In the shadow of the two-state solution and the presence of a compromise and negotiations, the bases, upon which a state can be established on the lands occupied in the year 1967, have been destructed in a methodological way, the very thing that makes the idea of the two-state solution and the Palestinian state just like a mystery or a puzzle that needs a wizard to tell us where on earth this state, the American administration speaks of, will come to life? And what are its features and references?
The ambiguity around the idea of the Palestinian state is not recent and is not restricted to the American and Israeli visions, but it goes back to the very first moment when the idea came to light. If we attempted to count the descriptions and definitions that addressed the Palestinian state issue, we will find a diversity of them, so if we denied the concept calling for freeing the whole Palestine and end the Zionist presence in there due to the fact that the current situation makes it no longer possible to achieve this goal, this does not mean we do not think of it, because the other alternatives are connected with a state emerging as an outcome of a political compromise.
The compromise-based state was first put forward by virtue of the dividing resolution of the year 1947, here we can say that this kind of a state is the only viable one because it is geographically connected and established according to the same international resolution that granted the legitimacy for Israel as a Jewish state, but the 1948 war, armistice agreements, Arab and Palestinian rejection to the dividing resolution and the establishment of Oslo compromise according to the Security Council’s resolutions No. 242 and 338 plus other resolutions from the international legitimacy; all this made this state surpassed.
After that came the Palestinian Liberation Organization in 1971 and adopted the goal of a democratic secular state on the whole Palestinian territory without abandoning the strategy of revolution and armed struggle, this goal was met with rejection not only among the Israeli circles, but also among some Arab and Palestinians powers and alternatively the state issue was raised again under the logo of a bi-national state, but this time it was raised by powers and personalities irrelevant to the issue.
