Honest question: what is your ideas for a solution in Palestine/Israel (hexbear.net)

First off, I’m truly asking this in good faith, please be nice but correct me too on anything I saw that’s stupid.

As an anarchism, my ideal solution for Palestine is a no-state solution where people are allowed to move freely, interact freely, and work being done on both sides to heal from the decades of conflict and live in one society.

Now you folks (I love you folks) aren’t all anarchists and I’d love to hear your thoughts. Sometimes I’ll see people saying that all Israelis should just move somewhere else, but I think that’s really dumb. Both sides seem to be operating on the assumption that the other group will leave, which in my opinion is just as racist thinking as saying all the Palestinians should just leave.

So what are the tankie’s (/j) thoughts.

I get having qualms about the prospect of removing settlers, because of course. However I’m going to caution against equating (even couched in “barely better”) colonization and ethnic cleansing with the just (if violent) return of their land to the colonized. If Nazi settlers in Poland or Czechoslovakia kicked residents out of their homes and posted up until the 21st century, would it be barely better than the ethnic cleansers to push them out and take the homes back? Or does that seem a bit unreasonable, even as we understand that both presented scenarios involve violence?
