Israel has wanted two states for two people for 70 years. It’s the Palestinians who continue to reject it. The onus is on them to announce their strong desire for their own country, a “right of return” to only this new country and not Israel, and to live side by side in peace. They do that, it’s a done deal.

“ Israel has wanted two states for two people for 70 years.”

Not true.

The two-state solution is the illusory end product of a U.S.-conceived “peace process” that has always been about things other than actually achieving peace—just as, contrary to the conventional trope, the U.S.-Israeli “special relationship” is not really about “shared values.”

It’s time to reject Palestinian rejectionism. The Arab world has figured out it's better to work with the Jewish state rather than against it.
