After the excalating violence taking place in Palestinian communities under Israeli controls, it is convinced that the violence will continue unabated destroying life, property, and all hope of peace in the region.

Should the Palestinians be granted a separate state?

I say, Yes. They should be given a separate state.

sadolakced acid, your post made no sense. If you say that they're not a different ethnicity from the Isrealis (which they are) and that they are an atificial group created for politics, then isn't that saying that the Isrealis are also an artificial group created for politics?

I don't think there should be a new Palestinian state. I think they should try and find peace (yes, idealistic and not very likely, but we can hope, can't we?) Jews and Muslims, for this isn't about Isreal and Palestine, it's about the religions, aren't so different.

Actually Palastine had been adopted by Arabs living in the area west of the Jordan Rver. It is specifically employed to avoid the use of the name Israel. Palastine IS considererd a propaganda term with massive anti-Israel implications.

Aha yes i agree, it is all over religion....they are fighting a "Holy war" and they aren't fighting over just any piece of land, it's the so called "Holy-land" mentioned in the Old Testament. So for that fact neither side will ever give in if they believe it is their destined fate to vie for control of that land. This is how religion (or at least how it is interpreted) has ruthlessly encouraged these people to keep fighting.
