"Settlement activity is unilateral and is completely adverse to the continued viability of a two-state solution and the possibility for our people to continue to exist. It's an attack on our people's right to life."
Years ago two states were possible. No longer. Fayyad and other PA officials know but won't say. One state for all its people is today's only option.
It's too obvious to ignore. It's impossible. Perhaps it will become internationally recognized.
Don't expect acknowledgement enough to shift the dynamic on the ground. Hardline Israeli obstinacy prevents it.
Netanyahu, of course, and most Knesset members reject it. Palestinians are considered sub-human. They're denied fundamental rights.
Nothing ahead suggests change. Conflict resolution remains distant. Netanyahu and likeminded hardliners stand firm on hidebound obstinancy. International disapproval is dismissed.
