There's always been only one barrier to the two-nation solution - the continual refusal of the Palestinians to accept Israel's right to exist. Once the Palestinians, PLO and Hamas accept that right - the dominoes will fall. As for the settlements - on land that was acquired in 1967 when Arab nations attacked  with no other objective than to DESTROY Israel - either you use the land, or you use it. It is the only bargaining chip that Israel can play in negotiations for a two-state solution - land for peace. Meanwhile, the world stands by as Russia takes over the Crimea and continues to occupy the Ukraine. UN hypocrisy - as usual. When will the MSM wake up?
