I think this conference should've happened 10 years ago when things appeared to move forward, and a Palestinian state could've been possible.

At best the conference will declare the parameters for a viable Palestinian state which then can be used to show that it's not going to happen. Apartheid is an Israeli national strategy, and any measures that would make things better for Palestinians won't be permitted. That the Paris summit is taking place at all is a clear indication that the world has invested a lot of political capital in the two-state solution, and it's not pleased to see Israel killing it.
