Better than the “we will take everything and kill you” solution Israel is offering.
Either way when it comes to organizations like Hamas their official positions (even though in this case it should be at least acceptable as a start) don’t really matter. There’s a reason I compared them with the IRA; when the injustice fueling these sorts of organizations fades away they either adapt by becoming governments or political parties (as Hamas attempted to do in the 2006 election) or fade away ala the IRA.
That sounds less like a two state solution than a “we are biding our time until we can take the rest” situation.

I can get on board with that. I hope you’re right.
