    Just in time for it to be destroyed it seems.

    Is this the Tory equivalent of thoughts and prayers?

          The West Bank exists. Currently, there is a Palestinian executive under full control in the so-called A zones there. That could be considered as part of a internationally recognised Palestinian state, although very small in size.

          Under Oslo, the B and C zones are also belonging to the Palestinians, but these are illegally contested by Israeli settlements and the fact that they are controlled by the Israeli military.

      Yes. But politics.

      I don’t know whether this is real or Cameron going off half-cocked again. I can’t see this government (or the next) doing any such thing (sad to say). Although it is pretty obvious that Cameron’s plan does not include allowing the Palestinians to elect their own government. Installing some technocratic version of the PA without any real independent statehood is not going to cut it.

      Pretty sure this is just words. To what purpose is unclear.
