Agree. It's time for an adult to break up this fight and establish stability.

The UN transitional Palestinian government can work. Much like the post WW2 Japan and Germany. But you need it in place for 20 years to build up that society from scratch. Maybe they can have a democratically elected legislature sooner, but the actual government would need to a UN run for a long time.

Also, Israel should pay for it as war crime reparations.

Plus some heavy peacekeepers forces to smack the Israeli government down if they start acting like dicks again.

The Palestinians had a transitional government since the Oslo Accords in 1993. What are you talking about?

A Marshal plan style government, not an extremist controlled oligarchy.

The Palestinian Authority is secular and has Christians in it. This proves yet again you have no idea what you are talking about. The Palestinian Authority is not Hamas, often it was in direct confrontation with Hamas.
