  3.  @abdullahc6931  From the west? BDS + don't vote for people who aren't good representatives in the first place. Here's the big thing you have to understand Abdullah, average people can do very little to change Israel particularly people in the west. Actual change has to come from within the region and must be undertaken from a nation state level. Here we're talking for example a coordinated blockade on Israel from it's border countries and those countries whose territorial waters lie in the red sea passage, until Israel agrees to end the blockade on Gaza. Similarly south africa has just demonstrated that the ICJ is open to working towards justice. It is embarrassing that it was SA whom brought the case and not the arab league. An OPEC oil embargo on western countries until they agree to stop arming Israel would likewise go a long way. There is much that could be done, but very little that actually is. Because the truth is its been the official policy of the region to not intervene on behalf of the Palestinians since 1967. Without nation state champions willing to lay it all line and leave the possibility of military action on the table Palestine has no chance. I don't believe in a two state solution, it would just be a constant itch that couldn't be scratched for both sides and that simply will only lead to terrible things if it happened. More likely though it would never be possible. A single state solution with equality however has real potential to work, assuming a new name both sides are happy with could be chosen and a just democracy was formed.
