For lasting peace in the Middle East and respect for international law
Dissolving/Transforming
the State of Israel ?
Doc CXIR.001v02
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has existed long before October 7, 2023. As early as 1948, following the Holocaust tragedy, Western countries, through the UN, approved the colonization (the theft) of Palestinian territories by suffering Jews, contributing to the creation of the State of Israel: "Jewish nation-state." This has reinforced an apartheid system against Palestinians, pursuing policies of dispossession, colonization (notably in the West Bank), and systematic violence.
Since its
founding, Israel has constantly violated
international law by massacring, expelling, and killing Palestinians
to seize their lands (Nakba, colonization
of the West Bank, etc.). The ambitions of "Greater
Israel" and the reconstruction of
the Temple have fuelled these violations, with targeted attacks and
assassinations, treating Palestinians as sub-humans.
For 77 years, Palestinians have endured the theft of their lands, with almost total indifference from the Western world, which is partly responsible for the creation of this state. It’s a story of David (poor Palestine) against Goliath (wealthy Israel). Their efforts to draw attention to their suffering, for recognition, the release of Palestinian prisoners, and the end of administrative detention (hostage-taking during the Olympics, etc.), and more recently, the attacks of October 7, 2023, are not the right methods. Violence only breeds more violence. The question is: what alternatives do they have? Facing isolation, they often find themselves alone, even in 2025.
Worldwide, protests are emerging, such as those around the MADDEN boat going to Gaza, demanding an end to "genocide" and war. This is progress, but it’s not enough! It’s time for the international community to acknowledge its mistakes in creating the State of Israel and work to repair this injustice.
One proposal is the
Dissolution/Transformation of the State of Israel
into a single secular, binational, democratic state, non-apartheid, guaranteeing equal rights for all its citizens, regardless of faith or origin. A state that respects international law and ensures peaceful coexistence between Jews and Arabs.
Prussia, perceived as the cradle of German militarism (Nazism), was dissolved by the Control Council on 25/02/1947. With the genocide in Gaza, colonization of the West Bank, etc., some Israelis have become as barbaric as some Germans under Hitler. It’s time to do with Israel what was done with Prussia: dissolve/transform.
The UN has never dissolved a state, but in Israel’s case, its role in creating this state could justify legal action to correct this mistake.
It is urgent to initiate a resolution on this matter at the UN. Although it may upset some, like Netanyahu or the far right, it’s time to listen to this proposal. We must no longer let Israeli politics dictate the global agenda, especially with attacks on Iran.
We can make our voices heard with the hashtag #DissolveIsrael. Some believe a single state is unrealistic, but history shows that reconciliation is possible, even after atrocities: between Germans and French, Irish and English, Rwandans or South Africans.
Both Israelis and Palestinians want the same land for themselves. Why not share it in a single state? A secular, binational state guaranteeing peace and equality for all.
Voices like Rima Hassan’s, along with engaged Palestinians and Israelis involved in initiatives like "Stand Together", hope for such a future—ending the shameful separation walls and building a true state of peace.
To support this vision, use the hashtag #1StateIsPal (one state for Israel and Palestine), ensuring justice and coexistence.
