Conflict between groups of rich people are less common than between poor people or poor vs rich people.

My examples are europe, that was at constant war until most countries reached a high living standard. Even with Israel, many countries that were at war with it have stopped since they became richer.

So my solution is making everyone in palestine rich (israel is already rich enough), and I'm pretty sure that the conflict will start to disappear.

If you also remove religion from the region, both Islam and Judaism, and the support for atheism increase will be one less irrational conflict drive and one less differentiating fact between the two groups.

If you look at it invasion to a rich country is far less common than invasion to a poor country. So I think is something that may work.

Not only for Israel Palestine. Is a solution for most armed conflicts I think. Let's make the word rich so there's no economical differences between countries, and everyone will have a high standard of living and let's see if conflict get reduced.
