This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.
Rules:
- No bigotry, anti-communism, pro-imperialism or ultra-leftism (anti-AES)
- We support indigenous liberation as the primary contradiction in settler colonies like the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Israel

Yeah but the West Bank is the two state solution; the problem with a two state solution is that Israel absolutely won't respect it and will just go ahead and build illegal settlements UNLESS a powerful third force militarily guards the rights of the second state, and good luck getting our government to go along with that.
Also I found out from watching Hasan's videos that the illegal settlers are about 700,000 people, and they're armed as well; you are NOT getting those people to leave peacefully. Apparently those settlers are also the genuine hard-coded fascists; the blood and soil types, replete with mythical explanations and openly saying the Arabs should be treated as second class citizens and be grateful for it (which makes me concerned about what they say off camera), believing that strength is justice and apparently being the sort to hate holocaust survivors because they see them as weak.
There's no realistic way to have a two state solution without a military force ensuring peace and no breaches of territory or rights, and even a one state solution does not guarantee equal rights to all, merely gaining the second class citizenship afforded to Arab Israelis who will probably see a further reduction in rights to compensate.
Actually now that I've typed all this up, I don't see a peaceful resolution to this. The Israeli government needs to be replaced with a better one, it's the central problem to any solution. Also if their democracy works the way I understand it, it sucks anyway; apparently you don't vote for the prime minister or the president, you vote for the Knesset and they elect a president and prime minister.
Any settler that hasn't left Palestine of their own accord yet is absolutely committed to settlerism.
Pretty much the point I've reached.
Two states only "works" with the dissolution of Israel such as it is and the creation of an entirely new second state alongside Palestine. At which point, why not just have one state?
