In my mind there are really only two ways forward:
Option 1:
Arab states and Fatah/Hamas recognize Israel and have full diplomatic ties. Then a Palestinian state is created in West Bank/Gaza or some variant thereof. However they work out the land swaps is between Israel/Fatah/Hamas or whatever.... Don't care about the details. The first point is the key issue.
Option 2:
Full out war, winner takes all.
If they don't want to recognize Israel then they should all just declare outright war, duke it out and have winner take all. No receding back to pre-war borders like in the '48, '67, and '72 wars like Israel had done every time (apart from buffer zone in the Golan).
All of these countries have been standing in the way of any kind of meaningful peace process, so either put up or shut up! If you are conquered then you have to shut the f up. See every single war in the history of mankind as reference.
