Isratin

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Isratin ( Arabic إسراطين, DMG Isrāṭīn ; Hebrew יִשְׂרָטִין Yisrāṭīn ), also circumscribed in Hebrew as a "bi-national state" (מדינה דו-לאומית medina du-le-umīt ), is an artificial word with which a uniform, federal or confederal Israeli-Palestinian state structure is meant that covers the territories of the today's State of Israel , the West Bank and Gaza Strip . Depending on the political point of view, such a scenario is either understood as an untenable situation in which Israel would lose its character as a Jewish nation-state and the Palestinians in their pursuit of international sovereignty within the framework of a two-state solutionwould have failed, or as a desirable and desirable solution to the long-running Middle East conflict through the establishment of a unified state that unites Israelis and Palestinians as an equal nation within its national borders.

For a long time the most prominent proponent of the one-state solution was the Libyan revolutionary leader Muammar al-Gaddafi .

  • Israel and the Palestinian Territories
  • Diplomatic recognition of Israel
  • Diplomatic recognition of Israel, diplomatic relations with Palestine
  • Diplomatic recognition of Israel and Palestine
  • Diplomatic recognition of Palestine, diplomatic relations with Israel
  • Diplomatic recognition of Palestine
  • No diplomatic recognition

    • The scenario of a dissolution of the current state of Israel and a subsequent reconstitution within the boundaries of a binational unitary state that also includes the Palestinian territories under the name "Isratin" is generally rejected by both the Palestinians and the Israelis. On both sides, the criticism is aimed at the fact that an artificially created one-state solution runs counter to the right of both parties to full self-determination under international law.
