0 commentsFlorida Governor and former contender for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination Ron DeSantis condemned the two-state solution to the Israel-Arab conflict, calling it a “stepping stone” to the destruction of the the State of Israel.
Speaking at the annual Israel American Council summit in Washington D.C. over the weekend, DeSantis accused the Democratic party of catering to radical “pro-Hamas” elements in the party’s far-left base, while turning a blind eye to the rising specter of antisemitism on college campuses.
“It is pathetic that our nation’s oldest and largest political party feels the need to cater to its very own pro-Hamas pockets. If they were in my party, I’d want them to be kicked out of our Republican Party,” DeSantis said.
“What you’re seeing on these college campuses, no question, is a lot of virulent antisemitism, a lot of hate. When you say ‘from the river to the sea’, you are chanting in favor of a second Holocaust. That’s what that means.”
“I do think some of these students are just ignorant. I don’t think they understand even what they’re talking about. You hear some of them talking about ‘end the occupation of Palestine’. And I just think they need a little history lesson: There has never been a Palestinian Arab state!”
DeSantis also criticized advocates for Palestinian statehood, warning that Israel’s enemies are pursuing a two-state solution not as an end to the Arab-Israeli conflict, but as a means to annihilate the State of Israel.
“It’s important for us in the United States to be very clear-eyed about what it means to be a strong ally of the State of Israel, and that means we should not embrace the canard of a two-state solution. That is not seeking to have peace. They are seeking that as a stepping stone to the destruction of the Jewish state and that is not acceptable!”
“You had a Partition Plan from the UN – Jewish state and Arab state,” DeSantis continued, referencing the United Nations General Assembly Resolution 181, a non-binding measure passed by the international body in November, 1947.
“The Jews accepted the state and founded Israel. The Arabs rejected the state and they went to war to try to eradicate Israel, and they lost. And they went to war again and they lost in 1967 and 1973 and throughout the intifadas, and so no! That land historically has no stronger connection than any group of people except the Jewish people. It goes about thousands of years. Read your Bible!”

Wow! Well said Governor DeSantis. I hope they will hear your advice on this one.
Thank you Governor DeSantis for telling the truth 🙏 👏 x
Please run for the POTUS IN 2028!! Israel needs you, the United States needs you and the world needs you.
So appreciate to hear educated truth.
Thank you Governor DeSantis for stating so clearly what our media should be saying. Often they regurgitate what Arab news states whether accurate or not. Hamas and Hezbollah should be accused of genocide, not Israel. Israel warns civilians to move (when did you ever hear of any army doing this)? Hezbollah and Hamas hide in schools and hospitals, behind their ‘expendable citizens’ who (supposedly) elected them ten or fifteen years ago, for a four year term. Since then, with UN money plus donations from elsewhere they built an underground network for terror, armed themselves to the teeth with Iranian and home built weapons and Israel is being bombarded with their rockets, missles and drones forcing them out of their homes. Does our media show rockets exploding in Israel? No, but they show buildings believed or known to house weapons and enemy fighters being bombed and stating so many (pathetically) were killed. Do they ever say how
many were warriors, terrirists or soldiers? No, they repeat whatever number a local told them and always include children so that Westerners will be sympathetic. As Paul Harvey (great American newscaster said, “The first casualty of war is the truth.”
