Maisoon Ali, a Palestinian banker, has a message for visiting U.S Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken.
Blinken, wrapping up a three-day visit to the Middle East on Tuesday, met with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and other officials in the West Bank city of Ramallah, a day after extended consultations with Israel’s prime minister, president and foreign minister.
Years of failed, occasionally bad-faith negotiations, interspersed with periods of violence from both sides, have only achieved a modicum of sovereignty for Palestinians while Israel continued to permit tens of thousands of Jewish settlers to move into West Bank lands claimed by the Palestinians. The heavily guarded Israeli settlements have effectively made creating a contiguous state next to impossible.
Opinion polls have shown support for the two-state vision declining steadily among Palestinians, reflecting frustration and a sense that a viable state will never happen. Instead, many Palestinians now support the so-called one-state solution, a single country with both Israelis and Palestinians but, importantly, one with equal rights for both communities. At the same time, a majority doubts Israel would ever grant such liberties to Palestinians.
It was the lowest level of support for the concept among Palestinians and Israelis since the poll was first conducted in June 2016, the head of the center, Khalil Shikaki, said in a statement announcing the survey.

Blinken visit reaches new urgency as Israeli, Palestinian tensions boil | CNNUS Secretary of State Antony Blinken's trip to Israel and the West Bank may have been in the works for weeks, but it couldn't come at a more pressing time. Both Palestinians and Israelis have suffered bloodshed in the last few days, and fears are growing that the situation will spiral out of control. Almost like the attack was planned?!? That non sense why would anybody plan an attack with drones and then immodestly ask for peace talks. It’s almost like when when people visited S. Korea and there was missiles attacks after. Crazy turn of events

Blinken visit deepens Israeli and Palestinian skepticism about U.S. roleU.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken is promoting the long-held dream of two states side by side — one Israeli, one Palestinian — as the best guarantor of peace. That is not the dream of the Palestinians. Never has been, never will be. Their dreams are quite different. Doesn't Blinken have ties to the Biden center at Penn where classified documents were discovered? Can he be trusted?

Yeah. That’ll work. SecBlinken Instead of urging calm how about urging a systemic societal change among the vast majority of so-called Palestinians. Their foreign instilled derangement is blinding them to their only true friend. This is from where the peace will arise.
