2. The Israeli right's (and a lot of the center's) long game is one state.

Greater Israel with the Palestinians squashed into isolate enclaves on poor land. Their model for the Palestinians is apartheid South Africa.

For them it has always been about a slow ethnic cleansing of desirable West Bank land. What Netanyahu said or didn't say hasn't really changed a thing. He made the mistake conservatives often make of revealing their true, despicable objectives in a campaign.

I don't think there's much trouble ahead, since anyone with any intelligence has long ago understood what Netanyahu is up to. The republicans are all in supporting him. And the Democrats are far to craven to do anything about it.
