...the two state solution...

After seeing what's gone on in the West Bank for years now, how can anyone still think a two state solution is possible? In the early 2000's I firmly believed it was the way to resolve the conflict, but now I don't think there's any chance of a Palestinian state ever happening. So taking out crimes against humanity such as ethnic cleansing, and ensuring Israel remains a democracy, what's the solution? One possible solution is Israel annexes the West Bank and Gaza and makes all Palestinians Israeli citizens. But the problem is that Israel has always wanted the land, but not the people. I've not got any more ideas, but think it's at the stage I no longer support a two state solution because of the impossibility of it happening.
