    Egypt is offering aid. Israel isn’t happy with that, though.

    Presumably, they’d finally have control over their own water, electricity, trash, etc. And international recognition would help them avoid Israel just taking over more land like they have in the past and are currently doing in the West Bank. But it’s complicated. Idk even know if I’m for a one-state or two-state solution. I feel like I keep bouncing between them, because you’re right, there’s still some problems with the two-state solution.

    It would be better if they could all share the land in peace, without the settler colonialism. Maybe with some Constitutional guarantee of rights so the more numerous Palestinian population didn’t immediately use their votes to fuck over the Jewish population there as soon as they got the right to vote. But idk, I’m not some doctorate in international and Middle-Eastern relations, I’m just a person who doesn’t like civilian deaths and wants to see it all stop 😔

      I totally agree. I think a separate internationally recognized Palestinian state is the only solution to keep Israel from encroaching on any more land than they have. That’s been offered in the past but turned down by the Palestinians. A separate Palestinian state will also not prevent both sides from firing rockets at each other until the end of time.
