    Thankfully democratic institutions with likeli guide a change in Israeli policy here. Netanyahu is on his way out.

        “Meanwhile, most of protestors in Tel Aviv are wary of making this connection and are horrified by speakers who try to connect the palpable risk to democracy with the occupation of the territories or the waving of Palestinian flags in protest. However, the moment may well come when they too will recognize that there is no democracy alongside occupation.”

        Haven’t I been reiterating my support and official US policy for a 2 state solution?

            Palestinians would want two states so they can govern themselves in a sovereign nation, while concurrently Israel can do the same.

              Palestinians need a state I agree, not sure what the second state would be for

              Most of the world already recognized Palestinian statehood by the way, not the US or the civilized and european west though

                The second state would be the counterpart to Palestine in a 2 state solution. Based on historical context, this would be the Israeli government.

                  Israel isn’t a real state, it’s a neoimperialist attack dog that occasionally forgets its leash. It’s theft and murder incarnate. If you really consider historical context to be important and still hold to a two-state solution as the ideal outcome, then I’m sorry, you’re lacking a great deal of historical context and haven’t the right to invoke it here.

                    Unfortunately the stain of religion has caused the fruition of needless casualties throughout the centuries. As the world becomes more atheistic over time due to the nature of scientic discovery, my hopes for change grow.

                    Based on official US policy, the support for a 2 state solution remains remarkably unchanged and clear.
