So not a democracy then?

Gaza a lost cause...you really think you can make a deal on the West Bank only? While Israel has de facto control over many parts of the Gaza Strip in violation of Geneva Conventions? https://www.btselem.org/gaza_strip/israels_obligations

Edit: At least 9,733 Palestinians and 1,253 Israelis and have been killed by someone from the other side since 2000. At least 2,197 Palestinian children and 134 Israeli children have been killed by someone from the other side since 2000.

Gaza fired what 300,000 rockets and mortars at Israel in the past 10 years? Do you expect any Israeli government to give them anything? I’m surprised they are as constraint as they are Turkey killed what over 50,0000 Kurds in the past 30 years and displaced 3 million of them for much less and I don’t see any big campus rallies against them.

And last time I checked Israel is a democracy, a federated state with a constitution to guarantee that is the only way for the situation not to deroriate into an apartheid or genocide.
