The first Palestinian Arab State was declared in 1988 and realized in 1993 both by Yasser Arafat. (In 1993, he signed the Oslo Accords with the US President Clinton and the Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, which allowed for the partial autonomy of Palestinian communities in the Palestinian Territories.

Where would the proposal to divide Palestine into Jewish and Palestinian states have placed Jerusalem?
Jerusalem would have been a "corpus separatum" completely outside of Israeli and Palestinian jurisdiction and under an internationally led governance. However, after ten years, there would have been a referendum in Jerusalem as to whether it would like to maintain that status quo or join with the Israeli or Palestinian State. Given that it was surrounded on all four sides by the Palestinian State, it seemed likely that Jerusalem would eventually become part of the Palestinian State through this vote.

Palestinian Arabs have different opinions on this matter. While 54.8% of Palestinian Arabs living in Judea and Samaria say they support the two- state solution, Arabs in Gaza are fiercely opposed to it. An acting Chairman of the PA Legislative Council and Hamas member Ahmad Bahar warned that accepting a Jewish state was tantamount to betrayal and a crime. "Someone who accepts the Jewishness of the state [of Israel] betrays Allah, his messenger and believers. The significance of the Jewishness of the state is that the Palestinians don't exist. …it means recognizing Jewish existence in the land of Palestine," he said. "Even recognition of two states is a crime against the Palestinian cause. The state that the Jews want is a state in which we will be servants, messengers, of the Jews. And one who accepts this is betraying Allah, his messenger, and [Muslim] believers. We will not accept and not recognize a state for the Jews here on Palestinian land! We will not recognize it!
