It's odd to me how one would muse about something like "right to exist" in the first place and then set conditions for said right, like being part of a x-state solution, having the right intents or fufilling conditions for multiethnicity, or not living up to initial ideas. Seems wording like that is not brought up for other states, not even north korea or younger ones. No one would claim Croatia or East Timor doesn't have the right to exist in particular versions. And might values lie as they do, Israel does still exist in its current form and given the surroundings, I too wonder whether statemets like "does not have the right to exist as state which does this and that [aka things they are probably deemed guilty of]" are appropriate under any context.
I am honestly not trying to bring you into this in any way, as you have said you're a grown man who decides what they comment on and how. It consistently amazes me that this statement is made and flies completely under the radar of everyone but me, and now you. My personal opinion is we're only scratching the surface of his true beliefs regarding Israel and every once in a while a little bit more gets shown, and none of it is pretty. I know you disagree, but I think the evidence has been buried in our bickering, as I understand many people tune out once it starts.
