I would argue that a two-state solution is equally unlikely under the current circumstances.
But my overall point is not whether a one-state solution is viable, only that it is ideal, and I used it in the title to emphasize that I am not arguing against even people who want to completely dissolve the state of Israel as it exists now, but only against the idea that directly making statements that are antisemitic or in favor of ethnic cleansing is what I'm objecting to.
"Martyrs" does not inherently mean combatant; on the contrary, in the West martyrdom is more often associated with innocence and being targeted by unprovoked violence. By calling the mothers and daughters who are slaughtered by Israel martyrs, it emphasizes the injustice of their deaths while portraying them as more than victims.
I saw an anti-Israel march in my city not long ago. All these white “anarchist” kids were yelling “Mothers, daughters, all are martyrs!” I see little difference between them and neonazi skinhead punks.
Just for being anti-Israel? What?
Explanation: Gaius Trebonius was one of the assassins of Gaius Julius Caesar, of dictator and conqueror fame.
The thing is, while Caesar had assumed the dictatorship, he was also a genuinely popular lifelong partisan of the Populares, the champions of the poor against the ultrawealthy elite. When the ultrawealthy elite decided to murder Caesar, just like they had murdered numerous other Populare politicians in the past, including Populares who peacefully achieved high office, the people of Rome rioted, and the assassins of Caesar were forced to flee. They started a new civil war by marshalling their client connections in the east, hiring mercenaries and bribing soldiers - with some of the Legions the assassins claimed authority over being bribed 1,500 denarii per soldier - the equivalent of around seven years' pay.
They lost the ensuing civil war.

~~Exemption granted for Rome, which NEVER did ANYTHING wrong except for bringing civilization to UNGRATEFUL BARBARIANS who didn't DESERVE such a boon~~ Even Rome 😔
Fascists celebrating the concentration camps. Christ.
A one-state solution is “never” going to work because that’s the current solution.
Again, that's not what "one-state solution" means. "One-state solution" necessarily implies, for one, that there is a current problem in need of a solution; it would be extremely strange to say "The solution to the problem is the status quo."
When people say "One-state solution", they generally mean a single state encompassing all of Palestine and Israel with equal rights.
"Maybe another billion dollars for police to jerk off in their cruisers and collect overtime at the expense of all other municipal budgets will help!" - Political discourse in this fucking country
"You lost the election, therefore, you are wrong."
How unsurprising that you simp for the fascists after working so hard to see their victory through.
I find Chomsky grotesque in his campism, but to my knowledge Chomsky has only ever called for the settlements in Palestinian territory which are illegal by international law to be abandoned.
