      Alternately, they could just trade. Palestinians get moved to Israel, Israelis get moved to Gaza, since they want it so much.

        I don’t know if I would trust that. Both sides would potentially do harmful things to the land before being moved. I’d suspect they would plant land mines and trip wires before relocating. I would just have both groups moved to entirely different places. Move the Palestinians to Iran and move the Israeli’s to some place like South Africa.

          South Africa

          I’d love to know your thinking here. You picked the one country that’s been constantly reporting Isreal to the international courts for genocide.

          Or were you imagining a District 9 situation?

          The best candidate for Israel would be the US, that’s where their biggest source of immigrants is. If you’re moving millions of people you’d need to send them to wealthy countries.

            Eh, I figured it would keep them in check without the culture shock of entering a nation with a vast mix of religions. Then again, South Africa might have more Muslims which would just stir the pot, huh?

              Interesring approach. It may not have masses of religions but it’s sometimes called the Rainbow Nation because it has like 8 major ethnicities/cultures.

              But since the majority of older people were victims of Apartheid (during which Israel supported the racist Apartheid regime at the time) and South Africa have been calling out Israel for practicing apartheid for decades, it would be about as stirring the pot as you can get.
