A solution for this problem does not exist. Palestine would collapse in a two state solution and a single state solution would result in fighting within.

Both sides have major fault. Israel has cut off Gaza to the point of starvation, it even says in the interview why the civilians support Hamas. As I said in the other post, it a cause and effect downward spiral that both sides are contributing.

You do realize that Europeans invented the idea of the state, correct?
