The Queen said it all! "The number one step now is to try to get an immediate ceasefire. The reason why we are not reaching that is that clearly, the Prime Minister of Israel has been buying time. Every time the two sides are close to an agreement, he throws in a new set of conditions or last-minute obstacles. We need to stop the fighting immediately, and that will de-escalate the Lebanon front and every other front. And then, the world community really needs to address the cause of this issue. Past peace talks have failed because we used the same equation. There were never any consequences placed to de-incentivize the occupation. Israel just felt emboldened to built more settlements, to grab more lands. There were never any efforts to uphold the international law. The starting point should be upholding the international law without exception. There can be negotiations and compromises as is the case in any peace deal. But, the departure point, the floor that needs to be set should be the international law. SECOND, human rights are universal. They don't need to be negotiated or earned. All Palestinians and Israelis have the right to peace, security, and self-determination, regardless of which side is more powerful. THIRD, security is not a zero-sum game. For the longest time Israel has been trying to safeguard their own security by denying Palestinians the same. Neither side's insecurity serves the other. It just reinforces the cycle of retaliation and repression. The only way out of that is for both sides to have peace. FOURTH, there can never be justice without accountability. When a nation does something wrong it needs to be faced with repercussions, not exceptions. FIFTH, we cannot be held hostage by the voices on the extremes. There are voices that are applauding starvation and displacement, that are encouraging collective punishment, that defend the indefensible, that justify the unjustifiable. We cannot be led by those forces. If we can agree on those five principles as the starting point, then we can reach a situation where we can find a just peace in our region. More war, more weapons are not the answer. The international community has a decision to make. Either we prove that the law stands above politics and power, or they have to admit that in the so-called rule-based world order, the rules only apply to the weak."

listen carefully
Bill Clinton On the Palestinians: “And the only time Yasser Arafat didn't tell me the truth was when he promised me he was gonna accept the peace deal that we had worked out, which would have given the Palestinians a state on 96% of the West Bank and 4% of Israel, and they got to choose where the 4% of Israel was. So they would have the effect of the same land of all the West Bank. They would have a capital in East Jerusalem. I can hardly talk about this…. And they would have equal access all day every day to the security towers that Israel maintained all through the West Bank up to the Golan Heights. All this was offered, including, I will say it again, a capital in East Jerusalem and 2 of the 4 quadrants of the old city of Jerusalem, confirmed by the Israeli prime minister, Ehud Barak, and his cabinet. And they said no. And I think part of it is that Hamas did not care about a homeland for the Palestinians. They wanted to kill Israelis and make Israel uninhabitable. Well, I got news for them, they were there first before there was their faith existed. They were there. In the time of King David, in the southern most tribes, Hadjardia and Samaria.”

For anyone still unsure about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, I hope the following helps clarify. Coming from someone with some insight into past negotiations, here’s what you should know.

THERE IS NO TWO STATE SOLUTION WHEN BARBARIAN JIHADISTS DEMAND COMPLETE DESTRUCTION of their "Little SATIN ISRAEL" and their "BIG SATIN AMERICA". WITH EVIL MEDIA PROPAGANDISTS and FAILED LEADERS LIKE THE APPEASERS HARRIS/BIDEN, MACRON and GUTERRES (CORRUPTED U.N.) MAKING THEIR WORK EVEN TOUGHER, ISRAEL and It's IDF HUMANELY DEFEND NOT ONLY ISRAEL, BUT ALSO ALL HUMANITY. https://lnkd.in/ggtPCEba SHOULD WE SIT and WAIT FOR NUCLEAR WEAPONS DELIVERED BY the "ISLAMIC REPUBLIC" LUNATICS? THE FREE WORLD MUST FULLY SUPPORT ISRAEL! THE U.S. SHOULD ELECT TRUMP FOR HIS PROVEN COMPETENCE AND HIS FULL SUPPORT OF ISRAEL. The current U.S. APPEASER REGIME TAKES ADVICE FROM ENEMIES LIKE EXTREMIST LEGISLATORS AND LOBBYISTS FOR THE AYATOLLAH, SO FAR BLOCKING ISRAEL FROM OUTRIGHT WINNING THE CURRENT WAR, WHICH WAS ONCE AGAIN STARTED WITH BARBARIAN ATTACKS ON ISRAELI and OTHER CIVILIANS. CHOOSE GOOD NOT EVIL.

Important to know:
Professor of Project Management and Strategy. [My views are personal and don’t represent any organization]
🚨 Nov 2, 2024 marks the 107th anniversary of the ‘Balfour Declaration’. ❝ We (The British) are the AUTHORS of the tragedy in PALESTINE.❞ (George Galloway, Former British MP.) ❝ The Balfour Declaration is one of the worst types of colonial injustice practiced by the British Mandate against Palestinians by force, giving the Palestinian lands to Jews and establishing a colonial state called ‘apartheid israel’. The British government played a premeditated role in the killing and displacement of the Palestinian people by facilitating the establishment of the zionist colonial state of "apartheid israel" on the land of Palestine. ❞ Palestine is still waiting for justice after 105 years. The Balfour Declaration original letter (see comments section for copy) from United Kingdom's Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour to Rothschild was issued on November 2, 1917. ………………………………………………………………………………………..

POLITCAL MONARCHY:-> A monarchy is a political system where a monarch is the head of state and has supreme authority. Monarchies can be categorized into different types, including: Absolute monarchy The monarch has complete control over the country and is not subject to approval from anyone. The monarch can make decisions such as going to war, setting the budget, and implementing new policies. Constitutional monarchy The monarch's power is limited by a constitution and shared with a government, such as a parliament. The legislature usually holds the most political power. In some constitutional monarchies, like Japan or Norway, the monarch is more of a symbolic head of state. Elective monarchy The monarch is elected to the position, rather than inheriting it. This was common in the Holy Roman Empire, and some countries that still have monarchies that are elected include Malaysia, Samoa, Cambodia, United Arab Emirates, Andorra, and Vatican City.
