What do the Palestinians want to do with the land of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip?

A number of Palestinians would like to create an independent Palestinian State on the lands of the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. This aspiration is seen as legitimate by the United Nations, which currently recognizes the early elements of this state as the State of Palestine and previously recognized it as the Palestinian Authority.However, the majority of Palestinians who support the full independence of the State of Palestine do not believe that the territory of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip are sufficient and lay claim to all or part of the current State of Israel as a longer-term ambition.


Why do the Jews think Palestinians shouldn't have their land?

Jews do not think this. Most Israeli Jews support a two-state solution. They just want the Palestinians to recognize Israel's right to exist.

Who are the Palestinians and the Kurds where do they live and what do they have in common?

Palestinians and Kurds have little in common other than their religion -- predominantly Islam."Palestinians" are a national group (like British), whereas Kurds are an ethnic group (like Anglo-Saxon). Palestinians are inhabitants of the Palestinian Territories (the West Bank and the Gaza Strip), and are ethnically predominantly Arab. They mostly speak Arabic, and are generally contrasted with Israelis, citizens of the State of Israel.Kurds are an ethnic group that inhabits a region known as Kurdistan. Kurdistan is not a country, but rather a region that includes contiguous provinces of the countries of Syria, Turkey, Iraq and Iran. The Kurds were notably oppressed (and killed in large numbers) by the government of Saddam Hussein in Iraq, an incident that has been called a genocide. Some Kurdish nationalist groups notably want to create an independent state of Kurdistan, since they feel they have been marginalized by their home governments, especially in Iraq and Turkey.Actually, that is something else Kurds and Palestinians have in common: They feel as though they have been forced into a part of a larger country, part of which should be solely theirs. Palestinians want an internationally-recognized Palestinian state, in addition to (or instead of, depending on who's talking) Israel, and feel oppressed by the Israeli government. Kurds feel that there should be an independent state of Kurdistan, and feel oppressed by the Iranian, Iraqi, Turkish and Syrian governments.


What do Israelis want from the Palestinians?

Peaceful co-existence.


What are the basic arguments each group of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict has regarding resolving the conflict?

The problem with this question is that it assumes monolithic opinions on both sides. This is not the case. As a result, there are numerous views and perceptions that color all sides. Typically, Israeli goals are seen to hold to the maintenance of a Jewish State where Jews control the policy and general direction of the country. Secondly, Israel wants to protect the Jewish rights to access and maintenance of Jewish Holy Sites in all areas of the former British Mandate of Palestine. Finally, Israel wants to have secure and peaceful borders. Typically, Arab goals are seen to hold to the creation of an independent Arab State where Palestinians control the general policy and direction of the country. Arabs also wish, if not for the removal of Israel, for Palestinian refugees to have the Right to Return to Israel. Arabs want unrestricted access to Muslim Holy Sites in all areas of the former British Mandate of Palestine. Finally, the Arabs want East Jerusalem to be the capital of an independent Palestinian State.


What is the main goal of the Palestinians?

The Palestinians are people, just like us. Most of them want peace, but the ones in charge do not. I feel that the Palestinians should not be treated like they are criminals, beacause they most certainly are not.

What are the Palestinians fighting for?

Depends on the Palestinian. Some want the West Bank and Gaza Strip as an independent Palestinian State. The remainder want all of the former British Mandate of Palestine as a Palestinian State.
