We need a more comprehensive solution @LukefromDC
The world in general, and Jews in particular, will be safer when the Zionist state no longer exists.

As Miko Peled observed, Israel and Palestine are the same place. He believes that Jews and Arabs can live together peacefully. That may be true, but by all appearances, it's true of probably less than 20% of the population. The remaining 80% would need to be homed elsewhere.

Palestine is sacred to more than Judaism and Islam. Ideally, I'd like to see it established as World Heritage. Protected by the world at large and thus needing no armed forces. I can dream, can't I?

What of the other 80%? Netanyahu advocates a state in Sinai for Palestinians, so let's make that two states. I think of them as sanatoria. Unarmed and heavily guarded, to protect them from each other and the world from them.

Plus a couple of very large prisons.

As you seem to be confused @8124

And in case you think article 10 applies, see articles 11, 12 & 13.

For centuries, Arabs, Christians and Jews shared Palestine. Then the Zionists started arriving. A decent solution will return to the situation before the advent of Zionism in Palestine.

To paraphrase article 12 of the Jerusalem Declaration:
Arabs, Christians and Jews should be able to live together in peace, as equals, in the area between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean.

The term "antisemitism" used to be powerful. Zionists have neutered it. Quite sad, really.

"... formerly an anti-Semite was somebody who hated Jews because they were Jews and due to their Jewish nature and their race… Nowadays an anti-Semite is somebody who is hated by a certain type of Zionist. Like one of the important Nazi leaders, Göring, said, “I determine who is a Jew.” And so the Zionists determine who is an anti-Semite. And as I say, I’m proud to be one of those."

Thanks @nus
The admin of Babka, @serge and I have met (online, not in person). The term "antisemitism" used to be powerful. Zionists have neutered it. Quite sad, really.

@palestine @israel

You keep pointing out that we cannot make two states work
@thoralf
If you're not saying that two states have proven to be no solution, then you're not saying anything.

Two states being no solution and Miko Peled's one state being no solution for the majority of the population, we need something else. For centuries, Arabs, Christians and Jews shared Palestine. Then the Zionists started arriving. A decent solution will return to the situation before the advent of Zionism in Palestine.

The form of Jewish Zionism that spawned Israel has had more than a century to create the current predicament. Fixing it will take a while.

A recovering Zionist speaks:
"The Palestinian people did nothing wrong. Their ‘big crime’, for which they are being eliminated is that they happened to live on the land that the Zionists coveted for an exclusively Jewish ghetto state."

Tell that last bit to the Palestinians @thoralf
As you said, two states has proven to be no solution. Those who can live peacefully together should be encouraged to do so - in Palestine. Those who won't live peacefully together are a problem for the world (hence the two sanatorium states - some of the recalcitrant might be cured). Then' of course, there are the criminals.
