Senator Chuck Schumer's Address on Israeli-Palestinian Peace and Two-State Solution

Published | Video Starts at 32:47

Call me an optimist, but I believe that if the Israeli public is presented with a path to a two state solution that offers a chance at lasting peace and coexistence, then most mainstream Israelis will moderate their views and support it. Part of that moderation must include rejecting right wing zealots like Ministers Smotryk and Ben GVIR and the extremist Israeli settlers in the West Bank. (32:47–33:00)

CLAIM
