What I support is something along the lines of DavidB's suggestion, of both people continuing to live in the land in a "one-state" solution, but of being mostly self-governing and the "unitary" federal state existing for the purposes of things that a single state must do (such as foreign affairs/transportation policy/etc.). However, there are several ways in which I am perhaps further right in this sense than David is, which tilted me to vote for "No, only Israel":
- The exclusion of Gaza from this arrangement, and its becoming a completely separate state.
- The promise of no changes to current immigration policy (that is, only Jews receive a right of return) without support from both communities.
- The banning of political parties that call for the ejection of the other community, including some currently active Israeli parties (like Otzma Yehudit) but most notably Hamas.

So, yeah. Closer to a "one-state solution where Israel continues to exist, includes Judea and Samaria, but with extensive Palestinian autonomy" than the totally unworkable two-state solution. That's what I voted for.
