A "fight to the death" ends when one party gets killed, or both do. It is of course possible that the conflict in the Holy Land will end up that way, and I admitted that that is quite possible. In 100 years all the Israelis, or all the Palestinians may be dead or fled, or the whole area might be a radioactive desert.

But I think it's more useful to try to imagine ways in which this kind of "solution" might have been avoided.
