Reflecting on his presidency, Obama posed the question, “Well, was there something else I could have done?”

Former President Barack Obama cautioned against ignoring the complexities of the Israel-Hamas war, warning that “all of us are complicit.”

“If you want to solve the problem, then you have to take in the whole truth. And you then have to admit nobody’s hands are clean, that all of us are complicit to some degree,” he said in an excerpted interview with Pod Save America released Saturday.

          So you’re for a 1 state solution with equal rights and a government ran by the majority like south Africa?

            Sure, or a 10 state solution. Whatever, the number of states doesn’t matter.

            ran by the majority like south Africa

            I oppose absolute democracy. I would support a representative state with strong constitutional protections.
