THREAD: The one-state solution is getting a lot of attention because of @PeterBeinart's recent columns. Here's a thread of some recent articles by Palestinians laying out the case for one-state:
"The case for a democratic one-state solution for Israelis and Palestinians" by George Bisharat https://www.latimes.com/opinion/op-ed/la-oe-bisharat-one-state-palestinian-israel-trump-netanyahu-20190523-story.html
In the LA Times, @sareemakdisi makes his own case for one-state and the dismantling of Israel's oppressive apartheid https://www.latimes.com/opinion/opinion-la/la-op-makdisi11-2008may11-story.htmlsystem
. @dianabuttu:"History demonstrates that ethnic privilege ultimately fails in a multiethnic society. Palestinians and Israelis are fated to live together. The real question is how - under a system of ethno-religious privilege or under a system of equality?" https://www.bostonglobe.com/opinion/2012/02/29/united-democratic-nation-with-equal-rights-for-all/ZQ5PLdMI9LBJSMHCHq6Y4N/story.html
Here's @YousefMunayyer, writing last year: "The time has come for all interested parties to instead consider the only alternative with any chance of delivering lasting peace: equal rights for Israelis and Palestinians in a single shared state." https://www.foreignaffairs.com/articles/israel/2019-10-15/there-will-be-one-state-solution
In 2014, @AliAbunimah wrotes in the New York Times of the need to dismantle Israel's "settler-colonial garrison society," and calls for equality for Palestinians and Palestinian refugee return https://www.nytimes.com/roomfordebate/2014/04/24/can-hamas-fatah-unity-lead-to-mideast-peace/only-a-single-state-solution-will-bring-peace
. @4noura detailed the singular legal system--a regime that is an apartheid regime--that discriminates against Palestinians and upholds the privilege and power of Israeli Jews in every area of life https://www.jadaliyya.com/Details/25329
The famed Palestinian intellectual Edward Said in 1999: "I see no other way than to begin now to speak about sharing the land that has thrust us together, sharing it in a truly democratic way, with equal rights for each citizen" https://www.nytimes.com/1999/01/10/magazine/the-one-state-solution.html
Omar Barghouti: "A true inclusive democracy, free from all colonial subjugation, discrimination and oppression, would enable Palestinian refugees to return and include Jewish Israelis as equal citizens and full partners in building a new shared society" https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/24/opinion/letters/israel-palestinians-bds.html
