A veteran Democratic lawmaker hits back at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after the premier’s spokesman claimed that US-led efforts to establish a Palestinian state after October 7 would amount to a “gift” for the Palestinians.
“A two-state solution is not a ‘gift.’ It is the only viable solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict,” Rep. Jerry Nadler tweets.
“Israel must be able to defend itself, particularly after the horrors of October 7, but long-run security will only come through an appropriately negotiated solution that involves rebuilding Gaza and establishing a Palestinian state in Gaza and the West Bank with adequate security and governance plans,” he adds.
