There's never going to be peace with the Arabs and the Israelis. If the so called Palistinians ever made peace with Israel they would have to actually construct a functional self sustaining state and this is not going to happen.
Does anyone think that Yassir or his successor wants to start worrying about garbage collection, and putting a whole population to work where there is no industry? These now full time killers are not ever going to change and become fish mongers and road builders.
My suggestion is that the Jews of the world pay the Arabs in Israel to emmigrate. Even if it takes 150,000 dollars each for them to find another country to live in it would be cheap in the long run.
At that rate it would cost 150 billion dollars per million Arabs sent packing. I think it's affordable considering the alternative.
Think again :-(.

Let's say you have a boss who treats you unfairly.
He gives you a $150k raise, but still treats you unfairly.
Are you grateful for the raise, or still upset at him becuse of his treatment?
Odds are you like the raise, but it doesn't make you any happier about dealing with him on a day to day basis.
I believe this is basically how Palastinians think (albiet more strongly even than this).

Wouldn't they then not want to return... to get another $150,000?
Did you slip, fall, and hit your head?
As to the rest of the world taking in the palis .... there are a lot of poor countries who would take a family of five with $750 cash in their collective pockets in a heartbeat .... regardless of their politics.
I think this is true for Arafat and a few of his top leadership and the various other interlopers paid by Iran and Saudi Arabia. However the vast majority of palis would take the cash I bet.
If it's one thing a conservative should remember, it is that when you create income potential as a remedy for any perticular problem, the problem never remedies.
Might I suggest the "War on Poverty" as an exemplar?
Mercy, mercy! That was no snide remark....sense-of-humor: get one!
The US, EC, Russia, Saudi, etc. are supposed to get together this summer and work up a solution. So, here is my solution.
1-Let these concerned nations pool their resources and buy land in several Arab countries.
2-Build complete communities including schools, employment enterprises, job training, etc.
3-For those families transferring to these communities, give them a home, pay all moving expenses, a bonus of $1,000 and a minimum monthly living expense for two years.
4-Make job training and employment mandatory before the two years is up.
5-Many could be employed building these communities and be learning skills with on-job training.
6-Any Arabs in Israel proper could also be given this opportunity.
7-The West Bank (Judea & Samaria) and the Gaza Strip should then be ceded to Israel and recognized by all nations.
The Arabs calling the Temple Mount an Arab Holy place is a total Red Herring and should be recognized for what it is (The Jewish Temple Mount).
I believe enough would avail themselves of this opportunity that the hold-outs would finally go along with it.
These communities could then be held up as an example of what constructive solutions can do.
If they reject this plan this give them what they want... WAR with no holds barred.

I rather surmise that they want continued recognition as an "oppress-ed pipples" to keep the money coming in from their allies, and into Yassir's treasury. Yassir remains in uncontested power as long as the niggling skirmish continues.
All-out war would be the quick solution to the problem, there would be peace, and the PA hacks would have to find real jobs. MTC
