Peace Talks There has been many peace talks after wars to stop terrorism. They have all failed and end up with more problems

Goals for Terrorists To have freedom of religion(Israelis) To have everyone covert to Muslim (Hammas) To have the freedom of living wherever they want. (Both) For TOTAL DESTRUCTION (Hammas)

How are Terrorist slowing down the chance of peace? Terrorists in Israel are getting financial funding from Al-Queda, Hezbullah, and the Taliban. They have too many willing people, and the attacks lead to wars, which slow down Peace talks.

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 8/09/yerushalayim-al-quds-jerusalem- the-christian-quarter/

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 middle-east

Obstacles Solutions No one is willing to accept other religions They all claim Jerusalem to be their own Not willing to share Aren’t Open Minded Jerusalem can be given to the United Nations  Become a Multi- National City City needs a stable sovereign

How can the problem be fixed? Split the country into two states united by one federal government United States of Israel and Palestine Both states could limit immigration how they pleased Votes for government can count for their respective countries no matter where they live  That way, Jews couldn’t vote for Palestinian government and vice versa Each contribute 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
