(CNN) Fareed Zakaria - I am opposed to the Palestinian effort at the UN because I think that it is going to get them nowhere. This is not the time for romantic gestures. The push is going to go nowhere in the Security Council. It may get to the General Assembly, and there may be a symbolic vote, but the result may well be that they lose funds - financial support from Israel, the U.S. and potentially some European countries - and it will make the Israelis feel that the Palestinians have gone in a unilateral direction when the only viable strategy is a bilateral one. At the end of the day, there is only one way you're going to get a Palestinian state. And that's if the Israelis agree to it. I think the next big push the Palestinians need to figure out is how to get control of Gaza. If you have half of the Palestinian leadership that engages in terrorism and does not accept Israel's right to exist, the Israelis are simply not going to create a Palestinian state under those conditions.2011-09-23 00:00:00Full Article
