The recent recognitions of a Palestinian state and the October 10 ceasefire have been followed by a flurry of calls to “deradicalize” Palestinian society. The New York Times editorial board went so far as to compare this deradicalization project to the denazification of Germany after the Second World War. These calls have the situation backwards to the point of farce.
That would be nice, but its basically impossible at this point. Neither side would accept the other being a part of their governance. The only way to get to one state now is, well, to do what everyone is accusing Israel of doing right now.
