The grandson of famed South African president Nelson Mandela has criticised the UK Labour Party's shadow secretary David Lammy for stating that his grandfather would not have supported the ongoing pro-Palestine college campus protests. Lammy, who made an appearance in Washington DC on Wednesday, shared his disagreement with the Gaza solidarity demonstrations during his speech at the Hudson Centre among US Republicans. The Labour politician stated that Mandela would have advocated for peaceful protesting instead of "violence and rioting". During the 30th anniversary of Nelson Mandela's presidential inauguration, his grandson, Nkosi Zwelivelile Mandela, emphatically disavowed Lammy's remarks about his grandfather. "Contrary to what David Lammy, the Labour MP in the UK, would like us to believe, [Nelson Mandela] acknowledged the heroes in the Civil Rights Movement in the USA and campuses all over the world who regularly protested for our freedom," Zwelivelile Mandela said in a lengthy post on Instagram.

The opinion of the Israeli government is not set in stone. If enough pressure was applied, to the point that it hurts Israel more than a Palestinian state would, then the situation could change. Possible pressure includes sanctions, limiting travel, freezing funds in international banks, withdrawal of protection etc. The problem right now is that Western nations expect Israel to magically change their minds while still funneling arms, funding and diplomatic/political aid to them in a never-ending stream. A goal without strategy is, as you say, impossible. A two-state solution is not.
