  1. Only people who have never created anything or seen something novel believe two states can't happen. A new arrangement like foreign impartial police is certainly an option. It will take a generation to filter our the animosity sparked by decades of brutality, but that's not never. Germany today is not the Germany of 100 years ago by any stretch. To say in 1950 with all the debt, rebuilding and reparations that Germany could never be the economic powerhouse of the continent would've been pretty foolish considering the bailouts of the financial crisis and all the central banks who begged Germany to help them prevent great depressions. Aot can happen in 100 years, this nihiliste myopia isn't great thinking or inspiring leadership, it's cowardice and criminally lazy for analysts of the information age to submit without more than a single proposal explored. Everything that has ever happened had to happen for the first time at some point. Civilization is extremely young. We haven't figured it all out already so guaranteed the notion that "it simply can't happen that Palestinians get a state" is hubris in the strictest sense. It's so lazy so many people believe they already know so much about complex integrated systems they can accurately simulate dynamics spanning centuries off the top of their heads without even putting pen to paper to think it through first.
