Zionists accepted the 1947 partition plan (and as far as I know Peel's 1937 plan to a much smaller territory). The Palestinian leadership rejected both outright.
In addition Zionists proposed the 2 state solution twice (Camp David 2001, Olmert's plan in 2008) to be rejected twice. To this day there hasn't been a clear consent by a Palestinian leader to let go of the Palestinian right of return, nor has there been a prominent Palestinian leader that accepted any kind of border resolution before the Palestinian Nakba. I've never seen it, would be glad to be shown otherwise. So it's pretty much a long trend of Palestinian rejectionism for any kind of solution.
You are cherry picking the facts that agree with your world view and ignoring the rest.
- racional 2y agoAside from this being an unrealistic description of events -- it's also quite a change of subject. We weren't talking about the failure of the Oslo process (which had multiple factors apart from the cartoonish depiction above), or the various failures by both sides at any other stage in this slow-motion human catastrophe. And certainly not about some alternate fandom history of what could have happened in 1947 or 1937. You can cherry pick all you want, as long as you stick to the subject.
