How insane/wicked is the Israeli David Bar-Illan, director of communication and policy planning for Benjamin Netanyahu, for saying "the Palestinians can call whatever fragments of the West Bank are left to them a "Palestinian state", or they can call it "fried chicken"?

Look up the word genocide. It has nothing to do with the Israeli/Palestinian conflict.
That's just idiotic.

How much longer will this mouthbreather continue to make false and insulting claims? What motivates this person?
There is no genocide.
How about some facts?
The chairman of the Syrian Delegation at the Paris Peace Conference in February 1919 stated:
"The only Arab domination since the Conquest in 635 hardly lasted, as such, 22 years".
This declaration by an Arab politician was made before 1967, as he had not the slightest knowledge of the existence of any Palestinian people. How and when did they change their mind and decided that such people existed?
When the State of Israel was reborn in 1948, the "Palestinians" did not exist yet, the Arabs had still not discovered that "ancient" people. They were too busy with the purpose of annihilating the new Sovereign State and did not intend to create any Palestinian entity, but only to distribute the land among the already existing Arab states. They were defeated. They attempted again to destroy Israel in 1967, and were humiliated in only six days, in which they lost the lands that they had usurped in 1948. In those 19 years of Arab occupation of Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and the Gaza Strip, neither Jordan nor Egypt suggested to create a "Palestinian" state, since the still non-existing Palestinians would have never claimed their alleged right to have their own state... Paradoxically, during the British Mandate, it was not any Arab group but the Jews that were known as "Palestinians"!
What other Arabs declared after the Six-Day War:
"There are no differences between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. We are all part of one nation. It is only for political reasons that we carefully underline our Palestinian identity... yes, the existence of a separate Palestinian identity serves only tactical purposes. The founding of a Palestinian state is a new tool in the continuing battle against Israel".

Palestine and the rest of the Arab world need to apologise to Israel. Israel has proved itself more than willing to live with them. It is they that have chosen the path of murder and lying. As I (I am not Arab or Israeli) see all the conflicts throughout history from 1948 it has not been Israel that has been the start of the offensive. They have responded to incursions, bombings, suicide missions, and full scale attacks. I have seen them time after time use restraint where I would not have done so. If the Palestinian people want peace let them get rid of those that attack for no reason, except that Israel just exists. The Palestinian people have been kicked around by all of the Arabic world for centuries and they harbor no resentment toward them. There has not been a Palestinian country for centuries. No body wanted what is present day Israel until Israel took it from a desert to an oasis. Israel has as much right to exist on this world as any of us do. So I say NO they owe nothing but what they get from those that surround them. Their neighbors should learn how to get along and live and let live. Israel has not been the agressor.
That area of the world needs to learn to love their children more than they hate the Jews or even the US. Until that happens they will not stop training their children to be suicide bombers and the like.

Genocide:The systemic extermination or destruction of an entire people or national group. Not sure what the casualty figures are up to but 1500 people killed by collateral accident in legitimate war does not constitute a genocide. The misues of the word is similar to crying wolf. One day there will be genocide and people will say 'ho hum yet another one'.

The asker makes little sense when taken in the context of facts.
Genocide my foot! How dare you use such a term?
The U.N. record on Israel and the Arabs of the 175 Security Council resolutions passed before 1990, 97 were directed against Israel -- notwithstanding the fact that the Arabs refused to participate in the 15 nation United Nations Commission of Palestine which recommended partition in 1948 and sought immediately to undo its work by force of arms.
Of the 690 General Assembly resolutions voted on before 1990, 429 were directed against Israel.
The U.N. was silent while 58 Jerusalem Synagogues were destroyed by the Jordanians between 1948 and 1967.
The U.N. was silent while the Jordanians systematically desecrated the ancient Jewish cemetery on the Mount of Olives between 1948 and 1967.
The U.N. was silent while the Jordanians enforced an apartheid-like policy of preventing Jews from visiting the Temple Mount and the Western Wall between 1948 and 1967.

The Palestinians have fought against the Hebrews since 1947 and have made negotiations with Hitler then, to gather the Jews into one State where they could be controlled until Hitler could use the forces necessary to exterminate them.
The Jews were a race to reckon with, and, fought back. Thankfully Hitler was involved in Poland and the conquering of Russia and wouldn't bother with the Jews. The British reneged on the Jews to create a new State with the Jews being Israel.
The Jews have fought, brother, sister and husband, wife, ever since for their freedom and very existence. The Palestinians have tried to exterminate them ever since and have failed. They have fought at every negotiations to try and find peace and live together. Now your saying the Jews should apologies? I think Not.

It more than likely will not happen as the Jews want to control the middle east and they always claim they are defending their right to existance, this is a cover up and you know it. Israel supports terrorism too, don't think any different on that. This answer is not anti-secptism or what ever they seem to label things, I am not saying that others in the middle east are angels either. I believe that santions need to be instilled on everyone in the region including Israel, on weaponary, and monies all forms, for about 15 years or so, Israel also needs to shut down their Necular Weapons Program and disarm the ones they already have, are they any different than anyone else? They over use the holocaust excuse, this happened over 60 years ago and now they have a new generation and they need to get off of the pity pot and be productive people, and they need to outlaw dual citizenship as this hurts both or more countries than they think.

You misuse the term genocide.
As it turns out, radical Islamists would like to destroy the Jews as well as the State of Israel. They say, for example:
"There are Hadiths (Islamic traditions attributed to Mohammed) regarding our struggle against the Jews. And it is given: 'The day of resurrection will not arrive until the Muslims make war against the Jews and kill them, and until a Jew hiding behind a rock and tree, and the rock and tree will say: 'Oh Muslim, oh servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him!' This Hadith clarifies to us the characteristics of the campaign between us and the Jews. The tree and the rock do not say 'Oh, Palestinian,' 'Oh Arab,' or 'Oh resident of the Middle East.' Rather they say: 'Oh, Muslim, Servant of Allah.'" (Palestinian TV, March 30, 2001)
This, dear sir, is the area in which the term genocide applies to the Middle Eastern situation. The Muslim clerics preach killing the Jews!!!!
And so, those radicals must be stopped at all costs. They wish to Islamize the western world and will stop at nothing, including murder of innocent men, women and children.

no, and they won't either until the International community starts punnishing Israel for all of the broken resolutions, war crimes, and crime against humanity.
when will the West realize that : The interests of the Jews do NOT outweigh the needs of the people of the world!
people are so quick to jump on the bandwagon to defend Israel and that's the major problem. No one sees the homes Israel bulldozes, or the atrocities they commit against the Palestinians
Israel breaks every promise and deal they make

Actually the Palestinians should apologize for being less than forthright in their dealings with almost everyone in the world.
