In reply to the discussion: Yes, anti-Zionism is anti-Semitism [View all]shira
(30,109 posts)301. Your point being that you didn't mention you're for RoR into Israel....
        ....within 1949 lines?  How can you be for Israel's existence within 1949 lines and also support Palestinian RoR?  That will just ensure there is no more Israel, but a Palestine within the green lines.
And no, it's not good enough to be for both the 1948 Israel and also RoR.  That's the Arafat phased plan to destroy Israel.  Being for RoR is being for one Palestinian state, from the river to the sea.
You can't say you're for 2 states when you're for RoR.
