1. I know that I am the occupier and not the occupied. But occupation is the greatest existential threat to the long term viability of Israel.
Israel will end occupation, or occupation will be the end of us.
2. Anything that perpetuates occupation is bad. It is devastating to the Palestinian people, their dignity &their rights to self determination, and very harmful to Israel.
3. The goal of the Trump Plan is to denationalize the Palestinians, creating occupation with deodorant.
4. Palestinians across town despair of ever ending occupation; my Israeli compatriots are in deep denial, sipping cappuccino on the edge of volcano.
5. The Trump Plan tells Palestinians to abandon hope, and Israelis not to worry about an occupation that does not exist.
6. Anyone who promotes Palestinian despair and encourages Israeli denial is an enemy of both peoples.
7. The Emirates recognition is a modular implementation of the Trump Plan. To Israelis: occupation? what occupation? to Palestinians? All ye who enter here abandon hope.
8. The crushing of the Palestinian national movement is not collateral damage for Netanyahu and Kushner, it is one of their highest priorities. The Emiratis are willing to join their chorus of "hey, Palestinian lives don't matter too much".
9. There is a special place in hell for beltway and sundry pundits who will tell you "look on the bright side", or "there's a silver lining". These are the folks who shilled for Netanyahu's perpetuation of occupation, the architects of policies that have failed for decades.
