will never happen because giving away the west bank will mean that 70% of the population & industrial base, including the capital, the cultural and economic capital and all major logistical hubs of the country are either on the border or 20 km away.
if a palestinian is created on that land and decide to go to war (which can never be ruled out considering armed struggle against us is a core part of palestinian national identity) we will most of the country on the front line, much of the population in direct artillery or cheap rocket range and be super vulnerable to a 7th october or yom kippur style attack.
palis want right of return to all the UNRWA "refugees" & even if it agreed to be a demilitarised state no one could enforce it since even now with israeli control many weapons still flow in from Jorden.
Add to that the fact that previous concessions like oslo or the gaza withdrawal not only didn't lead to peace but to mass deaths via pali terror - second intifada, the gaza rocket attacks & oct 7.
this is the main reason why 2 states hasn't happened and won't happen. sure there are strong pro-settlement political streams but even in the past when they weren't and even without them entirely this deal is just suicidal.
all the cunts that call on us to implement 2 states never offer a clear path that addresses these concerns because there isn't really any good way to deal with them.
this is not even a hasbara post this is just the main thing most people here will think about if you propose this and any effort to fix this dumpsterfire must be made with this in mind if they want it to work.
