    (I am celebrating the lack of the 2 state line in case that wasn’t clear) While you and I know it is a not a resolution to the issue China seems to still say “2 state” every time they talk about the issue.

    The 2 state line surely would have been brought up in the discussions of the declaration and its absence means that the fact that 2 states is not a solution has been discussed in detail behind closed doors.

    We’ll wait to see if China’s next statement on the issue includes the line or not but this could be a big step forward.

      To be fair, even Hamas still says they would accept the “two state solution”. Because any kind of true and official Palestinian sovereignty is an existential threat to the entity. It would trigger a domino effect showing that the Zionist attempt to implement their “final solution” to the “Palestinian problem” has failed and their “greater Israel” dream is dead and buried.

      That would induce a wave of mass migration of settlers back to their places of origin, in addition to an economic collapse as the whole Ponzi scheme (justifying investment today with the promise of further land theft and territorial expansion tomorrow) that the entity runs on implodes.

      Viewed that way, a “two state solution” is just a step on the way to full liberation.
