The Obama Administration, along with most of the Western world, continues to fool itself into thinking that the Arabs want peace with Israel, and two states living side-by-side. This is despite the fact that the Arabs themselves have never explicitly said so.
Here is Hamas’ most recent example.
______________________________
Hamas head Khaled Mashaal gave a speech Thursday evening in response to a policy speech given by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu several days earlier. Mashaal proclaimed that Hamas is ready to cooperate with the international community in order to reach a deal with Israel, but only under conditions it deems favorable.
Specifically, Mashaal rejected every proposal supported by Israel, including Netanyahu’s insistence that the Palestinian Authority recognize Israel as a Jewish state. Hamas will never recognize Israel as a Jewish state, because it hopes to see millions of descendants of Arab residents of pre-state Israel “return” to the area, potentially turning Israel into a majority-Arab state, Mashaal explained.
He rejected Netanyahu’s proposal that the PA form a demilitarized state within Judea, Samaria and Gaza. “A demilitarized state is a miserable state, not a serious entity,” he stated.
Mashaal also insisted that an Arab state in Judea and Samaria be granted Jerusalem as its capital.
While stating his readiness to cooperate, Mashaal compared Israel to Nazi Germany and expressed support for terrorism. “[Israel] failed in its Nazi war on Gaza, just as it failed in Lebanon,” he said. “This was due to the resistance, not to dialogue, which serves only to hide the true face of occupation.”
Mashaal praised United States President Barack Obama for “using new language” with Israel, but called on the U.S. leader to do more. “We’re hoping for real pressure on the Israelis,” he said.

What the Arabs want is not two states living side-by-side in peace, but instead a Phakestinian State created so it can be used to destroy Israel – all according to the PLO Phased Plan.
The Arabs have never wanted “two states”, and have honestly never stated such. “Two states” is simply what the West wants to hear, and thus we pretend that it has been said. Every act by the Arabs regarding Israel (as acknowledged again by Hamas) is in furtherance of their goal to destroy Israel. They want Judea, Samaria and Gaza to chip away at the body of Israel, and they insist on Jerusalem as their capitol because they know it will destroy Israel’s heart and soul. The “demand of so-called Return” is to create a cancer within the Jewish state.
Every Arab act of “peace” is to destroy Israel. It is about time the West (especially the U.S.) woke up to this fact.
