I propose a no-state solution: Depopulate the area, then seed it with Caesium-135. Area becomes unlivable, and thereby peaceful.
Im sick of hearing this “two state solutions” like iraeli are incapable of sharing their living space with palestinians. Everybody should chill and start to create bonds. This bs “centuries old enmity” was fabricated and fed through the decades.
It sounds like anarchy, which is great if you don’t want to genocide your neighbors.
Anarchy doesn’t prevent genocide in the same way that anarchy doesn’t prevent murder. It’s just presented as a one word solution without solving anything.
Netanyahu has made a two state solution impossible. There are 500,000 Israeli settlers in the West Bank who would violently oppose being removed.
Well, Hamas specifically has rejected a 2 state solution twice in recent history. Their official stance is to not negotiate for it and instead kill all jews and end the state of Israel. There’s no chance at peace til Hamas is gone, rightwing Israeli government is gone, and Iran’s nutjob religious class no longer control the state and export its cancer around the world.
But the Palestinian Authority hasn’t. It has, specifically, called for it.
Is this war against Hamas or Palestinians?
That’s the thing though, if Hamas have an approval rate above 50% isn’t it getting awfully close to a disorganized government and it’s people that’s engaging in a full scale war? It’s hard to say the war is against a terrorist group when the group is backed by a strong majority of the population that supports their actions.
100%. The Palestine territories are more like a handful of islands at this point, not a contiguous space.
Just look at this map, and look at how integrated the populations are.
A two-state solution is not viable, not anymore, they have to figure out how to live in peace together. And that means integrating into one country, no more apartheid, equal rights, freedom of religion, the end of the ethno state, the end of the theocratic state.
Upon some reflection, I suspect when politicans are talking about two State solutions today, they don’t mean independent countries, they mean Bantustans … Which isn’t going to solve anything, nobody’s going to be happy with this
This issue will fuck him next November.
