  Biden's just playing diplomacy. hes being polite for the cameras but at the same time telling Bibi what to expect from him and his administration. >
  
  To which Bibi will just ignore him. Like he ignored Obama's attempts. Bibi and most of the Israeli government are interested in one thing, complete control over Palestinians land. With as few Palestinians being allowed to stay so they remain as a minority in the country. >

  The Israeli government has ignored/disregarded a "two state solution" since the 70s.
  The Camp David Accords during the Carter administration achieved a peace with Egypt, but left the Palestinians still in limbo. >
  
  Well, I was specifically speaking of Bibi himself.
  If we're speaking about the Israeli government ignoring/disregarding a "two state solution", that's been going on since they were founded. They took a lot of land that the 1947 UN Resolution 181 had set aside for a "future" Palestinian state during the 1947-1948 Palestinian Civil War. 
  And before anyone goes "But the Arabs refused to sign the agreement", of course they did! There were no representatives from the Palestinians brought to the table. The Israeli's had people sitting at the table representing their interest. They had lobbyist groups fighting hard to push for the creation of Israel. And at the end, they got like 90% of what they wanted, where as the Palestinians got nothing other then being told they had to leave their land that in some cases their family had lived on for hundreds of years.
  As for the Camp David Accords, peace with Egypt was inevitable. Egypt wrecked Israel in the 1973 Yom Kipper War, and as much as Israel likes to claim they were winning at the end, they were burning themselves thin. Their southern forces were practically wiped out, where as the Egyptians still had plenty of forces, albeit separated and fighting independently from one another, still making plenty of headway by the time a truce was called. >
  
  Netanyahu is prioritizing expanding settlements in the West Bank. Being that the West Bank is internationally recognized as occupied territory, transferring a civilian population there is very clearly a war crime (Source: ICRC). Yes Biden has done some good things, I very strongly prefer him to a Republican, but what's going on in the occupied territories amounts to apartheid according to mainstream sources (Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch etc) and the US needs to start being real about encouraging a solution instead of paying lip service and letting Israel do whatever it wants. >
  
  Does Netanyahu support a two-state solution? >
  
  No way lol >
  
  Yeah, didn’t think so. Seems like they’re headed for a pretty immediate impasse. >
  
  Alternate headline: Biden to deliver status quo. >
  
  Hmmm. Jared Kushner was supossed to solve this just a few years ago, if I remember correctly. >
  
  nice of Biden to keep fueling the apartheid regime of Israel against the Palestinians who merely want the ability to not live in military occupation from the land they grew up in >
  
  The US supports a two state solution in the context of Indian reservations in the US >
  
  You can't do both. You support Ben or you support the two state solution.
