Israel should be sanctioned and decolonized like South Africa was. And I, for one, believe that that would have happened a long time ago if the Palestinians had followed the Nelson Mandela and Mahatma Gandhi playbook. Perhaps I am wrong. Like the rest of the world, I also don’t have the solution for this quagmire.
