I find this interesting, first of all if Palestine were admitted it would bring some order to
their behavior as they would have to be responsible to a recognized world authority.
Palestine as an entity would also for the Arab States of the dime to see Palestine as
an entity rather that a victim they can speak for while continuing their quarrel with
Israel. Yes it would give the Palestinians a voice but it would come with a demand for
restraint and responsibility and that would ensure that both sides would have to talk in
an honest fashion something neither do at the moment.
I also find it troubling that America would veto the measure to allow recognition. After
all America was the first nation to recognize Israel if they did the same for Palestine it
would allow America much more stature in the region and they could be more of a peace
broker than ever. Is it not America that is trying to reach out to the world to lift up the
oppressed and disadvantaged? We hear that all the time so, is it not so and just for show?
This recognition would take Palestine from victim to self respect and at the same time limit
the behavior of the radicals within the movement and it would give the nation of Palestine
a measured place in the world that could lead to peace. Good God we wouldn't want
peace would we?
