I can only think of one fix for the Israeli/Arabic situation. [View All]

[last1standing]

I would like to see Israel cede all territory gains from all wars since it's inception and go back to it's original size. Instead of turning these areas over to Hezbollah/Palestine/Lebanon/Syria or anyone else, they should become a demilitarized zone policed by the UN. Only authorized UN personnel would be allowed any type of weapons in these areas. Any action taken by either side against the other would be automatically met with punitive action from UN forces only. It's time we finally give up the notion that Israel and its neighbors are going to live peacefully together for some years to come. By stationing a permanent UN force we create a buffer between them all. Of course by having a multinational force on the ground, any attack would likely be seen as an offense to several other, larger, nations.

At the same time well publicized mediation should take place under the auspices of the UN. While these probably wouldn't amount to any real solutions those in talks generally don't attack.

I'm sure many will find this answer simplistic or unworkable so if anyone has another solution I'd love to hear it.
