The other state will be composed of the non-moderates. Those that think that Israel is destined to occupy the entire area. And those that think that Palestine will reclaim all its old territory. And of course the religious nuts that have similar views expressed in a religious context. They will all be in this other state.

The idea that you can have a Palestinian state with both nuts and moderates is crazy. As well as the idea that you can have an Israel with settler terrorist Islamophobes and secular beeboppers is crazy.

My solution is the only practical solution.
The wackos on both sides will not settle for anything but a 100% solution, including, I believe, the less desireable parts of Israel/Palestine.

Short of one side winning a war ( a real war, where one side pounds the other into submission or one of attrition where nobody is left), I'm not sure there will be peace.
