why hasn’t a two state solution worked? 

what’s the single highest leverage thing Israel could do as a state today to solve this for the future?

why do many people (including Israelis) call Gaza an open-air prison, while others say that’s absolutely not the case? 

what’s the point of interpretation here that is so divergent?

Two state solution hasn’t worked for a ton of reasons but main ones might be that West Bank is too strategically/religiously important for Israel to un-occupy w/o guaranteed peace (like we did with Gaza) and Gaza isn’t large enough to be a country (resource-wise).
