When, oh when, will the Palestinians find a partner for peace? From the Jerusalem Post article “Knesset rejects ‘Two-State Solution Bill’“:

The Knesset voted down the so-called “Two-State Solution Bill” prohibiting the government from unilaterally annexing land, in a preliminary vote Wednesday.

The bill, proposed by MK Hilik Bar (Labor) would have only allowed land in the West Bank or Gaza to be annexed as part of a peace treaty leading to two states.

“You are reaching a moment of truth, in which you have to look in the mirror of history and realize that we need to separate from the Palestinians,” opposition leader Isaac Herzog (Labor) said to the coalition. “If you don’t take this opportunity now, history will judge you, because we will become an isolated, binational state.”

Herzog called for coalition MKs to “overcome narrow political interests and don’t make promises you know you can’t keep.”

“If you don’t face the historic challenge, we will replace you and do it ourselves,” he added.

Despite Herzog’s warnings, the bill was voted down with 44 opposed, including MKs from Hatnua and Yesh Atid, and 25 in favor.
