But what is a national identity? What is a 'nation state'? I am proud to have a multi-faced identity that changes from situation to situation, and I defy anyone who says I must be pinned down to one.
The idea of a boycott is certainly one to consider. Boycotts have a long history of effectiveness. One can perhaps argue that an indiscriminate boycott might be a bad move, but a targeted one - in particular on military products/technology, could be very effective indeed.
The 'two state solution' is at a dead end. The Holy Land is essentially indivisible, culturally and historically, so a real solution requires everyone to let go of their incompatible 'national identity' dogmas and embrace something new.

It's possible to argue anything if you are conveniently selective with the evidence you analyze.
