[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Palestine could have been an independent state for 80 years now. And it'd be an enviable state with borders from the green hills on the border with Lebanon to the Mediterranean coast to urban areas like Hebron, Nablus, Ramallah, and Acre, and a contigious nation that went all the way down to Gaza and the Negev. In 1914, modern Syria, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Iraq, Iran, and Kuwait didn't exist. Only the Palestinian Arabs chose to be absolute morons and say no to an independent country once the Ottoman Empire collapsed in 1918. Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Iraq - none of these are perfect nation states and yet they still managed to become vibrant, authentic countries. It was only the Palestinians that went to war for an ethno-state. And it was a stupid decision. Now they choose Hamas and hated Iran They made an extremely poor decision invading Israel on 10/7. No one in the Arab world supported that. And Palestinians are going to be paying for their stupid decisions for another 100 years. Until there is a revolution among Palestinians and they choose different leadership, it is hopeless for them. [/quote] Gotta say, this sort of feels true. I previously lived in Oman (and they aren’t actually oil rich) and their progress was stunning. And they have a significant Sunni and Shia population. And yet they manage to have this beautiful and peaceful country with a booming tourism industry. Women are educated and work there. I feel so bad for the Lebanese too. This situation is not their fault and they are suffering. Lebanese people are wonderful, smart, educated people too. Lebanon is one of the most amazing places I’ve ever visited. So much potential in that area of the world. [/quote]
