—Nasir Khan The idea of a one-state solution looks attractive on paper, but there are many serious issues we need to consider if the Israel-Palestine conflict is to end. Some prominent writers and political figures have advocated this solution. This is an idea I have also supported, but with some reservations. Israel was founded on a supremacist ideology, the ideology of Zionism. This ideology has ruled every part of the colonial entity since 1949. As long as that ideology is the foundation of this entity, any question of a one-state is not possible. However, if the ruling class of Israel and the United States turn away from this supra-racist ideology, then the idea of a one-state solution may be possible. Without this change, a one-state solution will remain an idle dream.
