    In an op-ed published ahead of a German-Israeli Cabinet meeting Tuesday, Frank-Walter Steinmeier condemned the near-daily street attacks by Palestinians that have killed 27 Israelis as “despicable terror.”

    In the article for daily Bild, Steinmeier stressed Germany’s view that only serious negotiations aimed at a fair, two-state solution can offer hope of peace for Israel and the Palestinians.

    The meeting in Berlin, led by German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, highlights the strong bond between Israel and Germany seven decades after the Holocaust, when Nazi Germany killed 6 million Jews.

    To say that the only solution is to make a two state solution, is the same as saying to put Israel in danger. We cannot give the palestinians their own state, so that they can contraband weapons to shoot at us.

    So is the situation in Germany. Maybe they should consider giving Muslims half the country as an independent state.

    How about Germany leading the way of dividing the country with Muslims and showing Israel how a 2-state solution can be done even with terrorists at their door?
