The Chinese method only works because Han Chinese are the majority population in China by a large margin. If, instead, Han were a minority, and Uyghurs were the majority, the policy simply would not work. Historically, rule by an ethnic minority can only be sustained via 1) adaptation to the majority's culture & identity 2) persistent repression or 3) a combination of both. The Manchu rule of China is a great example of minority rule in a historical context, where they blended with the majority population, adopting aspects of Chinese language, culture, government forms, etc., and managed to successfully suppress Han restoration sentiments for hundreds of years. Yet, they were still overthrown in the end.
If Israelis wanted to create a one-state solution, they'd need to 1) present themselves as patrons of Islam and 2) live with the fact that Muslims may end up eventually taking over, any way. Current Israeli leaders cannot accept either of these conditions, and so they refuse to become a "ruling minority," choosing instead to do whatever it takes to remain the demographic majority while still securing the borders of the state. That inevitably results in zero sum conflict with the Palestinians.
