Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he has told the United States that he opposes the establishment of a Palestinian state once the conflict in Gaza comes to an end.
In a news conference, a defiant Mr Netanyahu vowed to press on with the offensive in Gaza “until complete victory”: the destruction of Hamas and return of the remaining Israeli hostages, adding that it could take “many more months”.
With almost 25,000 Palestinians killed in Gaza, according to the Hamas-run health ministry, and 85% of the strip’s population displaced, Israel is under intense pressure to rein in its offensive and engage in meaningful talks over a sustainable end to the war.
Our system is not setup to have viable third parties. We would need to have all states implement something other than first past the post for presidential elections. Currently only Alaska and Maine do ranked choice for their presidential elections. Feel free to advocate that in your state but until that changes on a significant scale (more than for 7 electoral votes), a third party presidential candidate is not an option.
