While Israel, nearly three years later, is still reeling from the aftermath of the October 7, 2023 Hamas-led invasion as well as defending itself from the Iranian regime and its terror proxies, European leaders are once again indulging in their dangerous fantasy of resurrecting the so-called two-state solution.
At a recent gathering in Brussels attended by more than 60 countries and several international organizations under the banner of the "Global Alliance for the Implementation of the Two-State Solution," the European Union reaffirmed its support for the "two-state solution" -- a formula that means establishing a Palestinian state -- which has not the slightest intention of cohabiting with Israel -- right at Israel's doorstep.
According to onereport, Belgian Foreign Minister Maxime Prévot said during the meeting that participants "cannot abandon the compass," referring to maintaining a "political track" despite escalating crises. Prévot said developments in the Middle East are affecting the stability of the region and beyond, and called for continued international efforts to revive "the political process" – and an aspirantgenocidalstate.
"EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said the bloc 'can and must do more' to bring the two-state solution back to negotiations more effectively."
"[Kallas] reiterated that the two-state solution remains 'the only way for both Palestinians and Israelis to live in safety, dignity, and peace.'"
Her assertion would be laughable were it not so dangerously detached from reality.
The most accurate response would be a quoteattributedto the late US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger: "The lion shall lie down with the lamb so long as there is a fresh lamb every morning."
Let us begin with the most basic question EU policymakers refuse to answer: to whom exactly do they intend to hand this Palestinian state?
To the Palestinian Authority, widely viewed, even by its own people, as "irredeemably corrupt,"terrorist,repressive, andillegitimate, and committed todisplacingIsrael? Or to Hamas, an internationally designatedterrorist organizationopenly committed toIsrael's destruction?
With the Palestinians, there is no third option.
