The controversy of Palestine vs. Israel has gone on for decades. For half a century, Israel and Palestine have been in countless wars, with both sides terrorizing one another frequently. But, why can't there be a solution to the problem? Why can't we plan out a two state solution for Israel and Palestine to coexist peacefully? I think there can be. Many people are pessimistic about the whole scenario and think that this is close to impossible with all of the injustices done by both sides, but both sides would most likely support peace. The Jews were granted Israel after world war 2 by France and Great Britain because of the Holocaust and their search for a Jewish homeland was finally successful. And even though Israel is only roughly the size of New Jersey it is a greatly appreciated sentiment and honorable gesture from the nations that helped free many of the Jewish people from the concentration camps.
