Abstract

mmediately following the foundation of the state of Israel in 1948, its people were subject to live in a divided land, compromising of a Palestinian Majority of 67 per cent. However, following the creation of the state this number was significantly reduced to a mere 16 per cent by military methods and forced migration. Subsequently, the Palestinian population was reduced from about 950,000 to 150,000. The Palestinians in the Israeli territory were immediately put under martial law. The principle’s “ensure complete equality of social and political rights to all its inhabitants irrespective of religion, race or sex” ", which was announced in the Declaration of the Establishment of the State of Israel, which has never applied to the Palestinian citizens of Israel. The fact that Israel, which has defended itself as the only democracy in the Middle East for decades, had not recognized any rights granted to Palestinian minorities living within the state of Israel. Therefore could Israel be considered a democracy when it neglects fundamental rights to the Palestinian citizens of Israel? A two state solution for Israeli-Palestinian problems has been discussed internationally since its partition, which was adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on 29 November 1947.However, while these discussions are under way, the presence and position of 1.8 million Palestinian Israeli citizens who inhabit the state, compromising roughly 20 percent of Israel’s total population continue to be neglected. Palestinians living in Israel make up 12 percent of the total Palestinian population in the world, and any solution which is ignoring them is not practically viable for either the State of Israel or Palestinian Authorities. This article aims to discuss the issues of Palestinian citizens of Israel who have been ignored in the peace negotiation process, the dilemmas of the two-state solution proposed by the United Nations General Assembly, and furthermore the alternative possibility of the two nation one state solution.
