Reckoning With Israel’s ‘One State Reality’ | The Ezra Klein Show

Posted on by Lone Candle

The two-state solution seems dead. After the second intifada, Israel gave up on it, and has resolved on a one-state solution where Israel dominates the entire territory and Palestinians not living in Israel proper are second-class citizens.

Despite being hit hard, Hezbollah is rebuilding and rearming. Lebanon is unwilling to disarm Hezbollah because Shiites would see it as a threat to all Lebanese Shiites and it would cause a civil war. A localized war for a few months against Israel is a lot better than a civil war that could be much longer and destroy much of the country. Hezbollah sees their ultimate enemy as the United States which they see as the font of corruption. Hezbollah cooperates with anti-American elements and governments in Latin America.

The expulsion of Dr. Rasha Alawieh, 34, is set to be the focus of a hearing on Monday before a federal judge in Boston, who on Sunday demanded information on whether U.S. Customs and Border Protection had “willfully” disobeyed his order.”
