Do you recognise Israel's right to exist?

Based on basic human and democratic principles, I cannot accept a supremacist, illegally occupying force that expands at the expense of a nation that wants nothing more than the basic recognition of its heritage, culture, identity - and existence - as a viable, independent state.
No, I cannot accept Israel’s right to exist as a supremacist state.
But I do recognise that Israel is a supremacist state that has become no more than a colonising pariah that wishes to eradicate any trace of a nation once called Palestine.

A Road Map to Zion
While Washington and Israel speak of establishing a "road map" to peace with a people they cannot afford to grant statehood to, the Zionist train continues to carve out an ever-expanding map of Israel at the expense of historic Palestine. This paradoxical set of actions ensures a road of continuous conflict that provides Israel an excuse to punish the Palestinians into total submission – and out of Palestine - forever.

Zionist Mail 2
"If I were a Palestinian of the right age, I'd eventually join one of the terrorist organizations."
(Ehud Barak, current Israeli Defense Minister)

60 year ethnic cleansing campaign +
41 year-old illegally occupying force +
41 year-old illegally occupied people +
World’s largest concentration camp
=
Hamas
Hezbollah
Resistance

". . . Let us not today fling accusation at the murderers. What cause have we to complain about their fierce hatred to us? For eight years now, they sit in their refugee camps in Gaza, and before their eyes we turn into our homestead the land and villages in which they and their forefathers have lived.
We should demand his blood not from the [Palestinian] Arabs of Gaza but from ourselves. . . . Let us make our reckoning today. We are a generation of settlers, and without the steel helmet and gun barrel, we shall not be able to plant a tree or build a house. . . . Let us not be afraid to see the hatred that accompanies and consumes the lives of hundreds of thousands of [Palestinian] Arabs who sit all around us and wait for the moment when their hands will be able to reach our blood."
(Moshe Dayan, a former Israeli Defense Minister, 1956)
