"Binationalism" and the One State Solution in Israel

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binational_solution

Interesting. Looks like I wasn't the only person ever to think of this.

Not going to ever happen until Palestinian organizations renounce violence. Period.

Fixed it for you.

If it's good enough for Iraq, it's good enough for Palesrael.

It's a fantasy. I don't see the Israelis ever going for being in a minority position in a secular state. The country is filled with people who left where they lived just because they couldn't feel safe living among a hostile population who hated them for being jewish.

Ding Ding Ding. We have a winner!

Jews are the minority and need to maintain their dominance with force.

And yet we went to war to end a Sunni minority from dominating a country with force. (so goes the latest justification for our misadventure in Iraq).

Well, if the Israelis stopped doing our bidding we would invade them as well. Remember, we are the ones who supported that Sunni minority so that they could dominate the majority.

Who is doing who's bidding? Last I heard, we were the ones funneling tons of money and military aid over there in exchange for butkus.

I think you mean "bupkis".

I thought he meant Butkus, and I think we might be coming out ahead.

I wondered why that sounded so familiar.

correction aint gonna happen because all solutions accepted by most political parties (except maybe the arab ones) are 2 or multi state solution (multi either seperate state for gazza/west bank or meaning the palestinians will go to arab nations....) .

before a one state solution in israel could happen the world will see a few nuclear devices detonate on this planet.
