@DeanObeidallah THREAD: This is total nonsense and you are perpetuating a lie.
Under the Oslo Accords, the Palestinian Authority (PA) is responsible for healthcare of its people, including all vaccinations, for Palestinians in West Bank and Gaza.
The PA has been doing for nearly 30yrs.
@DeanObeidallah Additionally, under Oslo & the Geneva Convention (to the extent it applies here), the two sides are to cooperate in fighting epidemics.
However, the PA cut ties with Israel, and never requested help in securing vaccines:
@DeanObeidallah Nonetheless, after a request by the Palestinian Authority, which they initially denied, as to not make it seem as if they are working with Israel, they received 5,000 doses for frontline workers:
@DeanObeidallah Meanwhile in Israel proper, Palestinian citizens of Israel, and Palestinians in Israeli prisons, are all being vaccinated along with the rest of the country:
@DeanObeidallah Unfortunately, as Lebanese press is reporting, they have no plans to vaccinate their Palestinian population that has been living there for 70 years.
@IlhanMN Thread: While many of us desperately want a two state solution, your support of BDS & one-sided condemnation is an impediment to a two state, peaceful solution.
@IlhanMN He supports a 1state solution where Israel will be replaced by a Palestinian state encompassing all of what is now Israel &the Palestinian territories.
“Definitely, most definitely, we oppose a Jewish state in any part of Palestine” (he considers all of Israel Palestine)
@IlhanMN He rejects the idea of a binational state, stating that "the binational model assumes that there are two nations with equal and competing moral claims to the land, and therefore we have to accommodate both national rights." /
