Yeah.

Yeah.

No, I agree with you. And I say in the book that right now it's much easier to imagine one of the disastrous outcomes of the conflict than a better outcome, the disastrous outcome being expulsion or massacre. What I come to in the end is saying that if your goal is to undo the past, then you have guaranteed perpetual conflict.

The reason conflicts come to an end is when the parties to the conflict agree to stop trying to undo the past and say a peaceful future is better. We will give up what we most want in order to have peace now, right? Which in your view is? A two-state solution. I mean, I think that that's an answer that has little credibility whatsoever.

right now because no one actually involved in the conflict is for it. It's the solution that I think is the only one that I can imagine happening in a morally supportable way. Any other solution is going to involve great violence and suffering. Including a binational state? I think a binational state would almost immediately turn into the kind of situation you have in Lebanon, in Syria, in Iraq.

Yugoslavia. You know, binational states don't work. The first thing that happened after the fall of communism was all the binational states in Eastern Europe broke up. Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia. You might think the Czechs and the Slovaks should be able to get along, right? But no, they want their own countries.

I think it's very unrealistic to say these groups of people who have hated each other for such a long time and inflicted so much damage on each other when living under separate regimes are now going to live together in peace under the same regime. That's simply not a realistic option. And I think that as a Jew, it's very important for the Jewish people for there to be a Jewish state.

I think it's necessary. It remains true today as it was true in the early days of Zionism. Because I think that otherwise Jews would be completely powerless. And we've seen in the 20th century what the cost of being completely powerless is. It means that when you're persecuted, you have nowhere to go. No one will take you in.
