Theres all sorts of unilateral moves and sorts of directions. Wait and see. And theyre not necessarily in the direction that people think, he said, refusing to elaborate.

Netanyahu first raised the notion of unilateral steps last week, when asked about his plans to prevent Israel from becoming a binational state should a two-state agreement with the Palestinians continue to prove elusive. Unilateralism I supposed thats possible too, but it would have to meet Israeli security criteria and that would also require broader international understanding than exists, he said at an event in Washington. Later, his aides clarified that he was referring to unilateral steps to improve Israels position on the ground not, as initially reported, possible unilateral withdrawals in the West Bank.

First comes the annexation, then the apartheid, then the global sanctions and boycotts, then the one-state solution.
Netanyahu has done more to destroy the state of Israel than Nasser and Arafat multiplied by 10,000.
Very glad the US has decided to stop trying to save Israel from itself. We are not their keeper.

If the Palestinians keep rejecting that, then what should Israel do aside from unilateral moves that would severely threaten the security of its citizens?
