“I will not allow it [a two-state solution]."

Netanyahu's government "doesn't want anything remotely approaching a two-state solution.

"The only thing that Iran and Israel have in common is that neither of them believes in a two-state solution."

"[T]he current conflict is likely to put the last nail in the coffin of the Israeli-Palestinian peace process."

"A two-state solution exists only in theory. In practice, it died long ago."

"The war between Israel and Hamas makes the two-state solution less viable than ever before."

“[W]hat has happened on 7 October has postponed the possibility of the two-state solution."

"The two-state solution remains on the table, if only for the lack of any viable alternative."

"If Israel has the will, or capacity, to relocate 200,000 settlers from the West Bank and Jerusalem, a two-state solution is a viable option."

"If international actors can muster enough political will and capital... they could still bring about [a two-state solution]."

“[The two-state solution] is the only solution – there is no realistic competition.”

These horrific videos expose Hamas's deliberate cruelty and systematic starvation of innocent hostages who were kidnapped from a music festival. The emaciated condition of these young men proves Hamas is using starvation as a weapon of terror while blocking humanitarian aid from reaching those who need it most. Israel must continue military pressure to force Hamas to release all hostages unconditionally.
