The obstacle that has prevented peace between Israel and the Palestinians is the
Palestinians' absolute refusal to accept Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state ...
a refusal that pre-dates any other factor that might be added in this space as an
alternative response to the question.

One has been a demand of the "right of return" for Arab refugees who fled Israel in 1948. They left (and their leaders at the time URGED them to leave) on the promise that Israel would be quickly destroyed and that they could come back. It didn't work out that way.
The conflict between Israel and the Palestinians destabilizes the region and results in increased militarization among nations.

Palestinians come from Palestine.The Palestinians originated from the ancient country of Palestine. Palestine is located in modern-day Israel, the geographical region between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River. Basically, it is the Muslim counterpart of the Jewish Israel.
I am pretty sure it is Jerusalem
The Israel military occupation of the West Bank.
93% of Palestinians are Muslim, and 6% of Palestinians are Christian. Muslim and Christianity are the main religions in Israel.
The state if Israel - the Israelis.
the awnser for this questionYes, no one should be banned from returning to something that was once theirs Another Answer:The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is very complicated. There are Palestinians who live in Israel as Israeli citizens.Israel never forced the Palestinians to leave Israel. The neighboring Arab countries warned the Palestinians that Israel was going to be attacked. The Palestinians believed that Israel would be destroyed and they would simply return home. Well, that did not work. Israel was not destroyed. Many Jews were under attack in the Arab countries they lived in, so they fled to Israel where they were taken in. The Arab countries in return did not take in the Palestinians that they instructed to leave.Israel is a democracy, in Israel there are Palestinians who have equal rights. Israel is worried about its safety and therefor is not planning on allowing the Palestinians, who willingly left, return. The Palestinians are taken advantage of by their corrupt leaders and other countries. They are used being used. The Palestinians blame Israel for their misfortune and thus dislike Israel. Because of this, Israel is not willing to freely allow them into the country.There is an additional demographic reason too, beyond the fact that Jewish people have moved to Israel in a kind of a 'swap'; since the great-grandparents / grandparents / etc of the current generation of Palestinians left Israel, the number of descendants of those original Palestinians has increased beyond the remotest possibility of Israel's capacity to safely re-accommodate them.
Many do, but the majority do not.
