Two state solution?
#3
There is no alternative plan. That is the issue.

A one state solution will have Palestinians become a majority minority and threaten the "Jewishness" of Israel. The right wing in Israel wants to avoid this by preventing full citizenship. This is where the accusations of 'apartheid' come from. From their point of view they can continue to 'settle' the West Bank making any solution more impossible by the year. (And their hearts are really into ethnic cleansing.)

The most problematic thing is that there is no longer a 'left' in Israel of any size. The country has moved further and further to the right with each challenge to citizen safety. This is a natural reaction, but means a deal is farther away than ever.

Netanyahu has very cynically sought to allow these 'safety' issues to occur (eg, by looking the other way at Hamas). This has allowed the right to become stronger with each passing year.

This is why there is such despair in the rest of the world.
