The two-state solution is a proposed diplomatic solution for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The proposal envisions an independent State of Palestine that borders Israel. Palestinian leadership has supported the concept since the 1982 Arab Summit in Fez. In 2017 the Hamas (a Palestinian Resistance movement that controls the Gaza strip) accepted the solution without recognizing Israel as a state. The current Israeli leadership has stated that a two-state solution can only exist without Hamas and the current Palestinian leadership. The U.S. would have to take a central role in any talks bet…

@9VD6K7V3mos3MO
A strong counter-argument to the two-state solution is that the current realities on the ground, such as Israeli settlements, make a viable Palestinian state nearly impossible. Additionally, ongoing hostility from some Palestinian factions towards Israel raises concerns about security and the sustainability of peace. Past failed negotiations, coupled with internal divisions within Palestinian leadership, further cast doubt on whether this approach can effectively resolve the conflict.
@9KSKML310mos10MO
Israel is an illegitimate state built on apartheid ideology. I support a free, self-determined Palestine where (formerly Israeli) Jews and Palestinians can coexist.
@9KNP36F10mos10MO
I do not think a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is possible. I support the abolishment of the ethno-state of Israel, and the formation of a new state that provides equal rights for all people regardless of race and religion.
@9KY7DCB9mos9MO
No, The land of Palestine should be returned to the Palestinians just as it was before the Zionist migration to their (Palestinians) land, claiming it as theirs (Zionists), and causing trouble amongst the locals(Palestinians).
@9JSGBK911mos11MO
Israel is a terorist state and should be charged with genocide of killing so many innocent children and families with a long occupation for 75 years
@9JWZHWW11mos11MO
No, Israel has continuously violated any attempt at peace.. The only way for the conflict to stop is by having a free Palestinian state.
@9T7LR7S4mos4MO
Theoretically, the two state solution should have been the best solution for both governments. However, with how hostile the current governments of Israel and Palestine are to each other, it does not work in it's current state; it would need reform in order to work.
@9VCS9JD3mos3MO
Israel took Palestine. it is Palestinian land. Palestine will be free!!!
@9V6JTKN3mos3MO
It was a palestinian country , so obviously palestine & israel shoud be combined and recognised only as palestine
@9V5ZSM73mos3MO
The government should support a full ceasefire of the genocide happening on the Palestinian population by the Israeli military
@9V4V9BF3mos3MO
No, Palestine deserves to have their land back since it was theirs to begin with.
No, dismantle the Israeli occupation and free Palestine
@9TW98DJ3mos3MO
The two state solution is apartheid and Israel is committing genocide in Palestine
@9TTDYHC3mos3MO
One state, non apartheid solution or israel returns all land and removes all settlers
@9TTDV9F3mos3MO
I support a unitary secular, socialist, Palestinian state.
No, there is only a one-state solution to the apartheid state of Israel.
No, Israel should stop committing genocide, and Palestine should be given back its land.
@9TPPX3Q3mos3MO
No, I support one-state solution (called Palestine).
I would prefer if the Palestinian people were given back the land that was stolen from them before anything. Why a two-state solution when the Israeli people have no right to the land?
@9TFZDRM3mos3MO
I think there will never be peace until Israel is completely gone. It shouldn't exist in the first place. Israel shouldn't and should never have been considered a state. They have killed and murdered THOUSANDS if not millions of innocent Palestinians in order to fully take their land and get rid of Palestinians completely. Israel is an apartheid state, they aim to ethnically cleanse Palestine. If the Canadian government is truly sorry for what they did to indigenous peoples in Canada. Then they would condemn Zionism and Israel.
@9T6X9HJ4mos4MO
Only if it is done with justice, by implementing affirmative action for Palestinians in order to reconcile with the horrors and harms done to them.
@9T6GQ6F4mos4MO
I support a United Socialist States of the Middle East with the working class, Arab and Jew alike, in power.
@9S8JJDL4mos4MO
Israel is a country built on ethnic cleansing amd genocide, and our country is funding that genocide. There should only be one state, Palestine, and Israel should not exist.
@9S7RNBTNew Democratic4mos4MO
No, I support a one-state solution: the Palestinian state.
@9RC9XH4New Democratic5mos5MO
No, Israel is a settler state and should not exist.
@9M789RR8mos8MO
Israel shouldn't exist and Palestinians should get all their land that belonged to them back.
@9LKJF598mos8MO
Israel is country that never should have been made and is currently committing genocide in the Gaza strip against the rightful people of that land the Palestinians
@9L7B9YK9mos9MO
No, the Israeli's are terrorists who violently stole the land from Palestinians as violent settlers
@9KXZ6Y7 9mos9MO
Israel must feel consequences for the damage it has done to Gaza, Palestine, and the Middle East as a whole through the terrorism of the IDF.
@9JZP7TY10mos10MO
Only if the Palestinians agree to recognize Israel and live in peace and prosperity and elect a democratic government
@B25LX3V1wk1W
Yes, but I know it's absolutely unrealistic as both sides have demonstrated an unwillingness to co-exist.
@B23DHJV2wks2W
No I Support A One State Solution For The State Of Israel To Turn Into The Secular Socialist State Of New Palestine Where Jews Muslims And Christians Can Live In Peace And Harmony
@B23CRQ32wks2W
No, only a 1 state solution, called Palestine from the river to the sea. Eliminate Israel from the world and we should finance, arm and train Hamas, Hezbollah, Fatah, Lion's Den, Ansar Allah and IRGC-Quds Force, PFLP, DFLP, etc.
@9ZYSZHV3wks3W
one state solution for palestine, israel is a genocidal state and a threat to the rest of the middle east
@9ZSZJPG4wks4W
yes, but only settled through open (free from imposition) dealings between both parties. Israel should only begin negotiating when there is no longer a national security threat posed by Palestinian terrorist organizations).
@9ZNXMHS1mo1MO
...Honestly? Both are absolutely horrible, i would split the region among the neighboring countries if they weren't nearly as bad. As it stands, my stance is that we need either a massive restructuring or an entirely new government for the region. One state with two regions to slowly integrate together would be preferable.
@9ZJDSY7New Democratic1mo1MO
I believe they should share the land. Being a two-state solution and/or being two different countries has caused them way too many wars since the first people who settled there.
@9ZJ56421mo1MO
Canada must stop criminalizing dissent against the support of Israeli apartheid. The Palestinian people must have sovereignty over their land. Palestinian territory must be decolonized. The IDF must be disbanded. This is not antisemitism, it's anti-colonialism and anti-nazism.
@9ZGGXJ61mo1MO
I believe that there should be a conflict resolution system where both states are able to agree upon and as for involving other nations, there should be a consequence action taken by both states.
@9YMT6F2New Democratic2mos2MO
Israel should be integrated into Palestine and all Israelies and Palestinians should be considered Palestinian.
@9YKGRZB2mos2MO
I believe both of them are terrorist and wrong, that no one can salvage the situation and that it will end with one or the other dying.
@9XJ225M2mos2MO
No, Palestine should be the only state in which both Israelis and Palestinians can live side by side
@9X3V5MB2mos2MO
Both states should be dissolved, and a new democratic one should form that acknowledges and enforces equal rights and freedoms for Palestinians and Israelis alike
@9WHRDPN2mos2MO
there should be one state that encompasses israel, west bank and gaza with all people having equal rights under the law
@9W9DFQ3Conservative2mos2MO
No two state solution. Jordan is Palestine, already exists. The Arabs of Gaza and the West Bank do not have a culture that in any way supports a responsible, productive, peaceful national entity.
@9W2JC3R2mos2MO
One state solution with equal rights of Palestinians and Israelis - a two state solution cannot exist when Israel continues to commit genocide against Palestinians
@9VWTJQ62mos2MO
I support a 1 state solution, however due to the diversity of the region, it would have less centralization and be more akin to a confederation.
@9VW59ZN2mos2MO
This has been offered repeatedly. Unless these countries stop electing terrorists, there will never be in the Arab world. They just hate Israel, terrorists don’t want a solution.
@9VGGMWSConservative3mos3MO
It doesn't matter what I support. It's up to them.
@9V79QX43mos3MO
One post colonial, secular nation where both palestinians and israelis have equal rights
@9V5W8K73mos3MO
No, abolish Israel and establish a Christian state on the land of Judea
@9V249ZQ3mos3MO
Yes, but only after the demilitarization and deradicalization of Palestinian society.
@9TZBCQN3mos3MO
no, Palestine should be its own free country as it was before Israel came to be
@9TYZTWF3mos3MO
Only Israel rules. No Palestine, no Arabs, and no f... Islam
@9TVPNXW3mos3MO
i support the end of all wars which only takes a strong U.S President to do and has been done during the 2016-2020 election period.
@9TVMPLK3mos3MO
One state with equal rights for Israelis and Palestinians. Abolish the Israeli apartheid.
@9TVBQKB3mos3MO
No. Palestine should be free. Israel has no right to exist.
I support a one-state solution in favour of the Israeli side and the expulsion of all Moslem Arabs from Israel's borders.
One state solution which is equal for both palestinians and jews
Abolish Israel as a state and give Palestinians sovereignty over their own land.
@9TQT6NC3mos3MO
I support a one state solution made up of a binational state containing both Israelis and Palestinians
@9TH4SPWConservative3mos3MO
Why do Canadians need to weigh in on this? I don’t think it’s any of our business.
@9TDY6LB3mos3MO
No, we can live together in one democratic and secular state.
@9TCHTQYNew Democratic3mos3MO
Yes, and Israel should pay reparations for the damage they inflicted on Palestinians
@9SW5R6B 4mos4MO
Yes, but first eliminate the terrorist group Hamas.
@9SL7F3M4mos4MO
Right now the government should Stay out of it (but support Israel’s right to self Defence).
@9SKWLRJ4mos4MO
Only if Iran and all of its proxy groups are unable to control the new Palestinian State.
@9RQNPMR5mos5MO
It is a mess and generations of hate encouraged by the political machinations of other countries. The only workable peace could come from the younger generations deciding enough is enough and opting to work together for the future.
@9RPNFCW5mos5MO
No, as the Palenstinians will never accept a peaceful outcome. They want war, they want the total destruction of the Israeli state. Isreal should reclaim all of its land from the Arabs.
@9RKXXXJ5mos5MO
Yes. As long as Palestine lays down their arms & stops starting wars with Israel
@9RJN3HS5mos5MO
But only if Palestine is not governed by Hamas or some other terrorist group
@RusticReagentLibertarian 5mos5MO
Palestine is so unstable that a split from Israel is not wanted.
@9RCSWCH5mos5MO
no, the land should be returned to the indigenous palestinian people. the israeli state should be abolished.
@9RCQ4NM5mos5MO
I support a single state with equal rights for all, similar to how South Africa is now one state instead of racially segregated Bantustans.
@9RC97PLNew Democratic5mos5MO
Yes, but only as a stop-gap between full integration as a single country granting full rights to Palestinians. A two state solution will prolong animosity in the long run.
No, one state solution with equal rights for Jews, Muslims and Christians
@9QYHT2W5mos5MO
They can figure it out themselves. Keep religious wars between those fighting them.
@9QVT6N36mos6MO
One state, neither Israel nor Palestine, should have Arabic and Hebrew as official languages and recognize Islam, Christianity and Judaism as official religions. Protect holy sites.
@9P3FXVC7mos7MO
Yes, but United States and other countries should not interfere within this, and Hamas should legislatively and financially pay for the damage it caused to Israel.
@9NQ4FYDNew Democratic7mos7MO
An united democratic democratic state consists all residents of the Palestinian region regardlessly.
@9NHP5N97mos7MO
Only if the Palestinian state isn’t run by terrorists or any organization that doesn’t acknowledge Israel’s right to exist
@9MYNRMN7mos7MO
I support a secular 1 state solution with universal rights.
@9MW8Y2BConservative7mos7MO
no, nobody on planet Earth would like to share their house with thieves.
@9MPJ6247mos7MO
no, jordan gets west bank, egyot gets gaza and abolishe hamas
@9MP7X29Conservative7mos7MO
I believe it isn't up to us, it is their choice, not ours.
@9MMZ9Q77mos7MO
No egypt should get gaza and jordan gets west bank
@9RBR7YN5mos5MO
I am completely indifferent. I could not possibly care less.
@9RBNFB75mos5MO
A 2 state solution is impossible without major concessions from Isreal on giving land back and power over infrastructure. Only a one state solution is viable.
@9QZ6RCB5mos5MO
No. Palestine has refused 4 peace treaties & broke the recent ceasefire on October 7th. We don't negotiate with terrorists
@9MKYKGX7mos7MO
No, I support a one-state solution where Israel is replaced with a secular Palestinian state across all of its historic pre-1948 territory.
If the Palestinians are willing to form an equitable and democratic society. Otherwise no.
@9M4LF5F8mos8MO
No, but I think it’s very important there is a ceasefire implemented immediately
@9LMCHCFConservative8mos8MO
Only if it is agreed upon by both sides unilaterally
@9LBHDM7 9mos9MO
either a two-state solution or a bi-national solution
@9KLT7LCRhinoceros10mos10MO
It depends on the specifics of the suggested solution.
@9KFNCCN10mos10MO
There should be a two state solution, where palestine is protected by a coalition of middle eastern countries. And Benjamin Nethanyahu's cabinet should stand before an international tribunal for commiting genocide and war crimes. Those found guilty should not only be removed from office, but receive the death penalty. Which I am normally against, but promote for any and all government officials complicit in genocide, and war crimes.
@9KBWSK810mos10MO
Yes, with international panel governance and Israel veto powers until terrorism is rooted out and governance can be safely transitioned to democratic elections.
@9JZVYL6New Democratic 10mos10MO
Yes, but I would rather there be one state wherein religious/ethnic groups are not separated or at war and instead co-exist peacefully, however unrealistic such a proposition may be at this moment in time.
