Clean sweep for UAE in golf as the hosts win team gold and Rayan claims individual title
Trump has upended all that when he said he was "looking at two-state and one-state" options, and would be "very happy with the one that both parties like." He spoke before meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who pointedly avoided mention of the two-state solution.
"A one-state solution is the end of Zionism," says Shlomo Avineri, a professor of political science at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. "Zionism is about a Jewish national state, not a binational state."
An Israeli state that includes the Palestinians could deny them equal rights and lose its Jewish majority to a faster-growing Arab population, according to the critics.
Saeb Erekat, the chief Palestinian negotiator, says jettisoning the two-state solution would be a "disaster for both Palestinians and Israelis."
The only alternative is "one democratic state of Jews, Christians, and Muslims living in one state as equal citizens in one country," Erekat says. "Netanyahu's scheme of trying to impose one state with two systems, an apartheid regime, is not doable in the 21st century."
"Our understanding of one state would be a democracy with equal rights in which I could become president or prime minister of Israel," says Mustafa Barghouti, a prominent Palestinian legislator and activist. "If this state is truly a democracy it cannot be Jewish, it will be a joint state. I would love to go back to one democratic state in which Palestinians can live in [the Israeli cities] of Jaffa and Haifa. But a one-state solution for Netanyahu would be nothing but consolidation of a full apartheid system in all the area of Palestine."
