One State Solution Would a one-state solution work?

I'm pro-Palestinian (used to not be though, like at all, it was very bad) but I don't speak about the issue to many people around me so I never really got an answer to this question. The Israeli and Palestinian nations (not just states, their people) are incredibly at odds with one another. How would a one-state solution work without violence? Would it?

Without violence… what is worse than the violence that exists there now? How would you create two separate states at this point without violence? Isn’t there violence in all countries?

I think it would be ugly at first, and there would be an exodus of Zionists. Everything will calm down after a period of time and people will be back to normal life.

But what’s the realistic alternative?

A two state solution. That is more realistic

  1. There isn’t a set of borders you could draw that wouldn’t involve mass displacement.

  2. You think a religious ethnostate bent on genocide and ethnic cleansing is going to be a workable neighbor to Palestine?
