The issues in the conflict are longstanding. It seems next to impossible for either side, especially on the extreme, to even imagine a way that the conflict can be resolved. For the people of the region, it is one that must be addressed and one that the whole world watches.
Benny Elon's 'Israel Initiative' for peace is the most just realistic plan I am aware of.
No one indigenous, that still understands and loves the land, wants it divided in two again. Those who wittingly do can be likened to the imposter in King Solomon's judgement.
Having lived in the region for the past 28 years and experienced the embedded animosity on both sides, I believe the most effective way out is for the creation and recognition of two separate and fully independent countries.
whatever grassroot initiative is on the road, it cannot fully succeed as on a political level deadlocks remain strong in the UN security council.
One Federal-democrat country includes all residents (Jews, Muslims, Christians) and the refugees who are living out of the country.
This is not a scholarly question. You will get as many answers as there are political and religious attitides, sympathies and preferences, but not a scholalrly (i.e. logically verifiable) answer.
I think that, if remotely possible, the Palestinians should transcend their need to reassert the past and turn their thoughts towards growing the wealth and economy of Palestine, making it economically acceptable. In the end war is not good for anyone, and enough have died.
Success coming to Palestine may affect the temperament of Israel, and, if possible encourage trade and sensible relationships until the two parts can function as equals. In time, negotiations can occur on that basis until a mutual solution, if ever possible, is reached.
Il faut rendre à Cesar ce qui lui appartient, une mission très difficile voire impossible !
I am working on the conflict so i will make my recommendation from my findings. i need to be objective and scientific in my response
we can introduce some facts: the population in this land is divided 50% Palestinians and 50% Israeli. the question here is what Israeli leadership want and what Palestinian leadership can accept. The Israeli political elite said what they want last week in the nationality law; Israel for Jews, language is Hebrew, others are not allowed to be first class citizens. in this law, Israel includes West Bank and Jerusalem.
For Palestinians, they accept in two state solution on 1967 borders, it means Palestinian non- militarized state in West Bank and Gaza. Also, Palestinians accept one state -two nations solution. but it seems all suggestions will not end the Israeli colonial project as it relies on ideological ground.
I reckon this is not the forum to discuss religion or politics; and as researchers, we can do little to contribute to the solution of the issue.
when all external parties evacuate the place and let the both parties resolve the issue peacefully. don't make it religious war as it's purely land dispute in my opinion
Update on 2018 Genesis Prize to Natalie Portman, who donated the award funds to "philanthropic programs focused on women's equality, education, economic advancement, health, and political participation."
"On January 27, 2020, the Genesis Prize Foundation, the Israeli Prime Minister's Office, and the Jewish Agency for Israel issued a joint statement that the Prime Minister and the Prime Minister's Office would no longer be part of the administration of the prize."

The Palestinian-Israeli conflict is not primarily a religious conflict, but a nationalist one.
First, ask the question: "Is it possible to become one nation?" Or "How can we become Israelestine?" Explore the challenges restraining the idea and investigate on the positive/driving forces making the idea to become possible.
