want. (Both)For TOTAL DESTRUCTION (Hammas)
How are Terrorist slowing down the chance of peace?

History of Palestine
In 7000 BC Jericho became the first place in Palestine where humans built dwellings for themselves and they also built a ten-meter high wall surround the city. So Jericho is considered to be the oldest continuously inhabited city on earth. “<http://www.webgaza.net/background/History_of_Palestine.htm> Gaza | Palestine | History of Palestine/ WebGaza.net Web. 17 Mar. 2011
the region has a long and tumultuous history as a crossroads for religion, culture, commerce, and politics. Human history in the region goes back 500,000 years or more, with civilization reaching the region shortly after the first city-states in Mesopotamia
Since that time the region has been controlled by numerous different peoples, including Ancient Egyptians, Canaanites, Ancient Israelites, Assyrians, Babylonians, Ancient Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, the Sunni Arab Caliphate, the Shia Fatimid Caliphate, Crusaders, Ayyubids Mameluks, Ottomans, the British and modern Israelis

Legal Stuff
Current Leader: Mahmoud Abbas Web. 21 Mar. 2011.

Legal Rights:In Israel there isn't a constitution but a basic set of laws and
usually they don’t apply to Palestine People
Obstacles
They believe that the Israelis took their home and that the only way to solve it would be to use violence and destruction of Israel. Many Palestinians nowadays believe that Israel is not really interested in reaching an arrangement, but rather interested in continuing to control the entire territory from the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan River

Religions in Jerusalem
Three main religions in Jerusalem: Christianity Judaism Islam
Similarities between the religions One God Prophets Angels and Demons Sacred Text
No one is willing to accept other religions, but rather they all claim Jerusalem to be their own rightful land

Problem with Jerusalem
Judaism claims Jerusalem should be theirs because: The site of the ancient and holy Solomon’s Temple Serves as a place to mourn the destruction of Solomon’s Temple It is the only capital of the Jewish state The center of Jewish life for over 3 thousand years ever since it was
conquered by King David God’s giving their Holy Land back to them
Islam claims Jerusalem should be theirs because: Believes it is the place where Mohammed rose to Heaven
Where he got instructions regarding Islam laws
Christianity claims Jerusalem should be theirs because: Location of Jesus Christ’s childhood and adulthood
It’s where he preached and where his resurrection took place One of the first Christian communities was located in Jerusalem

Obstacles SolutionsNo one is willing to
accept other religions

How can the problem be fixed?
Split the country into two states united by one federal government
United States of Israel and PalestineBoth states could limit immigration how they
pleasedVotes for government can count for their
respective countries no matter where they live That way, Jews couldn’t vote for Palestinian
government and vice versaEach contribute 50- 50 to National Parliament
Solution Cont…
Will be split based off of where the most of each group live
Voting will be based off of what state you belong to rather than where you live
United Nations gets control over Jerusalem
This will work because both groups can stay live in the country they claim to be theirs
Both Israel and Palestine will be included in the country’s name
Each group will have to learn respect and accept each other, even if they don’t necessarily agree with the other’s beliefs
