Trump Puts The Kibosh On Creating A Palestinian State
[WIRE] Former President Donald Trump said during an interview this week that he no longer supports a two-state solution between Israel and the Palestinians following the October 7 massacre.Trump made the remarks during an interview with TIME Magazine while discussing Israel’s military operation against the Hamas terrorist organization. "I’m not sure a two-state solution anymore is gonna work," Trump said. "Everybody was talking about two states, even when I was there." "There was a time when I thought two states could work," he continued. "Now I think two states is going to be very, very tough. I think it’s going to be much tougher to get. I also think you have fewer people that liked the idea. You had a lot of people that liked the idea four years ago. Today, you have far fewer people that like that idea. There may not be another idea." Trump noted that Palestinian children are taught to hate Israel from the day that they are born, which makes achieving peace nearly impossible. He also made clear that if Iran were to attack Israel, there is no question that he would defend and protect Israel. Trump’s remarks about a Palestinian state come as Israeli leaders have also shut down the idea because of the obvious security risk that it would create for Israel. Posted by: Besoeker 2024-05-05 |
