"#Greens & the Coalition joined forces to REJECT a ... government amendment to the motion’s wording that embraced a "TWO-STATE solution" and, if accepted, would have allowed ALL #Labor senators to vote for the motion."

Like most of the world, Fatima Payman probably realises that there is no viable "two-state solution". Never has been.
Israeli Zionists want to be the Master Race of the region. That's the problem.
As Miko Peled observed, Israel and Palestine are the same place. He believes that Jews and Arabs can live together peacefully. That may be true, but by all appearances, it's true of probably less than 20% of the population. The remaining 80% would need to be homed elsewhere.
Palestine is sacred to more than Judaism and Islam. Ideally, I'd like to see it established as World Heritage. Protected by the world at large and thus needing no armed forces. I can dream, can't I?
What of the other 80%? Netanyahu advocates a state in Sinai for Palestinians, so let's make that two states. I think of them as sanatoria. Unarmed and heavily guarded, to protect them from each other and the world from them.
