Why the Palestinian-Israel Problem is Complex
This article shows the difficulty of the two-state solution. President Obama could be ready for talks to create a two-state solution, yet this article shows how many people in different countries are involved in the protection/defense of Palestine or the attack on Israel. (Interpret defense/offense however you wish.)
Hezbollah was operating its forces in Egypt, according to the source. Luckily, Egypt was smart enough to stop the situation because though Hezbollah claims its aim was protection of Palestine, Egypt does not know if there is some kind of threat against Egypt itself, especially when Obama plans to speak in Egypt soon.
Next, the weapons for Hezbollah were possibly shipped through Lebanon, our ally.
Now my rant.
Two allies--Egypt and Lebanon--contain people in that land that demonstrate a threat to Israel. If Barack Obama plans to ask governments to promote a two-state solution, do these countries, such as Egypt, Lebanon, and Jordan, have the operatives and technologies to stop any kind of political threats against Palestine and Israel?
If countries cannot control terrorist networks, which, I believe, will enhance as a two-state solution continues to be discussed, how will Palestine and Israel ever reach such a practical agreement.
My simple point: Countries must be willing to arrest any kind of terrorist networks in their area and still allow individual citizen freedoms to thrive. Will this happen?
I am skeptical.
However, I wish all Muslims, Jews, Christians, Zoroastrians, Hindus, Sikhs, and other religions PEACE in the MIDDLE EAST!
Yet, my experiences tell me that when Jimmy Carter helped create allies between Israel and Egypt, people died, including the Egyptian President! Jimmy Carter thankfully lived, but we are so far away from the blood and gore yet must realize responsibility also belongs on us!
