The One Democratic State Initiative (often shortened to ODS or ODSI) is a Palestinians political endeavor advocating for One-state solution,[1] and for a singular, secular state called Palestine (region) where every citizen exercises the same rights.[2][3] It runs on donations and relies on volunteers for all of its work.
Beliefs
[edit]The One Democratic State Initiative believes in a state that is:
Democratic, where all citizens are equal in the eye of the state, including its laws, institutions and policies regardless of identity, secular, where freedom of worship would be guaranteed, and one's religion or identity would not be a factor in granting or denying rights to citizens or non-citizens, and just, where the income, poverty and education gaps would be bridged.[4]
Purpose
[edit]The main purpouse of the One Democratic State Initiative is, as stated on their website:
The One Democratic State Initiative is a Palestinian political endeavor that aims at making the central issue "A Jewish state or a democratic state?" (rather than simply solidarity with Palestinians or criticism of Israel without a definite political objective) the core of the Palestinian liberation discourse, a key milestone in the struggle for the decolonization of Palestine.[5]
