So far, supporters have presented strong arguments about the potential for peace, security, and economic cooperation that a two-state solution could bring to both Israelis and Palestinians. Opposers have raised valid concerns about the feasibility of such a solution, including issues of land division, security threats, and the legacy of past conflicts. What we haven’t seen yet is a detailed discussion on how to address the specific territorial disputes, especially regarding East Jerusalem and the West Bank, which are critical to resolving the issue.
Discussion
The territorial disputes, especially around East Jerusalem and the West Bank, are deeply tied to both historical and religious claims. A two-state solution would need to address these issues through mutually agreed-upon borders, with clear delineation of sovereignty and security arrangements that protect both populations.
The key to resolving East Jerusalem and the West Bank lies in a negotiated settlement that acknowledges both parties' historical and religious ties while ensuring mutual security. A two-state solution requires clear borders, agreed upon by both sides, and a commitment to peaceful coexistence.
