8. At the debate, when asked if he supported Israel, as a Jewish State,

He answered that he supports a Democratic Israel with equal rights for all. Note: this does not actually answer the question, but if speaking of any country other than Israel, it would be a pretty standard answer.

Most secular American Jews, per polling, agree with a two state solution. That would preserve Israel having a Jewish majority. However, the settlement movement is progressively making a two state solution much harder to achieve. If the settlements are included as part of Israel, it leaves a Palestinian state that looks like a piece of Swiss cheese. In addition, since Oct 7, 2023 some MK have spoken of removing Palestinians from Gaza.

If a 2:state solution is made impossible, it makes what Mamdani suggests as perhaps the most palatable solution, although one that Israel itself would likely never chose.
