Prospects for resolution/peace/justice: which ones are tangible and intangible. Role of us, arab states, other 3rd parties: most states focused on a 2-state model while some like the 1-state model. Gaza separate from the west bank would be the 3-state-model. Green line: geographic highway line that divides israel and palestine as an old armistice line between the two. Capital of israel is contested: international community has not recognized jerusalem as the capital and tel aviv is still recognized as where states put their embassies.
