Israel has settled on rightful Palestinian land without their consent and has done nothing but terrorize the people of Palestine forcing them into ghetto's and open air prisons whilst treating them with constant distain and cruelty therefor a one state solution in favour for native Palestinians is clearly the moral and only solution.

1948 nakba when 750,000 were forced out of their homes and 15,000 were killed. This qualifies as ethnic cleansing.
a child would reach this conclusion there should be no reason a grown adult is supporting the legitimacy of a genocidal war mongering land stealing culture destroying state. i would also like to point out that any israeli doing a dna test shows their origins in europe. very interesting right?

Palestine has always belonged to Palestinians, the Israeli's robbed them of their land, it was never theirs.

Despite Arabs making up almost half of the population of the land now split between Israel, Gaza and the West Bank, a Two State Solution would result in a new sovereign state of Palestine that comprises only 22% of historical Palestine - as stated by Chris McGreal in the Guardian.

Hamas have already said openly they want get rid of the Israelis. This isn't about a 2 state solution, it's about Islamic fundamentalists who want to murder, rape and pillage. Normal everyday Palestinians and Israelis can live in peace but not with hardline murderous Islamic leaders that even Islamic nations neighbouring them shun.

"Palestine: A Four Thousand Year History" by Nur Masalha, the number of settlers in the West Bank, and the variety of human rights groups, and international court decisions, labelling Israel as an Apartheid state.
@B6PK5X68mos8MO
The two state solution does not address the injustice of the ethnic cleansing from 1948 onwards. A Palestinian state would continue to be at the mercy of Israel
The Jews have always inhabited the land and Palestine was never a real place. It was named such by the Romans and following the Arab invasions of Christian and Jewish majority lands they massacred thousands and forcibly converted others. Don’t support Muslims when this is their history and they continue to repeat it.

when League of Nations set up Israel they allowed for Palestinian state in what is now Jordan. The Hashemites under the then king (grandfather of current Monarch) expelled them all. and now illegally occupy Jordan.
@BB7M8T52mos2MO
There was a 2-state solution put in place by the British Mandate in 1947. 77% of the land went to the Arabs, and is now Jordan. 23% of the land, including Gaza and the West Bank, went to the Jews. There should not be a Palestinian state which exists, governed by Hamas terrorists, as a threat to Israel, Jews, and democracy.
Israe is an oppressive state and the Jews do not need their own country anymore. There is no country that was exclusively made for any other country. Israel was a good thing immediately after world war 2 but not anymore
@B78WXT3Plaid Cymru 7mos7MO
I’m only so informed, but from what I’ve seen on social media, I believe that they (Israel) will find another way to enforce prejudice towards the Palestinians.
@B5WSSDJ 10mos10MO
I am completely against colonialism, where settlers invade or are planted into foreign land. I'm not suggesting that Israelis be removed, but they have no right to claim that land as their own, and their genocide in Gaza will be looked back on similar to the Holocaust in future. It is completely inhumane.
@9M33GPNCount Binface2yrs2Y
The inability of Israelis and Palestinians to come to terms on two states has led to a recent surge in interest in a one-state solution, partly out of a sense of hopelessness and partly out of fear that if the sides cannot negotiate a two-state solution, a de facto one-state outcome will be inevitable. But each version of the one-state solution is unacceptable to one side or the other, and it is difficult to see how one could be implemented in the foreseeable future without significant violence
