Neither. It was simply quicker to write "State of Palestine" than "Palestinian territories on the West Bank" or something similar. I was using it as a geographic descriptor rather than a political acknowledgement. You seem to think the Zionist movement is monolithic in its ideology. It isn't and never has been since its earliest days. Some Zionists favor a two-state solution, others oppose it strongly. The Jewish Agency for Palestine, the operative arm of the World Zionist Organization, not only accepted the U.N. partition plan in 1947, but had in 1946 proposed its own two-state plan. A Palestinian state alongside Israel had been the basis of the Oslo Accords, but the Accords failed due to Palestinian intransigence.
