    Only cons, a one state solution will never work for the other state and a two state solution will never leave the ground.

    "If we do not succeed in finding the path of honest cooperation and coming to terms with the Arabs, we will not have learned anything from our two thousand year old ordeal and will deserve the fate which will beset us.

    I should much rather see reasonable agreement with the Arabs on the basis of living together in peace than the creation of a Jewish state. Apart from the practical considerations, my awareness of the essential nature of Judaism resists the idea of a Jewish state with borders, an army, and a measure of temporal power.

    There could be no greater calamity than a permanent discord between us and the Arab people. Despite the great wrong that has been done to us [the Holocaust], we must strive for a just and lasting compromise with the Arab people. Let us recall that in former times no people lived in greater friendship with us than the ancestors of these Arabs."

    One state , one government , one military , one police force , one official language, one civil code, one land registry, All residents and visitors must recognize Israel was founded as and will remain a "jewish" homeland and the "Jews" from around the world will given priority to settlement land and the current immigration policies will remain intact. However anyone that does not sign an oath of aliegence to israel will be compensated for their property and granted an exit visa. Those without property will be given a severance payment and required to leave. All citizens that agree to the terms will be entitled to an israeli passport and unrestricted travel within israel.

    One state, excellent Idea, only pro no con, all Israeli Arabs move to Jordan AKA Palsetine.,

    Two state will never work,

    Death to Israel! – Heard at most anti-Israel demonstrations.

    I will never recognize the Jewish state, not in a thousand years! – Mahmoud Abbas

    From the river to the sea, from the north to the south, this is our land, our homeland. There will be no relinquishing even an inch of it. Israel is illegitimate and will remain so throughout the passage of time. It belongs to us and not the Zionists – Khaled Mashaal

    Today is Gaza. Tomorrow will be Ramallah. After that Jerusalem, then Haifa and Jaffa – Ismail Haniyeh.

    If it did happen it would be the death knell for the Jewish state of Israel.

    No pros in either one of them

    We don't need more voters for the wrong politicians and we don't benefit from their statehood, in fact it puts us at greater risk.
