How would you get some equivalent of reconstruction (the term as in US history) in order? Even with 10 years of radical reconstruction and sending the big-ass federal army into states to tightly enforce the rights of black people, they still got Jim Crow'd over with all kinds of abuse. Even with the 60s Civil Rights acts they're still substantially disadvantaged and discriminated against today. This'd be even worse in Palestine's rubble. Wealth is power, and if you just simply have a one-state solution, the rich will quickly eat the poor. On what basis can you make a reconstruction, since Israel has already resisted global "resolutions" (security council or not) time after time, and Palestine doesn't seem to have a chance at scoring the victory the Union based its reconstruction authority on?
