Then arbitraily convert everyone to Tarvuism and make the official language of the area Finnish.

I don't think there is a short term solution. The Palestinian hatred for Israel will last generations. Long term I think Israel has much more power to change the situation, because they are a lot more wealthy and a lot more powerful militarily. Its up to them to convince the people that they are a beneficial force in the region.
I think this should be done first with a formal apology, right or wrong does not come into this, its about acknowledging that a lot of pain has been caused and being the bigger man so to speak.
Also Israel must stop encroaching onto Palestinian land, further more they must give back a lot of the land they have taken. This should be accompanied by a large humanitarian aid effort to help the Palestinians rebuild. There will be parts within the Palestinian population who will continue to attack Israel, but the more Israel continues with these humanitarian actions the more of a minority these people will become.

for someone so well informed you seems to be dropping a lot of bad information, the wiki links are to show you that you're off base with much of it

pulling the 30+ israeli settlements out of the west bank is a good start, 20 are sanctioned but the israelis, another 10 or more are illegal, all were noting more than squatters trying to steal more land

Better yet instead of Tarvuism we start a new religion. But for ease of conversion we should use some of the older deities. I'm just going to pick El, Ra and Isis. This way we have a trinity which makes things nice. Now since two of the deities have only two letters we will use only the first two of Isis and combine these to make the country name:
EL-IS-RA, Elisra, doesn't jive,
RA-EL-IS, Raelis, thats too close to Raelianism, we might get a lawsuit!
IS-RA-EL, Israel, dang we already got that.
Yes I have been spending this evening watching Jordan Maxwell. I think in the grand scheme of things there is no solution. It is up to both sides in this conflict to give up their petty territorial pissings and just learn to agree to disagree. Then they have something in common. Well that and their hatred of pork.
Pork is Kosher!

That's how one side sees it, but there is another side you know, and neither is 100% innocent. Really both were present before the creation of Israel - I see it almost as background tensions come to the forefront. If the US was bordered by Saudi Arabia and Iran I'm sure we'd all find some sort of reason to kill eachother.

Israel is NOT motivated by religious interest on this conflict and indeed in ANY of its conflicts in the area! we're just trying to survive in a place surrounded by enemies.
it's been on my mind in the past few months the feeling like i'm growing closer to some internal religion, something new and individual... i always looked at my self as strictly atheist and i think i still am but slowly i'm starting to change my point of view on what exactly religion is which makes me reconsider my stance in general. i had a very strong trip on cannabis a few days ago where i had to deal with these feelings (i'm completely paranoid when it comes to religions) i was thinking that it may actually be a new sort of religion that we should all practice in order to bring us closer and achieve peace in the world.
it's hard to explain but it's not a standard religion i was thinking about, more like a paradigm shift...
it just might do the trick.

Israel might not be motivated by religious interest, but Israel's "enemies" use religion as an excuse/motivation for their actions against Israel.
> pulling the 30+ israeli settlements out of the west bank is a good start
Although I agree with you, Israel pulled everybody out of Gaza and returned it to the Palestinians... look how that turned out... not very peaceful.
My solution to the problem is simple... put ten Israeli kids and ten Palestinian kids in a room and don't let them out until they come up with a peace agreement with the understanding that both sides will have to honor whatever the kids come up with.

I'm largely ignorant of the conflict but I guess I'd side with the Arabs, I mean the Jewish people just immigrated in droves for purely religious reasons, refused to cooperate peacefully with Palestinians and eventually set up a state against the will of all the surrounding nations.
Having said that, from a Western perspective, I really don't care much for the Muslim faith, and I am grateful for any action that will prevent Islam's undisputed goal of world domination, and for Israel's surprise air strike on Saddam's nuclear facilities.
Fuck knows. Just voicing an uninformed opinion.

You should have stopped with the "I'm largely ignorant of the conflict"...
Take a look at http://www.mideastweb.org/briefhistory.htm for a decent account of how things came about...
