A Simple, Idealistic Peace Plan: Israel/Palestine

      One generation needs to grow up learning everything that is the opposite of hate. For the period of time needed to achieve this; not less then ten years, there will be a peace treaty and truce between all warring sides. During the time of the treaty, everything that is the opposite of hate, demonizing, incitement and violence will be pursued. Children from the families of even the most militant people will visit and spend time with children from the opposite side. For at least ten years, children from all sides will be raised to be friends.
       Children will be taught there is no place in this world for hatred, supremacy, demonizing, incitement and ethnic cleansing. Children will mix in summer camps, after school programs and elsewhere. Children from Jewish communities will visit children from Arab communities, and vice a versa. Every possible bridge will be built between the children from different ethnicity and backgrounds.
        Both sides will commit to a peaceful negotiated settlement to be made during the last years of the peace treaty. To be determined by Palestinian Arabs and Israelis: two states or a one state solution. If it is a two state solution, this means exactly what it states. Two states does not mean flooding Israel with millions of Palestinian Arabs demanding the right of return. Israeli Jews, most of whom originated from the middle east and North Africa, have only Israel and nowhere else to go. A two state solution does not mean destroying Israel. If it is a one state solution, mutually agreed to by all sides without coercion or violence, then it mean the permanent end of the use of violence and terror to resolve grievances and disagreements. It cannot be the phony acceptance of one person, one vote and democracy while pursuing an Islamic state in which Jews are delegated to second class, inferior status institutionalized under Sharia law.
        When violence, supremacy, hate, demonizing and ethnic cleansing are taken out of the picture, all things become possible.
