It is important to note that the military/paramilitary conflict is between Israelis and Palestinians, not Jews and Palestinians since the Israeli Army contains more than just Jews. Israelis and Palestinians are still fighting because neither group has achieved their objective. The Israeli objective is to have a dominant state in the region, living in peace with its neighbors, and with borders that are secure. The Palestinian objective is to have an independent government, international relations, and freedom of movement for its inhabitants. Unfortunately, both of these objectives are greatly expanded by fanatics on both sides who see the only possible implementation of these ideals being one in which the other party cannot exist or exists in such a weakened and defeated state that there can be no real peace. This is why the conflict continues. To see the causes and desires fueling the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict in more detail, see the related question.
The areas of conflict between the Israelis and Palestinians are the entire former Mandate of British Palestine which includes Israel, the West Bank, and the Gaza Strip.

The Declaration of Principles, signed in 1993, aimed to establish a framework for peace between Israelis and Palestinians, including limited self-governance for Palestinians in parts of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. For Palestinians living in Gaza, it represented a significant political opportunity, as it led to the establishment of the Palestinian Authority and increased autonomy. However, it also brought challenges, including ongoing conflict, economic difficulties, and internal divisions. The hopes for lasting peace remained unfulfilled, leading to disillusionment among many Palestinians.
Currently, the Palestinians are not united. The leader of Fatah in the West Bank is Mahmood Abbas. The leader of Hamas in the Gaza Strip is Ismail Haniyeh.
