A separate state for Palestinians is not "apartheid" anymore than building Israel fromt he deserts was "apartheid". They deserve a homeland as much as any people, do they not?

At least, they certainly deserve the right to choose their own form and kind of organization and government.

I am pretty sure that neither Israelis not Palestinians are much interested in being governed by the other. I am also pretty sure that trying to evolve a coherent government which blends the two is much less likely, would take much longer, and would be much more difficult than creating a Palestinian state. It might be better in the long run, but making it work would be a pure bear.
