That would desolve the state of Israel wouldn't it? That isn't really tennable for an Israeli government to do.

I really don't care whats tenable for a state born out of terrorism that has been carrying out ethnic cleansing and genocide against the indigenous people for the last 70 plus years.

They have no fucking legitimacy and as much right to continue to exist as the NSDAP government after WW2.

Do you think there are any solutions short of that? Because saying Israel should just dissolve is supremely unhelpful.

They could allow Palestinians full rights and statehood in Israel, with protections from the racist inhabitants.

To clarify, are you saying give the West Bank and Gaza strip statehood as a Nation of Palisade separate from Israel, or give the people there citizenship as Israelis?

Israel has no intentions of backing down, so in my feeble mind they should be given Israeli citizenship with extra protections.
