  • Why would any Palestinian in their right state of mind want a one-state solution?? Clearly, even the Palestinians who are citizens of Israel are subjects of systematic state suppression! The person in this video does not know what he is talking about, he is completely detached from reality! Nonsense!

  • Overall, this video paints an overly simplistic picture of current events. The video has no real point besides the intention behind it, which is his incredibly amateurish self-promotion. He is, to put it bluntly, a Zionist, and in spite of his open recognition of the obvious suffering and problems that the Palestinians are undergoing, he simply slavishly and uncritically regurgitating basic points without giving any deeper commentary or criticism.

  • Palestinians would want a one-state solution because they'd be the majority. And because the have a right to live on all of their original land, not just the percentage of it that is gaza and the portions of the west bank that aren't illegally settled by Israelis. But if it were one, democratic state, Palestinians would be the majority.

  • This is a typical example of a hardcore zionist. He proclaims openmindedness, but the reality is this: this guy is a hoax and a biggot with only greed and selfishness on his mind. Why can I say this? He was my professor at Stanford, but it is clear that the only way he got the position was because he was hired by another jew. Play the Holocaust-card and you are in the clear...

  • I completely agree with paulallen!

  • Yupp, this guy is a joke!
