reunited all of Palestine?

Well, Israel is a small country. A united Palestine/Isreal would be a regional economic force in it's own right.

OTOH, the Jews have been persecuted throughout history for various reasons, they would have to have some very special guarantees to enter into such a deal. The Jewish race have a history of business and trading, if it were possible to integrate Palestine & Israel, it could be economically prosperous for the whole region. No doubt there would be some initial trouble with Syria, Egypt, Iran, Iraq but some assassinations could sort that out. Maybe a few concentration camps for political extremists -g-

How about a Middle East British style political system? A Jordanian Monarchy, with two houses of Parliament. Upper house of "Lords" with wealthy successful business people, older politicians etc, then a lower house with Isreali and Palestinian parties deciding on the mutual progress of the region? Beats spending time and energy killing one and another. It must get terribly boring just fighting a low level war the whole time. Suspect at least 60% of those in the region want a sustained peace.
