    There were few efforts of diplomacy since 2000. Both sides refused to talk. A third party should have been asked for but the Palestinian government decided to invest in missiles instead. At this point Israel should just officially annex Gaza and the Palestinian people will be free to live their lives as Israeli citizens. Plenty of Muslims, Christians, Druze and even Atheists all live together in Israel. They just won’t be able to enforce their draconian religious laws on those who don’t want to follow them due to Israel being a free nation.

        I personally think both the Palestinian and Israeli governments should be dissolved. I believe both sides are completely in the wrong.

      This is known as the one state solution, and it’s Israel (not Palestinians) who don’t want it.

      I think you misunderstand this conflict. Palestinians would love to actually talk and get this whole thing over with, but it’s like the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The belligerent party is the one who decides whether peace talks happen or not. Otherwise it’s just “We want peace, Israel” “No”, which is what the PNA has been doing for the last 20+ years.
