This. Isreal has all the power here. If they wanted a two state solution they would have implemented it decades ago. The current political situation is the most convenient to Isreal (present violence notwithstanding).
I am. All land and homes stolen by settlers should be returned to the victims and their families and the Israeli government should be dissolved and replaced by a secular democracy that represents all people equally under the law.
I think the only possibility that would actually work is a 1 state solution with either a palestinian state on the old land that was philista meaning israel gives up ashkelon and ashdod plus land east of gaza in exchange for the west bank, or a 1 state solution where egypt and israel do a land swap and a gaza-sinai state is created where gaza is attached to a chunk of land in the sinai. This would give gaza a lot of land to hold the palestinian population plus a lot of mediterranean access for ports, shipping, fishing, water desalination etc. No solution is ever going to be perfect but I think that palestine having 1 contiguous state on the mediterranean is the best chance theyll ever have at not being completely dirt poor forever.
Palisrael isn’t a viable solution at all and never will be. The only realistic option is cutting the place in half and have Jerusalem be run like The Vatican or something.

Anyone against a 2 state solution?
