Now that I think about it, one of the problems with a fully democratic 1 state solution is that Israel wouldn't be majority Jewish anymore.

However, what about this? Gaza becomes independent (or joins Egypt) but the West Bank becomes part of Israel.

This would mean the following approximate demographics if my math isn't wrong

Israeli Jews: 6.6 million
Israeli non Jews: 2.3 million

West Bank Jews: 0.8 million
West Bank non Jews: 2.7 million

Total Jews: 7.4 million
Total non Jews: 5 million

So still a sizable majority of Jews (roughly 60-40). I might be doing the math wrong though.

Still think 2 states are probably the best solution though (or technically 3, I'd say Gaza should either be independent or join Egypt, non contiguous countries aren't good unless they are archipielagos IMO)
