I think it's a case of wait and see and hope for the best.

Every day without fighting is a bonus.

Any plan formulated by the Palestinians and Israel would have to contain safeguards which protect both sides and prevent the situation lapsing back into war.

It's likely that any plan is best implemented gradually by degrees over a period of time using mutually agreed milestones which enable the two sides to build up some trust as the situation demands it.

UN monitors are likely to be present for some time to ensure that both sides are keeping to what they agreed.

Given the amount of ill-feeling between the two groups, the lack of trust and the fact that the issue has been going on since 1947, I would expect such a implementation to take 10 to 20 years as there is no quick fix to this problem.The quality of life would improve by every successfully completed milestone.

Hopefully, any child born at the start of the implementation of the agreed plan will live through many happy years of peace.
