House Democrats Urge Biden to Share Two-State Solution Strategy for Israel-Palestine Conflict
- Nearly 50 House Democrats signed a letter supporting a two-state solution between Israel and Palestine to resolve the conflict.
- The lawmakers urged President Biden to provide details on his administration's strategy to bring peace.
- Israeli PM Netanyahu has rejected calls for a Palestinian state, saying Israel needs full security control west of the Jordan river.
- The letter acknowledges that compromise isn't possible until the Oct 7 attack perpetrators are brought to justice and hostages are released.
- Rep. Himes said Netanyahu's rejection of a two-state solution is unacceptable and both peoples deserve to live safely within secure borders.
