That Israel’s rightward lurch over the last decade signals that it isn’t interested in a lasting peace either, at least not one that allows for Palestinian self rule.

If you have heard anything from the current Israeli administration, its clear they don’t believe in a two state solution, and much of the rhetoric is about driving Gazans out of Gaza, and making life for residents of the West Bank miserable as well. They’re one step away from annexing the West Bank and ethnically cleansing their residents and have basically already done as much in Gaza by flattening it and withholding aid. Not sure why I should believe it’s government anymore than Hamas at this point.
