Ever since Trump recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, there has been a good deal of talk about abandoning the “two-state solution” with an Israel and a Palestine, and simply incorporating all of the Palestinian territories into a greater Israel.
This could happen, but it will mean one of two things. Israel will be a democracy, but it will no longer be a Jewish state. Muslims voters will predominate. On the other hand, Israel will be a Jewish state, but it will no longer be a democracy. It will need to keep Palestinians in a subordinate status.
Neither of those alternatives appeals to me.
