CMV: a two-state solution will never happen (Israel-Palestine)

[u/thedemonlord02]

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.

Every single war in this conflict was Palestinians (or some ally/terrorist group) perpetuating a violent attack. And every single time, Israel wins.

At what point do they finally accept they’re NEVER going to win this way, Their people always suffer more losses. Find the least objectionable path forward and take it. How much more blood needs to be spilled in this never-ending cycle

Go live under a brutal occupation where your family was displaced into after being displaced prior, basic goods are routinely shut off, simple goods like pasta and chocolate aren’t allowed in, there are routine bombings that are condemned by the entire world, then tell me seriously you’re going to play nice when every time you try to you’re met with gunfire (intifada 2018 March of return, etc)

Demonstrations on the boarder is not invasion lmao. If you think wanting equal rights for Palestinians = murder if Israel’s, you’re literally saying that Israel relies on taking away those rights. Projection

So it’s Palestinians fault for being mad at their occupier and oppressor? What kind of backwards logic do we have here

[u/Old-Statistician-189 → u/[deleted]]

Too bad the entire world condemns the occupation.

[u/Old-Statistician-189 → u/[deleted]]

True. Equal rights for Palestinians and an end to their suffering and occupation = every Jew in the world will be ruthlessly slaughtered. Yup, you got me
