Islam's Motive In The Two-State Solution
From Atlas Shrugs:
Palestinian Ambassador to Lebanon Abbas Zaki: Two-State Solution Will Lead to the Collapse of Israel
"With the two-state solution, in my opinion, Israel will collapse, because if they get out of Jerusalem, what will become of all the talk about the Promised Land and the Chosen People? What will become of all the sacrifices they made – just to be told to leave? They consider Jerusalem to have a spiritual status. The Jews consider Judea and Samaria to be their historic dream. If the Jews leave those places, the Zionist idea will begin to collapse. It will regress of its own accord. Then we will move forward."
You know what strikes me about this statement? This man is telling us not only how Muslims think about the two-state solution, but about how Muslims can be defeated.
They believe Israel will collapse if Jerusalem is given up, as if Jerusalem were somehow the center of Judaism, and not the Torah itself.
This is magical thinking. Almost all Muslim thought is steeped in such magical thinking, from the idea that Allah somehow turned Jews into apes and pigs, to the idea that a cube-shaped meteorite called the Ka'aba has some sort of special power, to the endless obsessive-compulsive rituals they go through in preparation for prayer.
It would seem that when a Muslim tells us that Israel can be destroyed if Jerusalem is conquered, (when it clearly can not as history has shown) what they are telling us is that Islam could be destroyed if Mecca were conquered.
That's a big, big clue for us, methinks.
