Biden urged Netanyahu to work toward a Palestinian state

Why Aren’t We Talking About the Two-State Solution to the Israeli-Palestinian Cross-Section?

Why am I saying this? Netanyahu made very clear at the news conference on Thursday that he only hints at in recent weeks. He will argue that the Americans and Palestinians want to force a Palestinian state down Israel’s throat, and that he is the only Israeli leader able to resist them. So vote for me, even if I messed up on Oct. 7 and the Gaza war is not going all that great. We have not been protected from Biden’s plans for Gaza to become part of a Palestinian state along with the West Bank.

President Biden urged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel on Friday to agree to the creation of a Palestinian state after the war in Gaza is over and raised other options that would make the prospect more palatable to Israel.

The president told reporters at the White House several hours after the call there were a number of types of two-state solutions. Many countries that are part of the U.N. do not have their own militaries. There are a number of states that have limitations. He added, “And so I think there’s ways in which this could work.”
