Does Keir Starmer understand that from 1948 to 1967, Palestinians had exactly the state they’re now demanding, under Egyptian and Jordanian rule, and they didn’t build a nation.

Instead, they joined Arab armies in a war of extermination against Israel, and that's how they end up losing the land.

Does he know that in 2005, Israel gave the Palestinians full control of Gaza? Not as part of a peace deal, but unilaterally, withdrawing every soldier and citizen.

That was their chance to build a model state, to show the world they could govern peacefully and responsibly.

Had they turned Gaza into a peaceful, prospeous city, they could have leveraged it to demand the West Bank and East Jerusalem.

Instead, they turned it into a hub for terrorism.

In 2000, Israel withdrew from southern Lebanon. Hezbollah tookover.

In 2005, Israel withdrew from Gaza. Hamas took over.

Now, Starmer demands Israel hand over the West Bank. What exactly does he think will rise there?

October 7 happened because Israel did what Starmer wants Israel to do again.
