The San Remo Conference of 1920 adopted a measure called the Balfour Declaration. This historic resolution cemented the Jewish people’s legal right to their God-given land. At the time, the region was colloquially known by a Roman-era name for the land itself — “Palestine.”

At that time, no Arabs or any other group called themselves “Palestinians.” They were simply Arabs who identified as Jordanian or Syrian, while living alongside Jews in the Holy Land described in the Bible, the area we now call Israel and Jordan. In fact, the term “Palestinian” did not even exist until the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) invented the term as a political ruse in the 1960s.

Israel already has a “two-state solution.”

When the United Nations was formed in 1945, it agreed that all its predecessors’ resolutions — including the Balfour Declaration — were automatically effective and valid. Not long after, the U.N. accepted the partition plan that formally established the “Jewish State” from its neighbors in the “Arab State.”

The Balfour Declaration of 1920 and the ensuing U.N. agreement is the original and ONLY valid “two-state solution” for Israel.

In the years since, Israel has been repeatedly pressured to give the Arabs more land. Following the Oslo Accords in 1993 and 1995, Israel traded more land for peace, driving Jews out of their historical Gaza homes to make way for an “Arabs Only” Gaza.

But the Arab people of Gaza rejected peace, and instead used Gaza as the staging ground for terror, including the October 7 Hamas massacre. Israeli hostages continue to be held prisoner 712 days later in the Arabs’ torture tunnels beneath Gaza.

And every single time a two-state solution has been proposed, Israel accepted, but Hamas and the Arabs have rejected it, instead declaring they wish to eradicate Jews “from the river to the sea.”

The United Nations’ latest antisemitic action is a gift to Hamas.
The United States must stand vigilantly against it.

Multiple members of Congress are pushing to divide Israel. In the past, even normally pro-Israel President Trump has appeared to lean toward a “two-state solution.”

We must make our voices loud and clear — HANDS OFF ISRAEL!
