• W210255498 abstract "In this interview, Abunimah discusses a 'one-state solution' for all the people of Palestine; Jews, Christians and Muslims A two-state solution, with the land of Palestine divided into the state of Israel and a state for Palestine seems racist and unjust in the modern world. Why did the two-state solution win the support of the Palestinian leadership? The two-state solution was adopted by the Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO) as a pragmatic move, without conviction. Up until the 1980s, the official Palestinian position was in favor of a one-state solution, but the PLO leadership--and Yasser Arafat--then accepted a Palestinian state only in the West Bank and Gaza. They did so with the expectation that Israel would limit its' state to the other 78% of historic Palestine. There seems to be a strong current of political support both inside Palestine (including Hamas) and in the international community for a two-state solution. How, when and why did the one state movement (which calls for a single state of Palestine in which Jews, Christians and Muslims will live as equal citizens) emerge in Palestine? The support for the two-state solution is without real conviction. Increasingly, those policymakers are recognizing that the two-state solution is a convenient political fiction that is unachievable on the ground. As for the Palestinian movement for one-state, I think it never went away. I do not think many Palestinians ever bought into the two-state vision with real conviction. They were persuaded it was pragmatic. Once they saw that it was merely a way for Israel to continue colonialism by other means--exactly like the Bantustans--they have started to question it. But there is a real lack of political leadership to begin to present alternatives. What extent of support exists among Palestinians for a one state solution? Polls show that in the West Bank and Gaza, support for the two-state solution has never been above about 60 percent, and support for a one state solution has reached about 35 percent. It is remarkable how low support for a two-state solution has been given how heavily marketed it is. And it is encouraging that support for a one-state solution is so high, given that no major political figures have openly supported it. Among Palestinian refugees who live outside Palestine, support for a two-state solution has always been low--though we do not have exact figures. But the reason for that is clear: a two-state solution means that the right of Palestinian refugees to return to most of Palestine will have to be given up (the area that would be recognized as Israel). They will never accept that. This is the reason that the PLO leadership gradually excluded Palestinian refugees and others outside Palestine from decision-making. Finally, among Palestinians inside the 1948 borders of Israel, there is massive support for a state of all its citizens--in other words abolishing all forms of Jewish privilege in the state. So in principle, Palestinians in Israel are in favor of such a state. When I have spoken about this issue to Palestinians, principally in North America, the main response I get by far is 'This is a great idea, but the Israelis will refuse it.' Have there been other forms of the one state vision presented as possible solutions in the past. If so, what lead to their failure to win support? What can be learned from those experiences? Yes. Most recently it was the PLO's position in the late 1960s through the 1980s's to support a secular democratic state. But in reality this never went beyond a slogan. No serious work was done to build support for this idea among Palestinians, nor was any work done to describe what it means in practice. In particular, there was no discussion of what the position of the Israeli Jewish population would be in this vision. How would you respond to accusations that supporters of a one state solution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict are calling for the 'destruction of the State of Israel' and denying Israel's 'right to exist? …" @default.
