Hello from Grenada

Why do you spend so much time on these assumptions instead of facing reality and working on constructive actions to help the conditions now????

Because it has not worked.

What has not worked? We want peace but we have to steal more land first!!!

End the brutal occupation and respect human rights for ALL.

End your bias please.

Who is bias?

Florence, everyone here is in agreement the status quo needs alteration; hence the effort to create an alternative.

Here we are giving veto power to the citizens of each areas and passing power to each of the people who are voting in these areas. The power belongs to the people.

The power here is with the people not the politicians.

If the primary body cannot resolve the situation, then perhaps this body can.

So?

If Israeli government wants to dismantle the settlements, they can

I gotta eat breakfast. be right back

We are not addressing particular problems here, we are just setting up the framework for peace.

Do you understand the term Constitution?

Pros Ben-Meir errs by not distinguishing between a State and a government. All the governments concerned can be confederated even while all may not recognize the existing Palestine State.

Furthermore Ben-Meir is not recognizing either the Israeli Civil Society or the Palestinian. Our Confederation is based in the Direct Democracy that bypasses the existing governments.

I am back as a Israeli parliament member

Me too.

UN already has schools that Hamas ect disagree with. they are still allowed to teach

Less freedom of speech in US than here. One must be politically correct in US. Even my synagogue turned me out of Zooming because I verbally disagreed with them.

I must speak to Israelis only here. Can't speak truth in US - they are playing Tom Sawyer in Huckleberry Finn and white-washing fences, rather than cleaning out rotting wood before painting over.

already had a online election in 2012 where hundreds participated willingly

Len’s objection re textbooks is have two books instead of having the two stories in one book, but he has no objection to both being taught to the same students

OK

If the past is any guide, we can have an online election. If we can’t, then Israel is not a democracy (a very accurate assessment in my mind, if what the professor maintains is in fact the case).

so the Israelis and Palestinians will not sit Down, but the Israelis, Palestinian s, and JordaniAnS WILL?

He just spoke truth, it's a mind set that keeps things as they are and unable to create new

The people will not ask the politicians.

that's what e are trying to build with all due respect

Globilization has raised millions of people out of poverty around the world. A joint economic zone is globalization.

Game over. Israel is a dictatorship.

Your vote is completely wrong. I agree with Josef

it's been vetoed. let's move on. this can be re proposed in the hypothetical future

Because Israel is the bully

with all due respect I think the famous guests should at least skim the ipc constitution that has been published

I am confident if we held a online election tommarow, thousands would vote for a 3rd way to a PATH TO NEGOTIATION AND DIPLOMACY

status quo has failed

It is time to think new because to date nothing is working and both peoples are suffering

this is true but Israel prevents the Israelis from meeting with the Palestinians

So let all the people have this same experience, meeting the "other" and sharing personal stories

Sorry -have to leave.

Check out ALLMEP, 150 groups large and small working together in Israel/Palestine to build relationships, all grass roots

ALLMEP is Alliance for Middle East Peace and is all about people to people who want to live together

sorry I need to leave

I think what is misunderstood is that the ipc CAN exist without a formal agreement between Israel and Palestine. there would be no point of taking this third way if the Palestinians Authority (and Hamas) and Israel were even talking

Does the professor recognize NAKBA?

it's all been a failure "one state or "two state." this third way seems to be the only way forward to even have diplomacy and negotiations and compromise
