What is the solution<\/strong> to Jewish-Arab conflict?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The solution to the Jewish-Arab conflict can be achieved by dividing the land between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea into two separate countries.<\/p>\n

Historically, Jews accepted this idea, while Arabs rejected it. However, there is now support for a two-state solution from the Arab world and Western nations.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Despite this, Israel now seems hesitant to create a sovereign Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza with East Jerusalem as its capital.<\/p>\n

Why is Israel now hesitant to create a sovereign Palestinian state\/against two nation solution?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Fear of Increased Attack:<\/strong> The Israeli-Palestinian conflict involves many stakeholders, but the crucial ones are the Palestinian and Israeli people, with the Israeli public being the key stakeholder.<\/p>\n

Hence, the main question is whether recent Hamas attacks will make Israelis support for a Palestinian state. Some believe this, but others fear that a two-state solution could enable more effective attacks by Palestinians.<\/p>\n

Stance of Hamas:<\/strong> Hamas doesn’t believe in the idea of an Israel nation making, while, Israel fears that peace may result in a single Palestinian state without Israel.<\/p>\n

Radical Israelis Group:<\/strong> The challenge lies with Palestinians to convince Israeli voters that they’d live peacefully with Jews if they had their own state. Because, some radical Israelis have always opposed Palestinians having their own state.<\/p>\n

What can be the way ahead?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Palestinians, living under Israeli occupation, have suffered greatly. So, they’ve resorted to causing harm to make Israelis notice their pain. However, this cycle of violence only makes the Israelis less likely to end the occupation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Further, Hamas’ recent terror attacks have increased Israeli suspicion, leading them to see a sovereign Palestinian state as a threat to Israel’s existence.<\/p>\n

Hence, to achieve their own state, Palestinians must convince Israelis that they will live peacefully alongside.<\/strong> However, this is a tough challenge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
