The 2-state solution has historically failed to deliver security for Israel due to repeated Palestinian rejectionism, as seen in the 1993 Oslo Accords and subsequent breakdowns. Recent trends show growing Palestinian resistance and regional instability, undermining the viability of a two-state framework.

The Oslo Accords didn't fail because of Palestinian rejectionism—they collapsed due to Israeli political dysfunction and lack of strategic vision. The real issue is that Israel has never treated a two-state solution as a genuine peace process, but rather as a way to delay the hard choices of demilitarization and coexistence.

The argument that Palestinian rejectionism caused the Oslo Accords' collapse ignores the systemic Israeli policies that undermined trust and security, as detailed in the 2021 report by the Jerusalem Institute for Israel Studies.
