Discussion:
Try to understand the relationship between Israel and the Palestinians. Any Palestinian state will be deeply dependent on Israel as the Palestinian people are very much a part of the Israeli economy. On the other hand, they would be two separate states. So, to what extent does a resolved situation, that is, peace, make a separate state part of a unified situation?
Briefly Address the below questions:
What is the history (ancient and modern) of this land that explains the current dispute between the Palestinians and Israelis?
What are the challenges facing its resolution?
What recommendations would you offer to advance that outcome?
What do you think will be the outcome of the next peace talks? Why?
