What about a peace plan where Israel and Palestine are 2 independent states with their own government but Palestinians can come in and out, live, settle and work in Israel freely and Israelis can come in and out live, settle and work in Palestine freely. If Australians and New Zealanders can live and settle in each others countries freely what about Israel and Palestine? Would such a peace plan work for Israel and Palestine?

As long as Palestinians aren't allowed to vote in Israel. Israel is a Jewish state. If it is overrun with Arabs, it will cease to exist as one.

Yeah, well...New Zealand isn't really chocked full of extremist, militant suicide bombers, is it?

No. All good hearted stuff bud, i'd love to see it happen but the palestinians won't accept peace until they have some of their land back and Israel won't accept peace until they've taken the whole lot. Imo they should have one country called Israel/Palestine where everyone is a citizen and has the same rights as each other. Hope it happens soon, can't see it though.

No. Not for either of them. Palestine does not like Israel because of the idea that the Israeli's stole their land, and would not accept any solution that allowed Israeli's to move freely about any land that they retained (you'd be lucky to get them to agree to a split state in the first place) Israel doesn't like Palestine because they believe that the land belongs to them, and they have a fear that if they allowed the Palestinians to move freely about Israel, they would be such a significant voting population that they could attain political power and undermine the concept of a Jewish Homeland that Israel was founded on.

Well good luck with that ! they are like the old hatfield and mcCoys story been fighting so long don't even know what they are fighting about ! Just know they got to keep fighting !

Eventually yes this will be a part of it as unimaginable as it seems today. The most shocking thing for people to realize is that a future Palestian state will need tourism to survive on its own. The tourists will be Christians, again unimaginable today.

I like it. It would work.

Of course not. It's already been offered and rejected - by the "Palestinians." They keep SAYING they are committed to the destruction of Israel and since they're also ACTING like they are, why don't people believe them? If Palestinians can come in and out, live, settle and work in Israel freely, Isralel is 100% guranteed to cease to exist. Are you suggesting the most important thing to Australians is killing New Zealanders or the other way around? If neither, your comparison doesn't make even a little bit of sense. Anyway, your plan has an easily spotted FUNDAMENTAL flaw, even to someone (if such people exist) who doesn't know who/what/where Israel/Palestine is. Every war in all of human history falls into one of TWO categories: a) Still ongoing today. b) Somebody WON and the other side lost. There has never been an exception. Therefore we know there cannot be "Israel-Palestine peace" until a faction is defeated. Someone has to win. This means destruction of the "Palestinians'" ability to make trouble or the destruction of Israel. There isn't another way.

Your forgetting that Australia and New Zealand have more in common than Israel and Palestine. The two are closer to India and Pakistan. There are flaws in your plan. First, most Israelis, after Hamas firing rockets into Israel and the Intifada, don't trust the Palestinians that much. Second, your assuming that Israelis want to go into Palestinian West Bank towns and work and live, or that the Palestinians will allow it to happen. And forget about Gaza, when Hamas can't treat its own Palestinian Christian population correctly, all 2000 out of 1.1 Million Gazans in the strip.
