The rather ignored 2 state solution remains the best possible solution to the I/P crisis.

Hamas emerged in large part because the conflict looked to be headed towards resolution in the late 80s and early 90s. They were founded to ensure that the conflict wouldn’t resolve in a two state solution that recognized Israel as a permanent reality.

Hamas doesn’t draw its strength from the frustrated Palestinians who want a two state solution, but from Palestinians who want no Israel and are frustrated that Israel’s existence only gets more and more entrenched.

It should also be noted that HAMAs formerly adopted a 2 state solution as their main political goal a few years ago.

Ok I was slightly wrong, it isn't a true 2 state solution because they never proposed recognising the state of Israel.

However Hamas has did announce in 2017 that “Hamas considers the establishment of a Palestinian state, sovereign and complete, on the basis of the June 4, 1967, with Jerusalem as its capital and the provision for all the refugees to return to their homeland is an agreeable form that has won a consensus among all the movement members,”
