Lots have been said and written about the Israel-Palestinian conflict and this article is no different in that respect, but I also have a concrete proposal for a solution which I think will make lasting peace in the region. In my humble opinion it's necessary to separate israelis and palestinians physically in a lasting way, and impossible to do so within Israel. In other words, the palestinians need their own country outside Israel.
It is time to stop just talking and begin acting. I refer to the map below and without further ado I will present my proposal in short form.
1. All hostile operations from both parties will stop and talks about a peace treaty will begin.
2. Egypt will give the palestinians the Northern Sinai Governorate (blue borders) as their new Palestine land.
3. The Palestinians will cease all claims on the Gaza Strip, East Jerusalem and other parts of the West Bank area.
4. Jordan will give the West Bank area (green borders) to Israel.
5. Israel will build and operate a train line from the new Palestine to East Jerusalem, for pilgrims to visit the ancient Mosque.
6. Israel, with the help of the world, will finance the building of 100,000 new housing units each year for the palestinians in the new Palestine, for a period of ten years.
7. Israel will finance and arrange for the palestinians to move from Israel to Palestine, as the housing there are ready to move into. After a period of ten years all palestinians will have left Israel.
8. Israel will recognize the new Palestine as a sovereign state with the right to exist, with its new borders.
9. The new Palestine will recognize Israel as a sovereign state with the right to exist, with its new borders.
10. The arab world will recognize the new Palestine and Israel as soveregn states with the right to exist, with their new borders.
11. The United Nations and the world at large will recognize the new Palestine and the new borders of Israel.
12. The parties involved will sign a peace treaty.
