and it's up to those in power in Israel to allow all citizens equal rights. The "two-state solution" is pushed by the segregationists.

Your history is all wrong, which is not surprising, since you regard ancient mythology as fact.

Israel has never given up anything. Israel never owned the Gaza Strip. It's Palestinian territory, along with the West Bank, which Israel is continuing to seize. The Israelis continue to steal from the native Palestinians, and you seem to think that is just fine, since you believe in ancient mythology.
