Not only is a Palestinian state along the lines outlined by President Joe Biden a reward for terror, murder, and the new Nazism – it is a real threat to the personal security of each and every one of us.
The attack this past Friday is just small change compared to what we'll get with the Palestinian state under a deal of "land for terror, land for the dream of strangulation". Even the division of Jerusalem is on Biden's menu.

A Palestinian state where 80% of its population supports Hamas and the massacre of Jews will quickly create a tangible and frequent rocket threat on Kfar Saba, Netanya, Lod, and Tel Aviv. It will do to all of us what Hezbollah is currently doing to the residents of the north. Where will we flee then – to the north, to the south, to the sea?
A Palestinian state will immediately threaten most of Israel's civilian and military airports and seaports, as well as key command and control centers and critical infrastructure systems like water and electricity.
Biden's plan will create a real threat of infiltration by a terror army and acts of massacring Jews vis-a-vis the narrow waistline of the state within its new borders – the "Auschwitz borders", as defined by the late Abba Eban – which will narrow to just 15 and 20 km (9 to 12 miles).
The Nukhbah Unit terrorists who invaded Israel on Oct. 7, for those who may have forgotten, penetrated 30 km deep into Israel, reaching as far as Ofakim. Today, the "settlements" that the Biden administration has marked as the "enemy" are not only a magnificent Zionist enterprise in the heart of the Jewish homeland – they also function in practice as a security buffer for the Tel Aviv metropolitan area. Their very existence, with the military presence that accompanies them, protects us and absorbs and thwarts many massacres and attacks deep inside Israel.
A Palestinian state would indeed also be a reward for the Palestinian-Nazis of Hamas, and an official message from the US to all people and the world that all that is required to obtain statehood is the murder of 1,200 civilians – the slitting of many of their throats and the beheading of many of them, the rape of their women and the kidnapping of hundreds of hostages. Such a state would be a prize for the murderers and a shot of energy for Hamas, and it would turn the October 7 war into the Palestinians' "War of Independence" – and turn the mass murderer Yahya Sinwar into the Salah al-Din of our time.
Abbas Zaki, a senior Fatah official who praised Hamas for the massacre, previously predicted that with the implementation of the two-state solution – Israel would collapse. "For the Jews", Zaki identified, "the West Bank is a historic dream. If the Jews leave those places, the Zionist idea will begin to collapse. It will recede on its own. Then we will move forward."
Zaki, who has already made it clear that the ultimate goal of the Palestinians remains the destruction of Israel, is not an exception or an outlier. Many of his comrades share the same view. He is a faithful ambassador of a broad public that sees a Palestinian state only as the beginning – the beginning of our end.
Is Biden aware of the significance of his actions? Is this the historical imprint he seeks to leave behind? Isn't there anyone in the US, even in the Democratic Party, who will point out his colossal mistake to him?
Anyone who has rejected the notion that Israel should rebuild the Gush Katif settlements in Gaza on the grounds that it is not one of the war's objectives, must all the more reject the Biden administration's plan for Israeli concessions.
Our soldiers who fought and fell in Gaza did not go into battle in order to re-establish Gush Katif, and certainly not so that a Palestinian state to be established in Gaza and the West Bank, or to give consent for the establishment of such a state in the future.
