Palestine never will be free. So it doesn't matter.

Explain yourself OP.
Erm, no...

More likely to be a puppet state of Saudi Arabia.

Hamas are closely linked to IS and Muslim Brotherhood so would most probably kill Hezbollah and the Shias

I do geopolitical forecasting and geopolitical strategy. So I look at geographic, demographic and economic trends. I can judge what is likely to happen based upon constraint and what is impossible. Israel if it wants to survive can't allow Palestine to exist, however it can't just invade take it over and kick all the Muslims out. Israel has to absorb Palestine into the Jewish state.

But you keep stealing more and more of their land as it is, how can you expect them to build a state out of the crumbs you leave them?

Lol poor forecast really, it would be evident that if the notable Muslim minority population of Israel increased (which is likely since lower income families tend to have more children, both culturally and for economic reasons), then they would have far more influence in politics, which would transform the nature of israel itself.

This has happened in many places, it is very text book, so you cannot possibly judge with any informed knowledge that Palestine will NEVER be free. It is a bit naive.

Hows about we solve the problem by letting Britain recolonize the whole region.

I haven't stolen anybody's land and I neither live, nor own property in Israel


Not every Israel supports the settlement policy and it's deeply unfair to address Jewish people or even Israelis as if they are responsible for current Israeli policy.

Iran have cut off all aid to Hamas and "two weeks ago, Khalid Mashaal, the head of the Hamas political bureau, was summoned to Riyadh" (source).

What is strange is seeing Hamas form an alliance with Saudi Arabia when Saudi Arabia are forming an alliance (of sorts...) with Israel.

What about immigration and Muslims in Israel aren't poor, they are much the same as the Jews. There is no chance of the Muslim population keeping pace with the Jewish population as the Israel state is making it hard for Muslims to come into Israel. The birth rate is less important than the immigration for Israel. Also Israel keeps killing and making it economic very hard for Gaza and West bank to maintain its population. Basically Palestine has constraints Israel doesn't have.
