U.S. Secretary of State: Palestinian State "Not Even a Realistic Thing Right Now"
(The Hill) Max Rego - Secretary of State Marco Rubio told CBS's "Face the Nation" on Sunday that an independent Palestinian state is "not even possible. That's not even a realistic thing right now, because who would govern that Palestinian state, Hamas?" Rubio noted that establishing a new government in Gaza will require assistance from Middle Eastern and European nations. However, with the conflict still ongoing, he said, "We are so far from that right now. That's going to take some time to build up, and it's going to require a lot of work and a lot of international support."
