    I’m a centrist in that I think the Israelis and Palestinians should live happy, productive lives and not be shot.

    It just so happens that only one side seems to disagree with that.

      Judging from other commenters here, there are radicals from both sides wilfully ignoring atrocities of the team they pick. Two state solution is the only way that would allow peace for both Palestinians and Israelis.

        It seems like we’re headed to a One State Solution, and that state is Greater Israel. Purging everyone of a different ethnicity from the region “solves” the problem better than letting another Arab state build up its population and economy along your contested border. In fact, you could call it a kind of Final Solution.

        I think a three state solution would be a more stable one in the long run, one Israeli one Palestine and one buffer state in between which is like Bosnia which means that it have two governments a Israeli and a Palestinian.

          If they could agree on boundaries there wouldn’t be a war to begin with, if they could work together there wouldn’t be two separate countries at all.
