The implementation of a two-state solution would involve the establishment of an independent State of Palestine alongside the State of Israel.

  1. The origin of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is rooted in disputes over land and national identity.
  2. Historical debates challenge myths about Israel’s founding, including that Palestine was an empty land and Zionism equates to Judaism.
  3. Key events shaping the conflict include the wars of 1948, 1956, and 1967, and UN resolutions 242 and 338.
  4. The 1967 war particularly altered the landscape, benefiting Israel and leading to ongoing territorial disputes.
  5. The conflict has been compounded by international diplomatic efforts, shifts in public opinion, and varying narratives from both Israeli and Palestinian perspectives.
