Huckabee suggested any future Palestinian state should be carved out of ‘a Muslim country’
Mike Huckabee, the US ambassador to Israel, has said that the US is no longer pursuing the goal of an independent Palestinian state, marking what analysts describe as the most explicit abandonment yet of a cornerstone of US Middle East diplomacy.
Asked during an interview with Bloomberg News if a Palestinian state remains a goal of US policy, he replied: “I don’t think so.”
The former Arkansas governor chosen by Donald Trump as his envoy to Israel went further by suggesting that any future Palestinian entity could be carved out of “a Muslim country” rather than requiring Israel to cede territory.
Those probably won’t happen “in our lifetime”, he told the news agency.
He meant either free Palestine not happen soon or his life ends soon. I think he’s just cursing himself.

Thank God we saved Palestine from Biden, right protest voters?
Right?Biden is past episode. CUVFEC is the main problem.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]You're correct in the general sense. But it's not even 49%. It's basically 2-10% of the American electorate. They flip-flop based on their own myopic, selfish impulses, and whatever bullshit they've been fed by the media.
In 2016 they swung it for Trump because unlike his opponent he's a white guy, they didn't like Clinton, and because Trump's promises of cheaper gas for their big trucks would save them a bit of money each month.
In 2020 they swung for Biden because he's also a white guy, they had discovered Trump just caused chaos without really delivering any personal benefits to them, and Biden looked like the more stable option for their pocket book.
In 2024 they swung for Trump again because unlike his opponent he's a white guy, and they apparently have fucking goldfish memories.
Meanwhile, millions of other people in America and elsewhere in the world are being put through hell to a lesser or greater degree because of these people.

Right?Israel is done. It'll take a few years more, but Trump abandoned Israel and the world is turning its back. Palestine will be free, and only then you also will be free.
Until then, you'll keep bouncing back between openly fascist and polite fascist like the good little wage slave that you are.
This was Biden's genocide, you can never take that away from him.

I generally agree with your premise up until the point where you argue for accelerating the rise of fascism.
NOTHING has been gained by this, NOTHING changed for the better, it only got harder to bring about change.
The people who could've mobilized and fought for those causes are now busy trying to stop the gestapo from deporting their neighbors. -

Either you're putting up a straw man or you didn't read what I wrote correctly.

He correctly understood the context in which you wrote it, which was defending fascist-accelerationist non-voters and third-party voters.

I won't even bother entertaining you or them, but just for funsies, go look up who gave Tom Homan his first federal appointment.
You're welcome to your incorrect interpretation, and I hope you have a pleasant evening.

So a one state solution, right?
Right?

In their minds, they've made up a fake alternate history where it all belongs to them.

I mean as disgusting as this is he is really just saying the quiet part loud. There was never any plan to give the Palestinians a state. Oslo was a con to legitimise land confiscation and to neutralise the Palestinian resistance of the time (the PLO).
The US did literally nothing while the Zionists flooded the West Bank with settlements over the last 30 years but kept up the "2 state solution" as a rhetorical shield.
People just like to pretend the quite part "aka Biden - Obama policies" was never been there.
If at any given point, the US said "sanction for two state solution" it will take a few months before they come to a solution.

This is a pathetic take.

It’s a correct interpretation dude. You may not like it, but it’s correct.

The messaging changed, but the policy didn't
