The fact that Netanyahu wants to annex the West Bank could spell disaster for Israel and the Palestinians alike. Had the United Nations Security Council, the United States, the International Community, and the leaders of Israel and the Arab countries enforced the two-state solution immediately follow the 1967 Six Day War (i. e. the Jewish sovereign nation-state of Israel and the nascent Palestinian sovereign nation-state alongside Israel that was comprised of West Bank, Gaza Strip and East Jerusalem), forced Israel to give the now-occupied territories to the Palestinians and not allowed Israel to build settlements on those lands, things would be way different.

There would be two independent sovereign nation-states (i. e. the Jewish State of Israel, and the State of Palestine at peace right alongside one another, with Jerusalem as a shared Capitol between the two states (i. e. Jewish West Jerusalem as the Capitol of Israel and Arab East Jerusalem as the Capitol of Palestine.
