If the UN decided to give away Calgary to the Native Americans, I'd probably be pretty ****ed and fight over it initially, but you'd think after 60+ years they might just decide to settle somewhere else and move on. Especially when it is pretty damned clear that you attempts to get Israel back are pretty damned futile.
I just think what is done, is done and it is time to move on.

My solution? Give the Palestinians a homeland as well. Split Israel in two and give half to the Palestinians. Hey, it worked for Solomon.
Frankly, I think this is the only solution. Both are making claim to the turf, so split it up, negotiate settlements across the board, make it binding, and let the healing begin. A settlement needs to be enforced on BOTH parties, and done so by the international community. The international community created this mess, they have to clean it up. They need to arbitrate the settlement and then make the two sides live by it. The international community needs to police it afterwards and treat both sides equally. That is the solution.
