Chutzpa

In a world that is constantly debating the merits and weaknesses of the "two state solution" to the problems of the Middle East, is it not strange that it seems to be forgotten that this solution was once on the table before, and those most in favour of this solution today violently rejected back then (1948)? Rabbi Hecht, in his latest article in the Jewish Tribune (Toronto) has a word to describe this: chutzpa.

There will be no two state solution. All Netanyahu has to do to torpedo any deal is say "We'll give you 101% of what you want, we'll even divide Jerusalem, just make a public statement that Israel is a Jewish state and that Jews belong here too" and the deal will be rejected.
