The One-State Solution

The two-state solution has one to two years left before it is finished. So stated John Kerry to Congress. That the Secretary of State even hints at the possibility reinforces the idea that a new era is upon us, which many have been proclaiming for some time. The two-state solution is in fact dead. The question is where to go from here.
If a solution along the lines of the international consensus which has held for many years – two states, shared Jerusalem, and a resolution on refugees that both Israelis and Palestinians can live with, whatever that might be – is no longer viable, Israel is going to be left with very tough choices.
