The agreement must establish Palestine as a homeland for the Palestinian people, just as Israel is a homeland for the Jewish people. These negotiations must ensure that Israel has secure, recognized, and defensible borders. And they must ensure that the state of Palestine is viable, contiguous, sovereign, and independent.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thus spoke President George W Bush.<\/p>\n<p>The occupied territories, have been occupied by Israel since Israel whipped the combined forces of seven Arab nations. This is important, because, historically, conquest is how nations acquire land.<br \/>\nThe US, with the Louisiana Purchase from France and the purchase of Alaska from Russia, is one of the very few, if not the only nation to have expanded it&#8217;s borders by purchasing, rather than conquering lands. That Israel has been, for the past sixty years, the only democracy in the region, should be enough of a reason to side with the Israelis on this question. That they are hated for the race and religion of their populace should bring liberals screaming out of the woodwork to defend them. That Arab nations have funded the &#8220;palestinian&#8221; campaign of terrorism against Israel is another reason the US should stand with Israel.<\/p>\n<p>Not too long ago, President Bush stated that other nations are either with us or are with the terrorists and that the United States would fight terrorism and those who support it anywhere and everywhere it is found. Well, damn, George, what happened to that? The Israelis have tried, time and again to negotiate a peace with those Arabs who call themselves palestinian. The palestinians and their supporters, the terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah have bombed, murdered and fired rockets into Israel in direct violation of treaties they begged and pleaded for.LV Sun\/AP story<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There should be an end to the occupation that began in 1967.
