    So she accuses Israel of occupying palestine without realizing there is no palestine.

    Once again proving socialists have no brains, but that never stops their mouths.

    Israel is occupying Palestine. Their entire colony system in the West Bank is an attempt at ethnic cleansing.

    The only attempt at ethnic cleansing is the arabs trying to wipe Israel off the face of the Earth.

    No it isn’t. The walled ghettos Israel has established in Palestine as if emulating the Nazis in Warsaw is proof of that.

    Wow. A twofer, a liberal who's also a woman admitting to not being an expert on something. Now that's a first.

    The way I see it, the Palestinians had numerous chance after chance at Statehood, and the biggest thing keeping them from accepting, is the concept of the Right to Return. I don't think Israel will ever relent and in fact even the '67 borders is now an impossibility. Some have suggested that the Palestinians make Jordan their new State, and I think it's going to have to be that.

    Ironically, I'm not sure the Israeli government would be too pleased if the Palestinians gained autonomy through Jordan. That would be another possible antagonist in the region. To me, I think a two-state solution should be Israel's primary goal, even if they have to relent on the Right to Return.

    Same thing the Nazis said about the people they walled into ghettos and then stole their land.

    I'm not sure what the percentage is today, but historically about 60% of Jordanians were palestinians, though their rulers (King Hussein) are Hashemites.

    A pretty impressive young woman if you ask me. Even had an asteroid named after her.

    From your wiki leak, oops, I meant link. (But, don't you just love Wikileaks anyway?)

    "From 2003 to 2007, Ocasio-Cortez attended Yorktown High School,[13] where she won second prize in the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair with a research project on microbiology. As a result, the International Astronomical Union named a small asteroid after her: 23238 Ocasio-Cortez.[14][15] In high school, she took part in the National Hispanic Institute's Lorenzo de Zalvala (LDZ) Youth Legislative Session. She later became the LDZ Secretary of State while she attended Boston University. Ocasio-Cortez had a John F. Lopez Fellowship.[16] During college, she was an intern in the immigration office of U.S. Senator Ted Kennedy.[17] She graduated fourth in her class[16] from Boston University's College of Arts and Sciences in 2011 with a bachelor's degree in economics and international relations."

    Israel is occupying lands against international law and is enacting ethnic cleansing and genocide. It is an illegal state and a rogue state that doesnt respect the sovereignty of other nations.

    Israel located in Palestine. west bank of the river of Jordan is geographical location.

    Ocasio-Cortez Is not the only one who needs a lesson in geography and politics.

    The West Bank is an internationally recognized geographic region (even by Israel). Even the Israelis have signed agreements acknowledging it as Palestinian territory.

    Then they began sending in armed settlers to steal Palestinian land.

    It is, it is. It’s just, as any other river bank, should not be capitalized. It’s been done so PalestinIans, Arabs and other Israel haters can avoid saying Judea and Samaria :)

    Israel recognizes West Bank as an official name.

    Judea and Samaria are names used by Israel’s ethnic cleansing efforts because they are trying to claim the modern state of Israel is in any way an inheritor or the Kingdom of Israel.

    A deeply convicted socialist should not by definition be “A pretty impressive young woman” Socialism is a monstrosity, killing individuality and drive to succeed.

    Them and the French. The 19th century promise of a Palestinian and/or Jewish State, resulted in the conflict today in the Middle East. It was not for either power to make that choice, and it was foolhardy of them to do so.

    No, my friend. Judea and Samaria both located along the west bank of river Jordan. I’ve been to both, and can vouch for their existence.
