Reuters: Blinken reaffirms need for two-state solution as he lands in Israel
TEL AVIV (Reuters) -U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken urged Israel and Palestinians to calm tensions as he visited on Monday during the worst violence in years, reaffirming a long-stalled peace vision as the "only path" forward.
While focusing censure on a Palestinian gun spree outside a synagogue that has put Israel on high alert, Blinken also cautioned against any celebration or avenging of such bloodshed.
Seven people were shot dead in Friday's attack by an East Jerusalem man who was himself killed by police. Lionised by many fellow Palestinians, he had no known links to militant groups.
A day earlier, Israel carried out an unusually deep raid on Jenin refugee camp in the occupied West Bank, killing 10 residents, most of them gunmen. At least 35 Palestinians, including fighters and civilians, have died in violence surging since Jan. 1, medical officials say.

PLEASE DONT DO ANYTHING STUPID
It would've helped if Blinken could have enlisted Saudi Arabia, but Biden, Bezos and WP shat upon them.
Saudi Arabia smashing the Houthi, if Israel hits Iranian forces, would be very bad for Iranians Regime moral.
