I think a two-state solution for Israel and Palestine is barely feasible and should maybe not be the objective. Theocracies generate discrimination and conflict.
Better would be a single country, with strong protection of racial and religious freedom. Maybe as part of the EU to help guarantee those freedoms. Inspired by Northern Ireland.
This article argues in a vaguely similar direction, speaking of a (con)federation.
