Its not theirs to give. The entire world, the International Court of Justice, the UN, and others all say that it belongs to the Palestinians. So they have nothing to give, what they must do is get out of Palestine.
Israel was widely condemned when it stole land by force in 1967. A UNSC resolution stated clearly that taking land by force was inadmissible and that the land had to be returned. They have ever since illegally occupied that land despite constant calls from the entire international community and the International Court of Justice.
And they imposed a crushing and illegal blockade that has also been widely condemned.
Palestine is a nation with clearly defined and recognized borders (pre-1967 borders). Because Israel is set on continuing expanding until they have achieved their goal of "Greater Israel" they have yet to declare their own borders, so some would question whether Israel was even a nation.

Holbrooke was behind wars that ended up killing several millions of people. He worked hard for certain American corporations, not for America.
You might want to believe he was fighting for freedom and democracy, but most people know better.

What do you mean by "those of your religion"? You do not need to be Muslim to understand the unfair accusations continually thrown at Muslims.

I guess you're not familiar with false flags. Just like the anthrax attacks after 911. The letters stated "Death to America, Death to Israel" only to frame the Arabs, we now know they came from a US government lab, not from an Arab.
mikehuntez, the section you quoted would have been more accurate if it stated:
“The Swedish Armed Forces claimed they did not know ahead of time about the plans or the circumstances surrounding the events which have taken place. If that had been the case, (Swedish security service) Säpo, which is the responsible agency in these types of cases, should have been informed immediately,” said military spokesperson Erik Lagersten in a statement."
And how do we know Sapo was not informed? Because they said so? And just because some members of the military knew about it, does not mean they all knew, or that it was an official matter. Just like 911, the vast majority of US military were completely unaware.

While many who have been mesmerized by the MSM falsely believe Hamas seeks to kill all Jews, so few are aware of their willingness to accept peace with Israel based on a return to the pre-1967 borders and the lifting of the illegal blockade. In other words, following international law.

The blockade has been condemned by Amnesty International as illegal and cruel. Your distorted version of an armed commando attack in the middle of the night in international waters does not change the fact that Israel was widely condemned when it stole land by force in 1967. A UNSC resolution stated clearly that taking land by force was inadmissible and that the land had to be returned. They have ever since illegally occupied that land despite constant calls from the entire international community and the International Court of Justice.

Illegal arms? Do you mean things like chocolate, jam, fruit juice, textiles, and plastic toys? The blockade has nothing to do with security, most people have caught on by now.

Indeed, if they do not settle this quickly, they'll have to settle for a one-state solution, where Palestinians will end up outvoting the Israelis. Finally, the Israelis will get to see real democracy.

Actually, that is exactly how I feel about the Israelis.

Hmmm, this just in: "A Swedish Armed Forces (Försvarsmakten) employee warned an acquaintance to stay clear of an area in central Stockholm on Saturday where, several hours later, two explosions went off in what is being called a terrorist attack."

You should give the Balfour declaration another look. It was about "the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people", not the other way around. Palestine already existed long before the 1917 declaration.
Interestingly, although the zionists welcomed the declaration, they completely ignored the part that stated: "it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine".
By 1967, the Israelis had already taken all the best Palestinian land, but that was not enough. In 1967, they stole more land by force, in a move that was widely condemned. A UNSC resolution stated clearly that taking land by force was inadmissible and that the land had to be returned. They have ever since illegally occupied that land despite constant calls from the entire international community. Surprisingly, Israel still expects to be considered a respectable nation.

nanfromamerica,
Israel must relinquish all the land it stole in 1967, it does not belong to them.
Israel only offered peanuts to Arafat. Arafat accepted Israel's unfair offer, but Israel never followed their end of the deal, notwithstanding the MSM spin.
Israel better solve this quick, before its too late. They risk losing it all.

Palestinians existed long before Israelis.
Anyway, very recently Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay have declared that they recognize the Palestinian state within the 1967 borders. Others will certainly follow.
Palestine exists, it is illegally occupied. The Israelis will get out, for there own sake, better sooner than later.

Muslims this, muslims that.... If I was a disgruntled Muslim, there would be so many other targets I would choose before Sweden. This case seems too fishy, sounds like another false flag.

Sweden? That certainly would not be my top any of my top picks if I were a disgruntled Muslim. Does this have anything to do with Assange's recent arrest? I suspect the whole thing is a hoax.

No, only some of their leaders, AND that's only if you believe wikireaks is legit; I don't.
They have done more than what the NPT requires them to.

There is no evidence that Iran is pursuing nuclear weapons, and they are allowing inspections and have joined the NPT. As an NPT member, not only do they have the right a nuclear energy program, other NPT members have an obligation to help Iran. It seems they bringing up these rights and obligations in the talks.
The "action" you brought up is quite insignificant. Indeed, considering their actions during the past centuries until today, if I had to choose one nation to have nuclear weapons, it would be Iran. I would trust them more than most, if not all, other nations.
