I really don't know if that is the solution for Israel or not, but one thing is for sure, the solution will be one built over generations (like the Swiss model). It is also a model being used for Bosnia. I don't think that anyone is expecting everything to be peachy from the getgo, but hopefully one day.
Bosnia was part of Yugoslavia. Yugoslavia was recently cut into nine seperate states. I don't see how that's a model for a one-state solution. If anything it just shows that the best solution is often just to put a giant wall between people.
