I thought of something else...Those settlements are an obvious problem. I know land is scarce, but they are being used as human shields, and some, not all, are fanning the flames. I think all settlements in the occupied terrorities, and whatever land will most likely in the future be in the state of Palestine should be essentially no-man's (woman's) land and should be turned into heavily secured areas that can be used as parks or orchards or vegetable plots...and playgrounds for the children...From a military point of view it is much more easy to defend etc...and rather than raising ire they could be raising cash crops or whatever...both sides perhaps..
