Doubt Israel would let it happen.
And doubt even more that Hamas would keep their word.
Yeah, quite likely on both parts, but the world has tried a one state solution the status quo (I've been corrected, current situation is not called one state) for how many decades now and we're seeing the results of that. Rather they try setting up an independent Palestine and working with the issues that come from that than just keep the genocide going.
Two state, interim UN appointed government, transition to Palestinian elected leadership maybe?. Easier said than done for sure but going down the current path is well... Not going great
Agree. It's time for an adult to break up this fight and establish stability.
The UN transitional Palestinian government can work. Much like the post WW2 Japan and Germany. But you need it in place for 20 years to build up that society from scratch. Maybe they can have a democratically elected legislature sooner, but the actual government would need to a UN run for a long time.
Also, Israel should pay for it as war crime reparations.
Plus some heavy peacekeepers forces to smack the Israeli government down if they start acting like dicks again.
The one state solution was never tried and never seriously proposed beyond some activist groups.
The two-state solution has been “in progress” since the Oslo Accords in 1993 to establish a Palestinian state on the territories occupied in 1967. The only party that prevented any actual progress is Israel with the continued expansion of illegal settlements and the 1995 assassination of the prime minister who signed the Oslo Accord. Since then successive Likud governments left the Oslo Accord in a zombie status before they officially killed it this month in the Kenesst.
Why are you talking about what you don’t know? It is frustrating to read people suggest the two-state solution as if the past 30 years never happened.
Sorry if my initial response was harsh. I hate seeing Zionist talking points repeated.
I am willing to try again and take the time to explain the history to you with sources and evidence and you can draw your own conclusions.
Doubt Israel but not Hamas.
Hamas has shown good faith and willingness to make peace for years, or at least since 2017 when they accepted 1967 borders. Israel and the US are the ones preventing a two-state solution. The Likud Party rejects a 2-state solution since establishment in the 1970s and still does to this day.
Why would you doubt the party most willing to make peace and negotiate other than colonialist chauvinism?
