Interesting. Why not?The main question in the OP is this: How will you convince me that in 100 years the one state will be a Jewish state as well as an Arab state? Exactly, how will you maintain the self-determination of the Jewish state with a Jewish character and a vibrant Jewish culture and Jewish ideals and values?
I think that's a legitimate concern. The only way I can imagine it is a federation of some type with two semi-autonomous regions?
Which really is just a variation of a two state solution. We agree. And also with Humanity. I just can't see a one state solution being possible.
Unless...the third possibility is to create a one-state Israel solution but to cede parts of the territory and some of its residents to Jordan and Egypt. Of course, that requires their co-operation. I wonder if that would be worth another thread?
Could be - for example, I can't see Gaza in a one state solution.
The antipathy would be difficult to reconcile and Gaza is the portion that most leans towards eradicating Israel.
