Israel liberal

1. Borders

• Palestinians could permanently occupy Gaza Strip and the West Bank
• Holy sites should remain in Israel’s hands
• Jewish people would have Jerusalem, no compromises, will be the eternal capital of the state of Israel.
• There will be compromises of the some villages in Jerusalem for Palestinians

2. Right of Return

- The right of return concerns who has the right to immigrate.

- Most of the Jewish people and their ancestors can immigrate into Israel

- The Jewish and Palestinian people should be able to return if they live in peace with their neighbors.

- People would have their house and buy their own land.

3. the Green Wall

The Labor Party agreed to take part in negotiating joining Prime Minister Ariel Sharon’s coalition government. A coalition government is when small factions or parties come together to form a majority. This means that the Israel Labor Party will meet with other parties to negotiate whether or not the Green Wall separating the West Bank will stay or come down.

4. Settlements

• This is a controversial subject throughout Israel
• If dismantled, relocation money from raising taxes, government
• Everything inside the current barrier belongs to the state of Israel.
• The Separation Barrier determines the boundaries of Jerusalem but also limits harm to Palestine people outside
• The barrier maintains a Jewish majority next to a Palestine minority
• Supports the establishment of Jewish settlements (immigrants) in the Jordan Valley, outside Hebron and in some other parts of the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip

5. Jerusalem

The defense minister Ehud Barak is dragging his feet on the issue partly to firm up support of his security credentials. He is doing this because of his last failure of an effort of a comprehensive peace with Yassir Arraft, the former Palestine leader. He has agreed to let 5,000 Palestinians register to live in the Palestinian territories, but without legal status.

6. Gaza

- Supports the continuation of Jewish settlement on the west Bank in the Gaza Strip.

- Right now the strip is governed by the Palestinian National Authority.

- A move such as Gaza pullout can only be successful when the territory one leaves is handed over to responsible hands and anchored in agreements and international guarantees.

- We need to act to the bombing and not escape.

- The disengagement from Gaza was a bad idea.
