In response to Act now: The case for UN membership for Palestine is overwhelming

The State of Palestine

If we can define Palestine as historic Palestine, or all the land south of Lebanon, north of Egypt and between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, then, yes, a State of Palestine is the best idea.

This new entity would be based on one adult/one vote, full equality before the law and the right of return granted to all those displaced during and since the original Nakba.

Any plan to split, or to keep split, historic Palestine (this bit for me, that bit for you) is as doomed to eventual failure as is the current arraignment.
