1. During the brutual Ottaman Empire rule, arabs and jews shared the land of Palestine for centuries. Both has equal rights to the land.
2. Thus, it is only as natural as Solomon's judgement - a divine personnage of whom both arabs and jews were taught to respect, - to divide up the land.
Fortunately, the land is not a human being, but a space capable of providing for both human ethnic groups to live in peace.
3. Israel had long supported peace, as it had proven no animosity or conquest upon other nations whom had signed peace treaty and recognized its right to existance. However, it had NEVER hesistated to fight back and defend Israel and its innocent people if harm comes from ANY quarter, just as any other human would have done.
4. The current Caliph (President) of the yet to be recognized state Palestine - Abbas, too, sought for peace and an end to violence, as taught by the prophet Muhammad.
Unfortunately for the Caliph, Hamas which had been contaminated by the persian supreme apostate Khamenei to sacrifice innocent palestinian as human shields to continue to kill jews, NOT for the state of palestine, BUT to ensure ALL sunni muslims are distracted from the 1200+ plus years sunni-shia conflict and leave Persia alone to develope religious, wealth and nuclear supremacy.
Hamas had vowed that the jews be pushed into the sea, for decades, and that is something Israel will NEVER condone. Today, Hamas had woken up from its persian manipulation and sought for their own partitioned land, BUT still not an end to the conflict, as missiles continue to fly into Israel terrority, which does little to assure Israel that the state of Palestine can be trusted, and that the Caliph Abbas has NO control or ability to control Hamas.
5. All that the Caliph Abbas want for peace is that the settlements built upon the supposed palestine land abandoned by the arabs in 1967 be left to the returned Palestinians and should not be occupied by Israel.
The Caliph Abbas had proven his ability and commitment to peace, as the west bank had largely been stable and had not fought with Israel, except for the Hamas controlled Gaza strip.
Trust and respect have to be won and never freely given. Israel needs those settlements as they are corridors to jewish and christian holy cities, which even today, had seen arabs stoning and creating trouble with visitors using that corridor to those sites.
6. Words and even treaties are meaningless. Only actions can prove committments to peace.
The solution lays in Israel paying 'rent' for the corridor instead, and Caliph Abbas honor that contract which will last for 100 years' lease.
A reasonable amount, not extortionate, can be worked out. Money can always be earned, but human lives and its security is priceless, for no dollar can bring back the dead.
Leased lands is not occupied or seized or even given away terroritory. It is only a contract. And within a hundred years of learning and living in peace, there will be no need for any security corridor as none side would want to relive the barbaric ignorant 'jahiliyyah' and tribal 'istighna' arrogant times of today that had only cost the lives of so many innocent palestinian and jewish men, women and children for decades.
