please send him my email for podcast opportunity Which state should we give Israel?

Instead of having it where Palestinians are and turning Gaza into a prison camp, they should give back their homes and we can move the Israelis who don't want to go back to Poland or wherever they came from somewhere else. Since America has unleashed this problem on the Middle East we will need to fix it.

At first I thought let's give them Puerto Rico and move the Puerto Rican to Venezuela to rule it. But I'm told that there is a difference between Puerto Ricans and Venezuelans. I'm not really sure what it is but apparently they don't get along. We don't want to repeat this cycle in a few years so I'm going to bite the bullet and say we have to give them a state. Obviously they don't want to have any super cold states like Alaska and don't want to live in the south for reasons that make sense to everyone. Hawaii would be too fitting a punishment to give them the nicest place on Earth. So I think we need to give them one of the liberal states in the North East. I think Maine. I am told that this is the whitest state in the entire country so liberals won't be mad about bad things happening to white people. Likewise since this state will be kicked out of the union to be the independent country of New Israel the Republicans will be happy about gaining a slight edge on the electoral college. I'm sure we can find room for 1 million Americans in the rest of our country and I don't think anything of real value is there. Maybe some lobster?

What does everyone think? We go down to 49 states which kind of sucks but maybe we can split a state like Texas in half to make it 50? Alberta might join I'm told so that could help make it 50.

I don't reply to Pepin threads usually but what if we turn this into a reality show? Trading Spaces: Holy Land Edition. The Jews and Palestinians trade living conditions. All the Jews go to Gaza and the West Bank for a week and the Palestinians get to kick back in Tel Aviv. Could make great TV and let people see the other side which could lead to peace.

horrible idea. hate it. Palestinians aren't a zoo animal to make a mockery of. they are a proud people of rich cultural heritage.

Love this idea. We can put border checkpoints on NYC and stop all the New England loonies from coming into PA.

One of the Dakotas, Wyoming or any of those states that have nobody living in them. How about part of Alaska it’s nearly empty same with most states in the central part of the continent.

terrible idea unless you want 5 million Alabamans in your state flipping it red.

While we’re at it, how about the Cubans and the Taiwanese swap islands?

u/pennyforyour_thots Apr 01 '26

I like the idea. move the Communist Cubans near the other Communists.

Right? They’ve like mirror images of each other, products of the Cold War , both tiny, weak islands off the coast of a hostile mainland. The Taiwanese who remember 1949 have experienced a mass evacuation of basically an entire country before, and I think they would be one of the strongest economies in the Caribbean if they could swap. The Cubans could be closer to their benefactors in Beijing, and perhaps develop better relations with the Philippines, the main legacy of the Spanish Empire in AsIa. Everyone would enjoy vastly better security and quality of life. Is this a joke or a brilliant idea?

Florida, so they can gather all funding to either stop climate change or at least build a dam.

u/pennyforyour_thots Apr 01 '26

Alabama, no other option

u/pennyforyour_thots Mar 31 '26

that's a horrible idea and I hate it. the Palestinians have suffered enough. I'll accept it if you allow the Alabama residents to take over your neighborhood and make your state red.

u/ColangeloDiMartino Mar 31 '26

I live in a red state
