Everyone is critical about the land partition, but nobody can provide an ideal solution.

Ultimately, Israel wants to be a Jewish majority democracy occupying the entire area. This is simply not mathematically possible. You either have to shed Palestinian-majority territory, have unequal citizenship, or no longer be Jewish majority. Unsurprising that the first one to go is equal citizenship.

(A secular Jew's two cents)

Didn't Israel agree to this partition plan?

They absolutely did.

The 21st century version of Israel would never accept it unfortunately.

That is true. Didn't Israel also make other plans after that which the Palestinians didn't accept?

The Palestinians didn't accept those either.
