There are but three possible solutions: 1. One state solution 2. Two state solution, independent side by side states 3. Genocide What does Israel want? Number one is off the table because demographics would make the Jews a minority and as much as they love to claim they are the only democracy in the Middle East, they won't accept a democracy where Arabs have the numerical advantage. The world won't accept apartheid which is what the Israeli's really want so no acceptable outcome for Israel here Number two is off the table because the Israeli's won't give up the land they have already stolen so every offer is always going to be unacceptable to the Palestinians, additionally a defined border prevents further land theft. The idea of Jordan absorbing the West Bank and Egypt absorbing Gaza doesn't work as this option would still require a defined border with Israel and the Israeli's will not like that because, as mentioned, it ends their ability to keep stealing land. Number three appears to be the Israeli's preferred option. A slow moving genocide of an entire people. Make life as unbearable as possible in the hope that the Palestinians will give up and leave of their volition until their numbers dwindle to such a level that option one - a one state solution becomes viable. Its good to be discussing a full solution to this 100+ years conflict. I disagree with you that a zero-state solution for Palestinians will be the outcome, when the Palestinians die out or leave their lands. More opimistically, can I offer this at first sight overly optimistic 2 state option: 1. Palestinians realize they won't get the entire land of Palestine back. They won't win against Israel which has unswerving support from USA. 2 aircraft carriers, surely makes that clear. 2. Israel needs to come clean about the history of Zionism since 1895 and apologize. Just as countries such as Holland are now apologizing and accepting their role and immoral actions in creating colonies, slavery. Say sorry, accept it waa wrong to push native population out of lands they colonised. Israel can say sorry. Forgive us. But we are in Israel now, and prospering. Israel can then offer to help make a viable palestinian state with genuinely fair share of the territory. And offer to help palestinians build it and prosper. Palestinians can see this as an honest attempt to move on. Agree to work for a fair 2 state solution. How about that for a happy ending ! I should become a statesman. Both sides giving up strongly felt beliefs and animosity for a peaceful future. Edited October 31, 2023 by deejai33 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any Israelis still alive who were responsible for whatever happened in 1895 then I absolutely agree they should apologise. If they are all dead then the people alive today are not any more responsible than I am for whatever my great, great, great grandparents did during that period. Isreal already tried giving Palestinians support to turn Gaza into a prosperous state, but citizens of Gaza chose hate instead. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMojoRisin Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) 2 hours ago, Yellowtail said: No, per the link, only about 45% do not support hamas' exterminating the Jews. About 12% a great deal, about 18% quite a lot, and about 22% not a lot. That 52% that support, and less than 45% (None at all) that don't support hamas' exterminating the Jews. I always liked Topcat (and Hong Kong Phooey). Your understanding of the polling you're quoting is quite deficient. When asked how they would vote if presidential elections were held in Gaza and the ballot featured Ismail Haniyeh, the leader of Hamas, Mahmoud Abbas, the president of the Palestinian Authority, and Marwan Barghouti, an imprisoned member of the central committee of Fatah, the party led by Abbas, only 24 percent of respondents said they would vote for Haniyeh. Barghouti received the largest share of support at 32 percent and Abbas received 12 percent. Here's a morsel you can get some milage out of: Most Gazans attributed the lack of food to internal problems rather than to external sanctions. ... In short, Gazans were more likely to blame their material predicament on Hamas’s leadership than on Israel’s economic blockade. This not so much milage for you: Overall, the survey responses indicate that Gazans desire political change. About half of Gazans expressed support for democracy: 48 percent affirmed that “democracy is always preferable to any other kind of government.” Given the low opinion most Gazans hold of their government, it is unsurprising that their disapproval extends to Hamas as a political party. By and large, Gazans do not share Hamas’s goal of eliminating the state of Israel. When presented with three possible solutions to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict (as well as an option to choose “other”), the majority of survey respondents (54 percent) favored the two-state solution outlined in the 1993 Oslo accords. No mention of exterminating Jews in the article so can't give any figures on it - you should just go with your gut feel - it's not as if facts are important to you. https://www.foreignaffairs.com/israel/what-palestinians-really-think-hamas#:~:text=On the eve of Hamas's,percent of the adult population.
