When I asked BB simple questions about topics I will disccuss this week at both my favorite Jewish Deli and my favorite Arab coffeehouse and he refers me to his previous non-responsive "response" and when I send him a nicely worded PM that he ignores and simply continues to recite others thoughts.... well, I find that weak and, yes, cowardly. So, that I also did as well.
There are three schools of thought to resolving the Palestinian - Israeli conflict:
1. Single State
2. Independent State
3. Do nothing, leave it alone and keep the "issue."
I can talk about 1 or 2. When BB and others spout off about what their precious "esteemed" authors say, well that's just an effort to "keep the issue," is without original thought and yes, you and I and anyone else with a nominally open mind can see right through it.
So, I consider him a bigot, a coward and a fool (kinder substitution for idiot).
If you were wondering about where I was coming from, I hope this helps.

I don't have a lot of in-depth knowledge about the Palestinian/Israeli issue, but I would like to know a bit more about the two options. How would a single state work, is that even an option? What the best solution in your eyes? What are the real impediments to solving this thing in your opinion.
I know these are the questions everyone has wanted the answer to for like fifty years, but if S2S were calling the shots, what would happen first?
