Earth to Gohmert, Earth to Gohmert:

You have been misled by your hero/savior/malcontent Benjamin Netanyahu. He’s no longer saying he’ll never allow a 2-state solution. Rather, he’s still open to a 2-state solution:

Mr. Netanyahu said in an interview on MSNBC that he still wanted “a sustainable, peaceful two-state solution” to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and that he had not intended to reverse the position he took endorsing that in a 2009 speech at Bar-Ilan University. But he said the Palestinian leadership’s refusal to recognize Israel as a Jewish state, and its pact with the militant Islamist Hamas movement, made that impossible right now.

IOW, it’s essentially the same exact position he had before claiming he would never accept a 2-state solution just hours before the election. Gohmert bought into electioneering BS from Netanyahu, like so many other GOPers who are clueless about Israeli politics, Netanyahu, or the Middle East generally.
