Lasting peace requires accepting Israel's right to exist
- On Monday, President Donald Trump addressed the Israeli parliament, taking a rhetorical victory lap and urging a new 'golden age' for the Middle East tied to ending the war and freeing hostages.
- From its founding, Israel has insisted on a right to exist while Iran and its proxies including Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis advocate erasing the 'Zionist entity.'
- The U.N. Relief Works Agency grants Palestinians a unique 'hereditary' refugee status, and UNRWA school teachers, some linked to Hamas, indoctrinate children against Israelis.
- Lasting peace will require accepting Israel's existence as a non-negotiable fact despite the Human Rights Council's double standard and Western media framing debates around Zionism.
- Anti‑Zionist arguments are increasingly normalized, as campus protesters and social media influencers lionized Hamas despite its persecution of dissenters and affirmation of Israel's destruction.
