I’m going to say this once, and once only: There can’t be a two state solution because the “other” state, the Palestinian State, would be Hamas hellhole whose only purpose for existing would be to murder Jews, and anyone else in the Christian or Islamic world that disagrees with them.

Now, you may well ask, how can I be so sure? Well, here’s the proof, thank you Abu Ali Express: Today, the Palestinian Center for Political Studies and Surveys published a comprehensive survey it conducted at the end of May on a variety of burning questions related to the current war.

The survey included about 1,570 participants, half of them from the West Bank and half from Gaza. The survey shows an upward trend in the Palestinian public’s support for Hamas and its actions, and confidence that Hamas will win the war and remain in control of Gaza even after it.

From the survey:

• 73% of the respondents answered: Hamas made the right decision when it went to war on October 7 – this is the highest figure for this question since the beginning of the war.
• 96% of the Palestinians who did not watch the October 7 videos do not believe that Hamas committed atrocities against Israeli civilians.
• 54% of the Palestinians who saw the videos from October 7 do not believe that Hamas committed atrocities against Israeli civilians.
• 79% of respondents believe that Hamas will win the war – the highest rate since the beginning of the war.
• 61% of the respondents in the survey prefer that Hamas continue to rule the Gaza Strip after the war (71% of the residents of the West Bank and 46% of the residents of the Gaza Strip prefer this to be the case).
• In the event of an election for the PA presidency between Abu Mazen and Ismail Haniyeh, Abu Mazen will win 5% of the votes and Ismail Haniya 46% of the votes. 46% have announced that they will not vote in the elections.
• The rate of support for Hamas and Fatah in general elections:
• 17% will support Fatah
• 41% will support Hamas
• Only 32% of the survey respondents support the two-state solution for two peoples.
• 52% support the armed struggle as a way to end the occupation and establish an independent Palestinian state.

So please, just put away this liberal-sounding but meaningless idea of two states for two peoples. Palestinians have a long, long way to go until they can call themselves a people. Right now, they are members of a death cult, Nazi wannabees, ignorant, violent, and misogynistic jihadi fanatics of the worst version of Islam, and they pose an existential threat to all our lives.

No one in their right mind would give them a state of their own where they can buy as many weapons as they want, build as many terror tunnels as they want, put grenades in the incubators of prenatal care units in their hospitals, and train their four year-olds to murder, stab and decapitate. Oh, how cute. Not.

The war with Lebanon is no longer a slow burn. Hundreds of rocket attacks have been happening all over the north, with wildfires breaking out everywhere and two wounded in a Hezbollah anti-tank missile attack in Margaliot. The Israeli cabinet will convene this evening to discuss the serious escalation in the north.

We are not the only ones who want to get rid of this miserable bunch of terrorists. Camille Chamoun, a Maronite Christian (and grandson of the Lebanese president in the 1950s) who heads the Free Nationalist Party threatened Hezbollah today: “At dawn, we will take 20,000 armed men to the streets, not including the soldiers of the Lebanese army. They will be Sunnis, Druze and Christians.”

Many in Lebanon hate Hezbollah who hijacked their Christian country and has made their lives hell. They would welcome an all-out war against Hezbollah by Israel, and seem to be preparing to join in if we can give them hope that defeating this Iranian terror proxy is possible and that Israel is prepared to take it to the bitter end.

How wonderful a vision is that: Nasrallah and his merry band of ISIS murderers removed from the neighborhood for good. If only.
