It's ludicrous because it *can't* be addressed. If it were, Israelis would become a minority in Israel overnight, and their homeland could be voted out of existence at the first opportunity.
For Israel, this is an existential issue. It's doubly stupid of the Palestinians to continue to insist on it, not only because Israel quite clearly can't yield on it, but also because that stumbling block allows Israel to continue with things as they are, to occupy the West Bank and to build settlements.
Not having a final settlement suits Israel perfectly well. The Palestinians should try removing Israel's excuses for sticking with the status quo.
