Mr. Sidney Silverman: “The Rt. Hon. Gentleman is not suggesting, is he, that any Jew who regarded a country in Europe as nothing but the graveyard and cemetery of all his relatives, friends and hopes should be compelled to stay there if he did not want to do so?”
‘A Terrible Lot of Lies’: Winston Churchill on Palestine and Israel - The American Spectator | USA News and Politics "People always ask me: “So what’s the solution?” What do I know? Surely, however, it’s time to forget the eight two-state solutions that have never worked. What about a three-state solution: Gaza to Egypt, West Bank to Jordan (the 1967 borders)? Then they say: “But they don’t want them back!” The answer is Churchill’s idea of the only things that work in the Middle East: “force and bribery.” Whatever it costs us to bribe them is less than a war, and we back the deal with air power. Better yet (in the words of an old friend in a ’70s panel discussion on the woes of the British car industry): “Go back to 1945 and start all over again.”
