yes you are right. people around the globe protested war in Syria and it stopped . they also condemned war in Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya and now these three countries are peaceful and economically developed.

people around the globe have been condemning war by Israel in Palestine for, wait a second, a half century i guess and that has made the jews realize their mistake and they are receding now and we have long lasting peace. Hurrah!

Negotiations inch forward but then an unpleasant incident occurs (which also flames our ummah-love for a few days) and everything is back to square one.

Palestinians are in a wretched state and will accept any solution that affords them life with a little dignity, but the main opposition seems to come from the conservative factions in Israel (compare with the conservative factions in Indo-Pak who thrive on the issue of Kashmir). So while the solution seems to be there, the actual question is how to realize it. Of course that cannot be done through violence (our favorite method if we are in power) and negotiations have to proceed. May be the recent events will impress upon everyone the urgency of the matter but you never know. The whole thing can be pretty confusing.
Is it the first time a two nation solution has been proposed?
Is Israel really interested in two countries? If it was then why the war in the first place?

Is violence our favorite method or theirs? who began the problem in the first place and how did it begin? they are in power and they are using it and we are begging them to come to the dialogue table.

Is Zionism a religious movement or a reasonable one? In some churches it is taught to christians that jews are your brothers and you got to help them in whatever way possible.

but it is for us that being religious is a stigma. it isn't 'cool' anymore to be religious right?

If something never happened in the past does it mean it will never happen in the future either? were Pakistan and Israel a result of a full dress rehearsal in the 10th century B.C.?
