I wont pretend to know much about South Africa or Palestine/Israel but my understanding is Palistine/Isreal are separate entities so if you were going to use civil disobedience to overcome the conflict you would have to convince the people of isreal.
That’s like saying that the only way to defeat Nazi Germany is to convince the Germans through civil disobedience, because “Germany and France are separate entities.”
Sorry, I thought you meant what you asked, “What does the destruction of the apartheid state look like” and not the entirely different question, “By what means can the destruction of the apartheid state be achieved?”
The effects of the end of apartheid South Africa are the same that we aim for with the end of Israel. Unfortunately, Israel appears to only understand the language of force, and so that is the most likely means of achieving those ends.
3000 years ago, those knife-eared bastards double-crossed us, and now none of us dwarves would be caught dead associating with any elf.
You digress

Look at South Africa, for an example.
