One-state solution? Really?

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

One of the sources, the The Arts Fuse one, is literally just cited as saying that Yesh Atid is "the centrist liberal-Zionist...Party." Is this really as good as your sources get? Meanwhile, Yair Lapid literally called for a two-state solution back in 2015, saying Israel should support the Arab Peace Initiative^[1] and in a speech to the United Nations in 2022^[2]^[3] and endorsed Egypt's plan for a ceasefire and reconstruction of Gaza after the Gaza war.^[4] When the Knesset voted in late 2024 to reject a Palestinian state, Lapid and the Yesh Atid party walked out of the vote in protest.^[5]^[6]^[7] Are we really going to look at the evidence and just say that Yesh Atid supports a one-state solution? Really?

Regardless of this, views on the one/two state solution are not an ideology – they are a political position. An ideology is a political philosophy. This shouldn't be in the infobox IMO. Number 5 7 20:44, 12 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

In the first paragraph, change "future prime minister" to "former prime minister" Jack9562 (talk) 19:32, 26 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Not done: It says "future" because Lapid founded it before he became prime minister. Day Creature (talk) 19:44, 26 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Remove Yair Lapid described as “future prime minister” in paragraph one. This is speculation.

Change “future prime minister” to “Leader of the Opposition” ~2026-33159-75 (talk) 21:18, 4 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

I see above request. I would still recommend an edit for clarity. ~2026-33159-75 (talk) 21:19, 4 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

I've removed the "future prime minister" wording from the the lede. David O. Johnson (talk) 21:43, 4 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Remove Max Blumenthal (source 12) from the list of sources on this page, as his deprecated status per the reliable sources policy renders him ineligible for use on a page unrelated to his self-description. Mr manor11 (talk) 21:55, 16 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Where is it stated that Blumenthal is not a reliable source? Greyzone is deprecated because it is a personal blog rather than a news website, but I can't see where he himself has been declared an unreliable source (this discussion concluded one of his books was a reliable source. Number 5 7 00:28, 17 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Greyzone is depreciated not just because it is a blog, but because of its noted consistent anti-Western foreign policy stance, often aligning with state narratives from authoritarian governments as per its reliablitiy page.

According to its main article, it has been "widely accused by mainstream journalists and watchdogs of publishing conspiracy theories regarding international conflicts and human rights abuses."

Does this not warrant a review of the reliability of Blumenthal's comments on this Yesh Atid article? Mr manor11 (talk) 00:00, 21 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Not unless there is a WP:RSN concluding he is not a reliable source. Number 5 7 00:28, 21 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Not done: per the above response. Day Creature (talk) 01:58, 17 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
