frequent CNN contributor Marc Lamont Hill went full-on terrorist when he advocated for a “free Palestine, from the river to the sea.” And while Hill did not actively call for the dissolution of Israel, in using a phrase so well established by the worst of terrorist groups, one need not read too far into this particular dog whistle to understand what he was getting at.

I for one have never heard that phrase before. Was Lamont aware of its origins? A few celebrities were apparently tricked into using anti-Jewish (or is it only anti-Israel) terminology which they were unaware was just that. Might this be a similar case with Lamont?

Hell, it's even possible an Israeli apologist somehow convinced him to use that phrase without him realizing it's significance specifically to have him crucified and removed from CNN's staff. We don't know, but we do know that the Israeli government engages is such media tricks.

Palestinian treatment at the hands of Israel is a legit subject of criticism, but certainly that is the real crime he committed.

Palestinians have building tunnels under the Israeli border and launching rockets at Israel for decades yet still have not built a school, water treatment plant, sewage treatment plant, or any other infrastructure to improve their lives. Palestinians have sent their children as suicide bombers to kill Israelis. Palestinians storm the Israeli border pushing children in front of them, and they hide behind women and children when Israelis come hunting for the rockets. Palestinians, and especially Hamas, are the true war criminals.

One cannot be serious about peace when you openly advocate for the eradication of Israel who is the number one ally of the USA in this region.

Israelis have blockaded their access to international trade, restricted imports of building materials, chopped down their orchards and vineyards, constructed illegal settlements, jailed them for political crimes and allow their own to go free with little or no punishment for crimes including murder.

This is not a black and white issue.

You believe your sources and I'll believe mine. I'll put you down in the Anti- Israel column.

That's fine with me. Just don't say I hate Jews because I don't. My current take though is that the Israeli government does meddle with US media and politics to promote as much of a pro-Israel bias among both the American public and the Congress as possible.

Swallowed up by the waters that once in the Bible parted for them?

Bibi will part the Mediterranean so that they can go back to Europe.

It has always been the way of victor and vanquished, and it cannot and will not change: the strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must.

Palestinians and Israelis despise one another. They have fought four wars and an intifada, and the Israelis have won all five. Therefore, the Palestinians have lost the land of Israel. They will never get it back, not ever. Their choice is to live lives of misery in refugee camps FOREVER, getting smacked down and killed again and again and again, whenever they rise up to fight, like so many Indians in and endless, hopeless series of wars against the cowboys, OR they do what the defeated have done everywhere in the world, from the English and Irish and Confederates to the Germans and Japanese: submit to their conqueror, accept the loss, and get on with peace.

To fight for one's homeland is honorable. To destroy the future of one's own people fighting on forever against an invincible foe is stupid. Even the Apache eventually went onto the Reservation, learned English and joined the mainstream of American society. Even the Confederates submitted and regained their votes and seats in Congress.

Part of the art of survival in the world is knowing when you are well and truly beaten, and submitting with grace so that you can live on under new management. That has been the fate of everybody's ancestors, no matter where you are from. There are no undefeated peoples anywhere.

Had the Germans or Japanese behaved like the Palestinians, they might have been wiped out. The Indians certainly would have been.

At this point, the Palestinians bring greater misery upon themselves by maintaining the fight. If pride demands they be defeated a sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth time before they finally submit, or they have to be completely expelled from Israel and a wall built around the place - however it happens, at the end of the day the Israelis will rule Israel, and the Palestinians will never return.

The sooner there is general acceptance of that reality, the sooner that people can stop dying over there. We're never giving Manhattan back to the Powhatans. The Israelis are never giving Tel Aviv back to the Palestinians. Wrong? Right? Might makes right. Always has.

they look back to great victories not defeats

They have to look way back to find a great victory. Their enslavement of the poor Spaniards was about the last time they subjugated and made misery out of innocent lives.

If that's their goal: to keep trying until they win, there won't be many Palestinians left.

Separating Palestine into mulitland groups is crazy. Why not give Palestine a large contiguous state walled off from Israel. As it sets right now there can never be peace.

I do not know much about this subject but from what I see there will be a winner and a loser.

Israel should line up tanks and bulldozers and push the muzscum out of Israel. That is the solution.

Gaza is the great impediment to a solution to the problem

Do you really believe there is a solution?

Doesn't the antichrist have a "solution"?

This makes sense, but what makes more sense is to remove them entirely. There is plenty of room in the Arabian desert and the Saudi have enough money to make it viable

Antarctica has some free space. Maybe they could move there.

No they would eat the penguins and make the place untidy
