i just want to touch on what israel had to about this — of course, israel not a member of the security council — but representatives calling the proposal "shameful" and essentially saying that a recognition of statehood for palestine six months after the attacks by hamas on israel would've been a reward for terrorism — kind of paraphrasing there. do you agree with that? of course not. that's preposterous. it is the reverse of the truth. it would have been a great victory for the fatah, for the palestinians who want to talk to israel and do a deal with israel, rather than the palestinians who want to shoot at israelis. but, you know, this israeli government is an extremist government. it is committed to annexation. it is opposed to a two—state solution. it has a lot of people in it who, if they were palestinians, would find hamas to be too wishy—washy for them, and they are very radical. and so, of course, they make up some absurd sort of up is down, down is up logic like this, where a move that might have strengthened the plo and the palestinian authority, the palestinians who
