Palestine isn't a country.

You just said it was.

Both Egypt and blah blah blah blah blah

See there you go again with the "but other countries do it too!" Genug! I'm sick of hearing it!

Either point to a murderer who was acquitted on the grounds that other people commit murder too or knock it the fuck off.

Jordan and Egypt have peace treaties with Israel, not to mention their own internal strifes.

Which confirms my previous point that they are irrelevant to the current political calculations.

When was the last time Israeli terrorists blew up a Palestinian bus? Or committed any other sort of violence against Palestinians aside from price tag attacks?

What, you need a list of all of the "targeted killings" that Israel has done without oversight? Mosques hit by Israeli missiles?

As if the blockade wasn't enough.

Again, Palestine is not a country, it exists in limbo because its nominal leaders have yet to bring themselves to serious peace negotiations with Israel for 66 years.

The second part of your sentence is unrelated to the first. Even if they declared war on Israel, it wouldn't make Palestine not a country. Even if they did begin serious peace negotiations, it wouldn't change their state of limbo except to the extent that Israel might offer them greater independence.

Now, I can understand if you're trying to say Palestine is not a country because Israel exerts control over it on a scale comparable to its "nominal leaders" since that's sort of what I've been commenting on.

They are trying to "leave them alone" as you put it, the only problem is if they did that right now, they would likely create a vacuum in which a terror state set on destructing Israel would likely rise in its place.

"Terror state?" Seriously?

Meanwhile, people like you can't have it both ways, where you condemn Israel for both trying to build up infrastructure and for trying to give the Palestinians self-determination.

Sigh. What a senseless waste of straw and cloth. What did that scarecrow do to you?

Anti-Israel protestors sued French companies for helping to maintain the "Israeli occupation of East Jerusalem", but would have also been upset had the line bypassed the Arab neighborhoods entirely, denying the Palestinians the same access to public transportation that the Israelis have.

Ah, so according to you, I'm both an "anti-Israel protestor" who is suing a French company and a completely hypothetical person you just made up who, if he existed, would complain about denying transportation access.

How many straw men do you plan to shred before this is over?

I know more about what you are saying than you do.

Considering your previous statement, I tend to doubt that.

You can't even figure out what I'm saying.
