Just watch this video and understand why the two-state solution is dead. Israelis have simply made it impossible for a contiguous and viable Palestinian state to emerge.

The Israeli public is about to elect Benyamin Netanyahu as their Prime Minister. A man who rejects the two state solution and argues that the Palestinians should be denied self-government and, instead, be given “economic independence” within the tiny Bantustans just like in apartheid South Africa.

Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu grabs a green marker and jumps from his seat to sketch a map of the West Bank on a whiteboard. With vigorous strokes, the former Israeli prime minister and current leader of the rightwing Likud party outlines his plan for tackling the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

What emerges is not what the Palestinians and almost the entire international community have in mind, which is a contiguous Palestinian state that follows broadly the borders in place before the 1967 war and the Israeli occupation. Instead, Mr Netanyahu wants to see the West Bank divided into a collection of disconnected economic zones with dedicated business projects.

What people like “Bibi” fail to understand is that the Palestinians are not some people on whom which a solution can just be imposed. Either two-states or one-state? Israelis have made the choice with their destructive behavior. It’s time for the whole world to unite behind a one-state solution.
