The state/nationhood option has been available to the Palestian's for 65 years going back to the partition in 1947. They wasted that opportunity by choosing instead to focus their resources on wiping Israel off of the map. Of course, it is so much easier to play the victim and blame your troubles and failures on someone else than getting down to the hard work of developing and growing a state/nation.

Israel needs to be held responsible for its criminal actions against the people of Palestine and this is the first step in that direction.

step one: Israel has the right to exist...(and most important about this statement- it is not about borders, who's right or wrong, but just the right to exist)
