It is not hard to imagine a Jewish minority in a Palestinian State. All the better I would think if its opposite was true as well. Whether as Constituencies within a State, or whether each Individual States, the prosperity of each will only be secured when, as people, they are willing to defend each other.

The Cyprus Problem comes to mind (but Cypriots exist; despite the "Greeks" and "Turks" who deny this); so too, Canada and the USA both being BBFs, (which Cyprus aspires to be) have excellent relations between them. Israel, and Palestine may exist too. But as Jews and Arabs, as Individuals and as Persons, perhaps first "they" must recognise and respect their service is to the same God; one hopes that lovingly the way will be found.
