I mean all this "two state solution" and recognition of a (highly conditional) Palestinian "State" is purely symbolic virtue signalling. What is left of these "Palestinian Territories" that could even constitute a state? Like a number of enclaves and gaza?
No. The only realistic solution is a one state solution. Right of return, equal rights, secularity; this is the bare minimum for a peaceful resolution. There is no need for the removal of all the current occupiers, I assume most would flee with their tails between their legs, much like in South Africa. Though unlike south Africa, genuine and tangible reparations should be a part of this as well. It's not as though pulling the knife out stops the bleeding. South Africa dismantled apartheid, but kept the established ruling class of white settlers.
Ideally, a socialist state would be best, but the above would be a bare minimum for any world leader genuinely seeking a long-lasting piece. Although obviously, most US-aligned governments are not in any genuine capacity seeking any such long lasting piece. They just want to virtue signal because supporting genocide is a PR disaster.
These are not real governments, some of these are hardly even real countries. Made up island statelets with a population of 50 somehow having a vote of equal strength to that of Brazil has always made the UN a ridiculous institution.

PNG is essentially not really a state but like 5 guys in port moresby under the control of Rio Tinto and Australia. The rest of the country lacks even basic infrastructure. The pacific islands can be like bought with a few millions $$$ and most colonial structures are still in place - tonga is majority mormon for example.
