The israel-Palestine conflict has a long and troubled history. Israel has struggled to obnetine security in its neighbourood and still needs the support of the us, while the palestinians fight to retain their land and their home. Their displacement in the west bank and gaza and to neighbouring Arabic states as refugees have spurred popular resistance in the Arabic Street, with the potential to design arab government the nakba orth. Are rekindled.
There is an urgent need that hostilities do not resume, hostages and prisoners are returned and the humanitarian cost of conflict is addressed. The us and regional power is including arabs, Egypt, Iran and Turkey would need to provide a supporting hand but trust between israel and palestine would be the key to any of the present. Any enduring solution would need guarantees for peace and stability and regard for sentiments on Eather side, through a process of giving and taking. It may be different for israel to accept the continuance of hamas-red government in gaza. Similarly, it may be impossible for Palestinians and Arab states to accept the permanent displacement of the former from gaza or the west bank.
For the Palestinian authority, a moderate fatah-red ledership, bot in gaza and the west bank, may be the only option. For this, fatah will have to regain the confidence of the people, deliver government on the ground and welcome younger leders, increasing them in exile or in detection.

Israel, Too, would be benefit from durable security and stability through coexistence. On the one hand, the expansion of israeli settlements in palestinian lands have eroded the capacity of the palestinian authority and LED to friction. On the other hand, israel’s model of democracy, economological growth, technological excellence and high standards of living is a magnet for Arab Countries, many of which have noormalized relationships.
In the 21st century, it is necessary to take a fresh look at the problem and seek non-conflict-based solutions. There is a crisis of ledership in the middle East. In some ways, trump seeks to break the cycle of conflict. Only the transition of self-governance in gaza and the west bank, as established in the oslo accounts, towards the realisation of a two-state solution, can break this vicious cycle and pealastine living side. And security.
