An open-source diplomatic proposal to heal Palestine-Israeli relations and end the Ideology of Hate

Comprehensive Peace and Reconciliation Agreement for Israel-Palestine

Our Goal is to reach a solution which would establish an independent Palestinian state alongside Israel.

To begin the peace process in Israel-Palestine, we suggest the following:

  1. Immediate Ceasefire (as voted by the UN's non-binding resolution)

  2. Palestinian statehood granted under authority of the Palestinian Authority.

  3. Demilitarization of Palestine.

  4. Hamas agrees to binding resolutions including demilitarization, agrees to end education of hatred and other reforms.

  5. Palestinian Authority agrees to educational materials audit every 2 years and makes it a crime to teach children to hate Jews and advocate for the murder of innocent.

INFORMAL NOTES ON THE SITUATION:

The Palestinian people should've been granted statehood long ago but the far-right in Israel assassinated Yitzhak Rabin -who had a peace deal lined up. This lead to the emergence of Hamas. Israel must take responsibility for this and make an effort to do the right thing.

Israel must END the loss of innocent life. Current reports confirm 2,250 kills of children. This is a violation of international law and constitutes a form of genocide.

Hamas is not excused for it's genocide of the Jewish people. Hamas is guilty of genocide of both Jewish lives and the lives of its own people. Hamas as an organization holds power of its people illegally. No open elections for any office have been held in Gaza since 2006. Hamas must choose to demilitarize immediately. This is the only way forward for Hamas.

i. Reciprocity Initiatives:

This situation is very tricky due to the stated action of Hamas, which is labeled internationally as a terrorist organization. We first need to be able to differentiate between the people of Palestine (whom are more or less capitves of Hamas) and the political leadership organization which compromises Hamas.

Key Questions that need to be posed:

  • How does one delineate between a member of Hamas and an innocent Palestinian?

  • How does one layout a plan to “demilitarize” Hamas?

  • How does one repair the damage of the genocide occurring now which will naturally give birth to more extremism?

Heal.Earth is proposing a set of Reciprocity initiatives for the Israeli government to approach international partners in negotiating with Hamas and the Palestinian Authority. Reciprocity is an practice of exchanging things with others for mutual benefit.

Reciprocity Initiative Proposal:

  • Create a Cease-fire to free Hostages

  • Establish a Humanitarian corridor to evacuate and preserve the life of all women, children and eligible men.

  • Contingent upon the creation of a Palestinian state (see terms proposed below)

    • Grant Palestinian Citizenship into Palestinian state for those who qualify:

      • Proposed Qualifications

        • Citizen must pledge to disaffiliate from Hamas

          • Citizenship includes:

            • Free Mental Healthcare (funded by the government of Israel & international partners)

            • Free medical care

          • Reparations

            • To be determined at a future date

          • Terms for resumption of extremist activities

            • Citizenship can be revoked, etc..

i. Overview of terms:

  • Phased withdrawal of Israeli military from occupied Palestinian territories.

    • Establish a demilitarized zone.

    • Transition to independent status governed by a designated body.

  • Israel's illegal settlements:

    • Immediate moratorium on settlements.

    • Israel will withdraw from the West Bank, retaining 6.3% for major Jewish settlements.

B. Jerusalem:

  • Recognize Jerusalem as the shared capital of Israel.

  • Place the Temple Mount and the entire Old City under a public binding International trusteeship comprising Israel, PA, Jordan, US, and Saudi Arabia. Establish an international coalition of Guardians from 10 nations.

UPDATE: JUNE 2024

Hamas & Yahya Sinwar Refuses All Cease Fire Terms & Agreements

After months of good faith dialogue between the US, Israel, Egypt & Qatar intermediaries to bring about a conclusion to the war against Hamas's illegal invasion and genocide of Israeli civilians, Hamas has once again rejected all options.

A Path Forward to Palestinian Independence

Objective: To create a sustainable pathway towards Palestinian statehood through the establishment of a designated colony in either Jordan or the Egyptian Sinai Peninsula. The colony will be overseen by an international peacekeeping force and local authorities (Jordanian or Egyptian) with a clear roadmap towards eventual statehood or integration into Jordanian/Egyptian governance, contingent upon the colony's readiness and the will of its residents.

Egypt is Complicit in aiding Hamas: Egypt has long been accused of enabling weapons and aid smuggling to Hamas through a network of underground tunnels. While the President of Egypt might publicly deny any affiliation, intelligence suggests numerous high-level military officials are deeply involved in the smuggling operations. This duplicity allows Egypt to present a united front to its allies, maintaining good diplomatic standing while secretly undermining the peace process by aiding Hamas. Given Egypt's complicity in these activities, it is imperative that Egypt rectifies its actions by allowing Israel and the international community to purchase land in the Sinai Peninsula for the establishment of a Palestinian colony. This move could pave the way for a genuine effort towards peace and stability in the region.

Construction work is already taking place in the Eastern part of Sinai for a potential reception and holding area for Gazans, "a refugee city," should the conflict spill over into Egypt.[1] This is an eventuality that Egypt is strongly opposed to but that it is – rightly – making sure to be prepared for, both by heightening security and a military presence on the border with Rafah and also by preparing such facilities, just in case.

We call on negotiations to center around this new refugee city.

Key Components:

  1. Location Selection:

    • Identify suitable areas in Jordan or the Egyptian Sinai Peninsula that can accommodate the Palestinian colony, ensuring economic viability and security.

  2. International Oversight:

    • Establish an international peacekeeping force to oversee security and stability within the colony, ensuring adherence to international norms and agreements.

    • Facilitate humanitarian aid and development assistance through international organizations to support the colony's infrastructure and community needs.

  3. Local Governance:

    • Entrust the day-to-day administration of the colony to either Jordanian or Egyptian authorities, ensuring cooperation and alignment with national policies.

    • Collaborate closely with local governments to integrate the colony into broader economic and social frameworks.

  4. Roadmap to Statehood:

    • Develop a clear 10-year roadmap outlining milestones for the colony's transition towards statehood or integration into Jordanian/Egyptian governance.

    • Conduct periodic reviews and assessments to evaluate progress in areas such as governance, security, economic development, and deradicalization efforts.

  5. Democracy and Self-Determination:

    • Conduct a referendum within the colony to allow residents to choose between statehood, integration into Jordan or Egypt, or other viable options based on international norms.

    • Ensure transparency and inclusivity in decision-making processes, respecting the rights and preferences of the colony's inhabitants.

  6. De-radicalization and Extremism Monitoring:

    • Implement robust monitoring mechanisms to track and address extremist ideologies or activities within the colony.

    • Establish educational and social programs aimed at promoting tolerance, coexistence, and non-violence among residents.

    • Collaborate with international partners and organizations experienced in de-radicalization efforts to provide expertise and support.

  7. International Support and Diplomatic Engagement:

    • Garner support from international stakeholders, including neighboring countries, regional powers, and global organizations, to endorse and sustain the peace process.

    • Engage in diplomatic initiatives to secure funding, technical assistance, and political backing for the colony's development and integration efforts.

Conclusion: This proposal aims to provide a structured and peaceful resolution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict by establishing a Palestinian colony in Jordan or Egyptian Sinai under international oversight. By ensuring effective governance, security, and socioeconomic development, and by fostering a democratic process and de-radicalization efforts, the colony can progress towards statehood or integration into Jordanian/Egyptian governance. This approach prioritizes the rights and aspirations of the Palestinian people while promoting regional stability and cooperation.

The Future of Hamas:

Hamas has no future. The path of violence and terror they have chosen has lead to their ultimate destruction. It is clear that Israel has every right to finish the war that Hamas started on October 7. Hamas and Radical Islam has no place in this world. Their fake Martyrdom is a deception of Satan. Inshallah, if God will its, every soldier of Hamas will greet Allah in the next life to receive judgement.

I pray for the people and the children of Gaza. I pray for their salvation from the great evil of Hamas. I pray that as good and just students of the Quran, the people of Gaza will be freed from their oppressors and offered a new future—one of hope, peace, and prosperity. It is time for a new chapter, free from the tyranny of terror, where the people of Gaza can build a better life in harmony and security.
