The answer to the question of how to resolve the conflicting
claims over Palestine has been to partition Palestine into two
states. This assumes, however, that the parties only have a
dispute over land, but this has never been the case. The
conflict has always had political, religious, historical,
geographical and psychological dimensions. The international
community's unwillingness to accept this reality has led to the
continued fantasy that a two-state solution is possible. An
honest appraisal of the historical record indicates it was never
possible for one principal reason, the Palestinians have never
been prepared to share any part of the land they claim as
their own. This irredentism is based in large measure on the
view that Jews have no place in the Islamic world - except as
second-class citizens (dhimmis) under Muslim rule. No UN
resolution or State Department formula will change this reality
and therefore it is time acknowledge the two-state idea as
presently conceived is dead.
