My point to you is there’s plenty of disagreement among historians. In the context of this original thread we’re so far from it that debating what academics can’t agree on after decades isn’t going to happen anytime soon.
Nobody is straw maning you. And at this point we can agree to disagree, a one state solution will never ever happen. There’s too many war crimes on both sides, and too much radicalization of the populations, too much history.
The only one state solution is going to be the existing Palistinian Arabs who became Israeli citizens (is it still at 20% of Israel’s population, I haven’t looked in a long time)? And we probably compeltely agree that the way they’re treated as second class citizens is a crime, and still a fight that needs to be won. First step, get rid of fucking Likud. ;)
I personally think 2 state is the best bet. If I had my idea…. we’d evacuate and seal off Jerusalm forever. Nobody can live together in peace, nobody gets the prize. Fuck all that religious nonsense. The dammed place causes nothing but awful anyway, it’s a shitty evil piece of dirt.
Gotta run, so don’t have time to proof read or spell check… my apologies.
PS: I will check out the books. Thanks for the recommenation.
