Hi,

This is what my friend read on a wall in Reykjavik:

"Og svo leystu bandaríkjamenn palestínudeiluna sísvona"

Could anyone tell me what it means?

Thanks,

"And the Americans solved the Palestinian problem just like that"

Or thereabouts.

And then the USA solved the palestine quarrel off hand

sísvona can mean something like just like that - carlessly - off hand
- without giving it further notice

Deilan means quarrel - issue rather than problem
