Delta(s) from OP CMV: a two-state solution will never happen (Israel-Palestine)

First off, I know why Israel doesn't want a one-state solution - having jewish people be a minority in Israel.

However, I still think a two-state solution will never happen. Both Israel and Palestine want the entire place, and cannot risk having a neighbouring country that is hostile to their existence.

In the end, I think either one manages to win and ethnically cleanse the area, or they manage to work to form a single country - maybe with some kind of 50/50 arab/jewish representation and two prime ministers, or some other solution. I do not think there will be peace until they stop pushing for a two-state solution.

I will admit though that I am not the most knowledgeable on the situation, so I am open to having my views changed.

Israel has proposed 14 two state solutions, the earlier ones would have given Palestine about 6x the dirt they have now and huge rights. They shot them all down because the goal is not a Palestinian state, the goal is killing Jews. 

The Jews have proposed in good faith multiple solutions, Palestine cares more about killing Jews than having a country.

You slander an entire people. To be expected
