Why are we all accepting that isreal can commit a genocide and destroy all of Palestine then go back to a two state solution. I only see one state that should cease to exist and it’s the one enacting the holocaust of our generation.
New talking point for political capital because it costs to keep being foolhardy about Netanyahu’s war.
A State for Palestine.
Leader Saudi Arabia has not protected Muslim life all over the world, especially in Palestine since 17 October. over 2 million Palestine killed by terrorist zionist Israel. Shame on the Leader of Saudi Arabia
Saudi government and people will never allow Israel to be their friend because no one like war criminal.
Nvr would i have ever thought a lindsay graham statement was true
We don’t care what Israel wants anymore, They lost that right with Genocide
Forget two state,all of israel should under muslim rule that is the only way that Israelis and Palestinians are gonna find peace because when it was under muslim rule you never saw any of this and a two state is not gonna last long, history will repeat itself.
Palestinians majority are in Jordan….and majority of Jordan are Palestinians.
The real state of palestinians is Jordan. That is their ancestral land. Muslim invaders of Jerusalem Israel came from Jordan and mecca medina.
Just what kind of assurance can Sen. Graham Lindsay give to Israel’s security and peace out of the two state solution? What assurance can Sen. Graham Lindsay give to Israel that there will no more rockets fired from Palestine to Israel out of the two state solution that he and others have been pushing for? What tangible and real efforts can Sen. Graham Lindsay and other Western leaders, governments and countries put into Gaza and Palestine to ensure there will be no more rockets flying over the border into Israel? Sen. Graham Lindsay and other Western leaders must talk about these concrete realities first before talking about a two state solution. Dont just come up with empty rhetorics as a two state solution that will only indirectly gives the Arabs backed Palestine the legitimacy to cause more killings and destruction to Israel. Israel is always ready and willing to live in peace with Palestinians. But it is only the Palestinians themselves that needs to do it’s part of the deal to bring about lasting peace.
Ask Lindsay about his military and diplomatic experience. Oh, wait…
Hamas groub danai dengan israel groub haram3x
To justify their brutal, barbaric actions against the defenseless Palestinian people, Israeli spokesmen speak as if the conflict began with the October 7th attack, as if the situation before the attack was rosy and stable and everyone was enjoying freedom, justice, equality and decent living!
ignoring that they are a colonial power that practices all kinds of torment, abuse, oppression, persecution, settlement expansion, and the hideous starvation siege against the Palestinians in besieged Gaza, the West Bank, and occupied East Jerusalem for 75 years.
They brazenly ignore that their state was built on massacres and ethnic cleansing in 1948.
They brazenly ignore the legitimate rights of the Palestinians to live freely and in a state on their land.
Before and after October 7, Israeli colonial forces detained and kidnapped thousands of Palestinian civilians without charges, abused them, and tortured them in front of their families for no fault of their own. Why? Where are the European and American governments regarding Israeli transgressions and crimes?
Does the October 7 attack justify the gangs that rule Tel Aviv to impose collective punishment on the Palestinian people by cutting off electricity, water, food, fuel, and communications?
Does the October 7 attack give legitimacy to ethnic cleansing operations and the expulsion of residents to unqualified and unsafe places without water, medicine, food or heating?
According to international law, forcing civilians to move to unsafe places without water, food and medicine is genocide. Israel is practicing genocide against the Palestinian people in front of the public and in front of the screens, with all brazenness, publicly and not secretly.
The Israeli colonial forces’ treatment of civilians in Gaza is inhumane and immoral, and they deliberately kill and indiscriminately destroy the air, sea, and land to make Gaza an uninhabitable place. These are war crimes.
Why has Israel killed 91 journalists so far? To cover up her crimes
Why did Israel kill more than 133 UN workers?
Why did Israel kill dozens of doctors and medical teams?
Why did Israel bombing hospitals?
Why did Israel bombing ambulances and fire tank trucks?
Why did Israel bombing UN schools?
Why did Israel bombing bakeries, mosques, churches, roads and markets?
Why did Israel bombing water tanks?
Why does Israel withhold Palestinian money?
Why did Israel bombing solar panels on homes and hospitals?
Why have you killed more than 20,000 civilians, including 7,000 children and 4,000 women, so far?
The killing of three Israeli hostages who were mistakenly raising white flags by the Israeli army confirms that the occupation soldiers are deliberately shooting directly at Palestinian civilians. This is gang behavior based on revenge and premeditated murder. The truth is crystal clear. The criminal continues his crimes thanks to American, British, and German support, arming, and financing. Israel will remain above the law, and above accountability
No one can trust Republican and Democrat ghouls like Lindsey etc
US, UK and Israel can’t be true friends of anyone, they’re the biggest hypocrites of the world.
Just send them back to Eastern European
😂🤣😅😆😁😄 MR. Easu and Mr. Ishmael are getting together.
In other words, to normalise relation, Saudi family will have to accept no Palestinian state. Wake up you sloths, these Zionists are not here for anything but to occupy more n more land.
Isreal is going against the whole world.
For the long term peace of Palestine and the Middle East ….you need a two state solution in Palestine.
Palestine will boom if there is peace.
Tourism will boom.
Peace always lead to prosperity.
Win win.
No need to normalise relations …israiil s cruel.
Good context by the Washington correspondent. Surely the West Bank settlements and the current skirmishes there are further proof positive that no two state solution is possible. Western powers created Israel and all of these Arab states and they should demand a two state solution with much stronger pressure than we poor rubes can`t even fathom. Hamas and the like are horrible but there are reasons that they have festered for so long, not good ones but reasons nevertheless. And for the main Arab states, they seem to be content to allow this bloodbath in Palestine by not accepting refugees. It`s as if they hope enough of them survive to fight another day. War crimes? War itself is the crime. It’s awful when small innocent children die and it’s awful when young men and women are sent to fight for old bitter men’s egos! Realpolitik has always been a sham that is a poor substitute for real statesmanship. There seems to be no adults in the rooms of power around the world!!!
There are 194 more countries for Saudi Arabia to do trade, commerece, technology and military cooperation and all types of bilateral and multilateral exchanges. I dont understand why Saudi has to go to normalise relations with Israel ?
Because Saudi Arabia knows something that the rest of the world doesn’t
People like Graham and their likes are morally bankrupt and cowardly. Their unconditional support for the Zionist entity is disgusting
Every Muslim has right to defend himself and every non- Muslim has right to defend himself from each other.
These words from a war monger….things must be really bad.
Integrity refers to a steadfast adherence to a strict moral or ethical code. Dignity refers to the state of being worthy of esteem or respect. A person with integrity will be honest and follow a strict moral code. A person with dignity will behave in a respectful manner and will treat people with dignity.
After this genocide will anyone accept normalise with Israel? NO NO
This demon said level the place u know how many innocent people died smh
Lindsey Graham is still a 💩.
❤🇵🇸❤🇵🇸❤🇵🇸❤
After Lindey Graham pro isreal statement at the beginning of Isreal invasion into Gaza he now changes his tune. I guess people power, all the pro Palestinian protests does have an effect on these spineless politicians after all. Remember Boycott isreal and any company news media and politician who sided with this ongoing genocide
In the first place does any organisation have a right of taking some ones land and give it another, not even the UN
No Fkking normalization
No, that proposal is dead and buried.
It’s one state… called Palestine, with equal rights for all citizens.
1. The Throne of England established Saudi Arabia in the Arabian Peninsula during the 1930s.
2. The Throne of England established the state of “Israel” in Palestine during the 1940s.
3. Colonization is a War Crime.
Anyone having a relation with Zionist Jewishs will be cursed!
America & Israel is a threat to the world
Sodomite Graham is a viper and a cold blood murderer.
Saudi Arabia is a muslim Nation ( it contains lot of satan’s tricks and deceptions and having no religious freedom at all ; So , satan ! Depart From That Land Also IN THE NAME OF OUR ONE LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST THE BKESSED AND ONLY SOVEREIGN WHO DIED FOR OUR SINS AND RESURRECTED ON THE THIRD DAY….. )
A.G / South India / South Kerala
Finally, the war monger linsay Graham,say something that makes sense,rs,😂😂
Muslim power
Finally Lazy Graham, a servant of neocons and the war machine became a man and say something wiser than his little dumb brain.
Sorry now too little too late
Israel and Saudi were on the final lap to normalize relations when October 7th happened.
Hamas did it as it wanted to sound important and as if it forced the normalization.
You may able to normalise some so called Arab leaders but Muslim world
HOW MUCH MONEY DOES AL CHEESERA GIVE HAMAS
Ask bibi?
Ask Qatar oh right they for schools to educate hate…etc…you know the drill@@jhingoorpatima237
America europe create isreal for arab oil stole suppose arab oil MT finish automatically isreal people vacated Europe country
GRAHAM you can have them see how that works out….64% of Palestinians the went to sweden since 92 have criminal records now….hmmm just the facts
Oh sorry not sweden DENMARK
Shame on Saudi Arabia for doing nothing for Muslim brothers in gaza and Palestinian
What can they do? Nothing!!!
@@jhingoorpatima237 need toilet??
Mr Graham has finally come to his senses.
Expel US from the UN now.
Let’s get this straight❗️
.
Two-state solution will only work with sovereign rights!
.
NO OCCUPATION. NO APARTHEID.
NO CHECKPOINTS WHERE 🇵🇸 STRIDES.
.
Two independent sovereign states living side by side under international law with the protection of its own military.
.
NO CONTROL OVER IMPORTS, EXPORTS, FOOD AND WATER‼️
The only time I have ever agreed with that career criminal Graham
Two state or one state. Give Palestinian their rights back and let them live as equal citizens
America, UK and their allies are done. Young generations who are educated, smart, open minded and has morals stand with Palestine.
Why should israek needs saudi arabias relation
They are the perpetators or mentors of hmas isis and all other such groups
Finally they will make everything possible to convince that they are saints
Don’t believe this snake, agreeing to a two state solution has been used as stalling tactic by Israel and the United States for decades..
Republican Senator Lindsey Graham for Anti-russia Anti-china Anti-iran?
I am surprised that Lindsey Graham making some sense finally, maybe reality is hitting some of our politicians that no 2 state solution no peace.
Return Palestine to Palestinian.
Lindsey Graham is pretty spineless for the GOP US credibility is shot globally and the longer this lasts more damage on the international stage occurs. As it stands I don’t think Arab Countries are going be able to have Normal relations with Israel.
Nah. Israel just need to send trump daughter to saudia and thy will lick Israeli feet
Why hasn’t the Arab countries cut off the oil production and supplies to the western nations and Israel? Why?
Israel dreaming of greater Israel all along. Unless Israel do-away with it no solution will sustain much less two states solution.
It’s seems that American and European will sell one more lie to world as two state solution which we are listening from very beginning
How about israel gets a state in US and lindsay give his house to israel.
Only 2 State East juresalam is capital city of Palestine people yes
If Saudi not support to Hamas may be hamas will lose this war. After that tomorrow or after tomorrow Israel will catch Saudi for their wast Isreal deal. Then this Arabian problem will very difficulty. Nobody will support them.
It is a seat-sharing election
People’s elections are not taking place here.
Uncontested election in 2014.
2018 night election. People have no freedom to vote here either. It’s name nominal selection! The world is not saying anything about Bangladesh elections.
Dictatorship government appeals to the people of the world.
Jewish was a old residents of saudi arabia. Two cities of MECCA- MEDINA was biggest majority of jews.
Influential but nonetheless an utter moron…
Under the bus????
Under carpet bombing you mean?
Free illegally oppressed occupied Palestine 🇵🇸 ♥️ 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Fighting for freedom, justice, equality, land and sovereignty is not terrorism at all free Palestine 😢❤
Ceasefire! Stop Genocide! Stop Dehumanisation! War crime is a serious breach of international law committed against civilians👿
1st they kill Palestinians AND now they want a so called “own state!”
Over our dead bodies Regardless what the arab leaders say
WE AS PAKISTANI SAY NO 2STATE SOLUTION
ISRAEL USA THE TERROR STATES ARE CRIMINALS
” WE DONT NEGOTIATE WITH TERRORISTS ”
ISRAEL HAS OVER STAYED THERE WELCOME
CAME AS GUESTS
NOW THERE ARE OCCUPIERS
PAK PALESTINE AFG
I think Israel 🇮🇱 will not except with out defeat
Lindsay Hraham is Israel stooge
Republicans and Democrats are in the same boat…complicit with the genocide. The day after the killings and supplying weapon of mass destruction to Israel Lindsay make a u turn and tried hus very best not to seen as a warmongering b@#£ he is
Two state solution is dead long time ago.
Only one state solutions with equal rights to all and ending the colonial arphatheid supremacy supported by US , UK, EU
How can you make any deal with these israeli criminals?!
It is the suitable solution.
Well who whould like a terrosit state at his border any one who talks about a two state solution should ask him self that question and if the the answer is yes then he his really stupid! And thats is the problem with the Palestinians that pepole dont want to talk about and if you want to really prove me wrong then check the history of terrorism and the present terrorism that the Palestinians do on evry day basis and its not rebellion its terrorism because israel wants to live in peace as a fact and evry time the Palestinians reaspond with more terror!!!
There is only one state – Palestine.
Saudi Arabia is a disgrace to the Islamic community ready to make deals with apartheid Israel terrorist government. The Arab leadership has failed to deliver they are thinking of their economic interests and their future. Israel government and Zionist agenda is not just Palestinian but Nile’s to Euphrates. They are getting bold brave and have unwavering support of “ civilized world “
He speaks with fork tongue.
Good morning… Al-Jazeera. I would like to know about Mira and her mother. There is some discussions are proceeding.. but I can’t understand the language. So pls give me a message about what exactly going on…
What’s going on with him ?
Is he awakened ?
must knowing and aware King of Saudi Arabia and their CLAN family where come from Israel✌️
Saudi Arabia’s leaders are of Jewish descent and their thoughts are Zionist so they are servants of the Dajjal. Disgusting
The terrorist zionist European refuges nazis shoulf return their home in Europe you cant just stole someone land and claim to make peace with him.after 70yrs of brutal occupation
Stupid Lindsay Graham the Flip Flop Lier
Isreal should be sanctioned and tried in the criminal courts along with the other leaders who have been complicit in this crime
Under the current situation, we should not discuss the normalization of Saudi Israeli ties! The main concern should be shifted to the Palestinians safety
There would be no solution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict without an independent Palestinian state
Netanyahu can say whatever nonsense he wants, but at the end what Saudi Arabia wants will happen. KSA made it clear that either a two-state solution or there is no need for a fake normalization. Israel is the one who needs Saudi Arabia anyway
The man was honest and direct. Must respect him for that. Unfortunately Netanyahu has unequivocally ruled that out. So far his strategy has been very clear, he’s forging ahead, despite what happens. Will that change? Doubtful.
U PROPOGANDA MEDIYA WHAT ABOUT HUNDEREDS OF BALOCHISTAN WOMEN CHILDERNS KILLING
WHERE IS UR PROPOGANDA MEDIYA ON BALOCH WOMEN CHILDERNS KILLED BY UR ISLAMIC JUMURIYA PAK
The saudis only want to cut oil, so no Palestinians migrate to their country and cause chaos….just like Egypt, Libya, and all the other Arab countries…none of them will take any Palestine refugees….I wonder why…do your historic research there is a valid reason
