This is roughly like advocating for ending the Russian-Ukrainian conflict by advocating for a one-state solution where the inhabitants can get democratic representation & equal rights.
- kajecounterhack 4y agoSure, but it feels different if you call the one state "New Ukraine" and the government is a democracy headed by iono, Zelensky. Also, the one state solution is not advocating for Israeli annexation of all Palestinian territory -- it's advocating for the view that Israel has already de facto annexed Palestine, and that the current Israeli government is implementing a brutal apartheid that needs to end. Calling the whole state something new, giving everyone citizenship, and electing new leaders won't solve everything but it's a valid perspective to have.
