Two-state solution is better. Otherwise you’ll always have a dominant majority marginalizing the other, or at best you would have a political stalemate incapable of getting anything done.

The two state solution is definitely not better. It would mean both side ethenic cleansing because of the whole world allowed isrsel to build colonies all over the west bank. Thinking that israeli and palestinians can never live together is racist and antisemitic

It’s not racist and anti-semitic, it’s called being in touch with reality. Even western democracies are having issues with either stalemates causing ineffective governance, or a resurgence in populist extremism causing political instability.
You can’t just merge two vastly different societies with a history of open conflict under one political system and expect it to magically become some egalitarian multicultural utopia. History has shown countless times that it doesn’t work. Almost always, at least one group is marginalized and disenfranchised.

Believing that two semetic populations can never be in peace is antisemetic and racist. Since you believe in that it makes zero difference if the solution is a one state or two state because even with a two state solution. Both side could still attack
All your bullshit was excuses used by pro apparteith in Sourh africa.

I didn’t say they can “never” coexist in peace, I said the solution is more complex than simply throwing them into the same pot and saying “there, have democracy.”
If you’re just going continue to lean on strawman characterizations of what I’m saying, then we’re done here.
