Yousef Alcott AbedRabo Colombes

Published by Mondoweiss, 2018/08/04 “The beginning is to develop something entirely missing from both Israeli and Palestinian realities today: the idea and practice of citizenship, not of ethnic or racial community, as the main vehicle of coexistence.”–Edward Said, 10 January 1999, “The One-State Solution,” The New York Times Magazine. Introduction We are supporters of One Democratic State (ODS), some of us …

Rima Najjar

https://www.quora.com/Is-Israel-a-secular-state-capable-of-absorbing-Palestinians-in-a-one-state-solution Yes, Israel is certainly capable of absorbing Palestinian refugees and exiles (those who wish to return, as is their right), but it is strongly opposed to restoring Palestinian rights, because that would mean turning Israel and all the Palestinian territory it controls into a secular and democratic state for all its citizens – i.e., it will no longer be a Jewish …

There are lessons to be …

Edward Said: The One-State Solution

Edward Said

By Edward Said Jan. 10, 1999 Given the collapse of the Netanyahu Government over the Wye peace agreement, it is time to question whether the entire process begun in Oslo in 1993 is the right instrument for bringing peace between Palestinians and Israelis.

Ben White: The one-state solution is the only solution

Ben White

Palestinians are dehumanised in death, as they are in life.Those gunned down by Israeli snipers – who, army officials assure us, carefully record every shot – are not husbands, sons, brothers, friends, colleagues, journalists, students or medics. They are ‘terrorists’. Pawns. Cannon fodder.The dehumanisation of Palestinians is, of course, an intrinsic part of decades of colonialism, apartheid and occupation, but …
