If so, a historic occasion. Not sure how it will turn out though.

America will veto, state won't happen....

The world supports a Palestinian state now, only the US and Israel, both becoming more and more isolated and veiwed now as not trustworthy in this matters, oppose it. Words don't mean much. I'm surprised this didn't happen before once it became obvious that the US has not been an honest broker in this matter.
People are sick to death of this issue and true or not, the Israelis and the US are now viewed as dishonest by the world. The US should hand over the negotiating to someone else. They appear to be biased, true or not, and therefore not trusted. We need to get our own house in order anyhow and decades of game playing has not moved the issue forward one bit. So we failed, let someone else try.
