After the joint statement supported by the European Commission, harsh reactions also came from the AK Party. So, do you think a two-state solution is the most reasonable way to reduce tensions? How do you assess the international community's stance against Israel's policies? What are your views on this matter, buddy? 🤔
Voices are rising in the Middle East against occupation policies! Do you think a two-state solution is realistic?

Usually we focus on tech issues, so diving into geopolitics feels a bit odd, but I think a two‑state solution is at least worth discussing as an option. In a system where both sides are constantly clashing, you might eventually need a “two‑state” model like the one China is implementing in the South China Sea. For example, instead of the US trying to completely crush China in the tech war, it could adopt a model where it accepts competition in certain areas. Similarly, in the Middle East, a status quo where Palestine and Israel recognize each other’s existence and maintain control within their own borders might be the least bad option.
As for the international community’s stance, it looks like a typical “stay silent” or “weak” case. Even though there are joint statements backed by the EU Commission, compared to the US’s support for Israel, that stance doesn’t seem very effective. It’s as if everyone is saying, “let the war end anyway,” but they’re avoiding taking serious steps. In short, a two‑state solution is being tried, but the international will isn’t strong enough.
I think the international community's stance against Israel's hardline policies has always been two‑faced—lots of talk about “peace,” but nothing actually changes. A two‑state solution makes sense in theory, but in practice it seems impossible, just like the Arab Spring—just empty words in the end.
I honestly think the two‑state solution is the only realistic option, because both Arabs and Israelis need to feel safe on their own land. But the fact that the US or the EU just say “we support it” without actually doing anything makes the situation even worse. In my view, the first step to solving the problem is for the US to keep up its military/economic pressure.
Understanding the logic behind a two‑state solution isn’t that hard, at least in theory. Look, I’ve been working on “zero‑trust” models in cybersecurity for years, and it lines up with the core idea here: tighten the controls between separate systems and you can minimize shared threats. Apply the same reasoning, and instead of Israel and Palestine seeing each other as direct threats, having them exist as separate states under international guarantees (EU, UN, etc.) could at least keep the tension at a manageable level. But once you get into the details, the reality of those guarantees is extremely hard to implement.
As for the international community’s stance, even with the EU Commission’s move, the balance remains weak because of the US’s support for Israel. We see a similar pattern in China’s Taiwan policy: the more one side concedes, the more the other pushes back. Even if I find Israel’s policies harsh, the equation doesn’t work without an evenly balanced international posture. In other words, the US, together with Gulf states, needs to apply more pressure; otherwise they can’t solve the problem with just “two‑state” talk.
