   Below, the outlines of a workable plan for peace in the middle east:

     A Palestinian state based on the 1967 borders, with minor
     rectifications agreed upon between Palestine and Israel.

     · Palestinians giving up the right of return and Israel
     reciprocating by removing its settlements in the West Bank, again
     with rectifications as mutually agreed. Those displaced on both
     sides would receive compensation from the international community.

     · King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia unambiguously reconfirming his
     2002 pledge that the Arab world is prepared to enter into full
     normal relations with Israel upon its withdrawal from the lands
     occupied in 1967.

     · Egypt and Saudi Arabia working with the Palestinian Authority to
     put together a government along the lines of the 18-point agreement
     reached between Hamas and Fatah prisoners in Israeli jails in June.
     This government would negotiate for the Authority.

     · Deployment, as part of a cease-fire, of a robust international
     force in southern Lebanon.

     · Deployment of another international force to facilitate and
     supervise traffic to and from Gaza and the West Bank.

     · Designation of Jerusalem as the shared capital of Israel and
     Palestine, with appropriate international guarantees of freedom of
     movement and civic life in the city.

   Practical? Just? Discuss.
