To facilitate peace and end the war in Gaza, the plan proposes a series of immediate, intermediate, and long-term steps focused on dialogue, reconciliation, and mutual recognition between Palestinians and Israelis.

1.  Immediate Steps:

Disband the Palestinian Anti-Normalization Committee to foster meetings between Israelis and Palestinians, encouraging youth interaction.

Reactivate the Anti-Incitement Palestinian-Israeli joint committee.

Form a joint committee for reconciliation proposals, commemorating shared history.

Establish a committee with third-party academics to create a joint narrative.

2.  Gaza Initiatives:

  Release all Israeli hostages and withdraw the IDF from Gaza.

Set up an 18-month Multinational Gaza Trusteeship, inspired by Cambodia's 1991 model, including military, police, and administrative personnel, led by a foreign figure.

Afterward, incorporate Gaza into a Palestinian-Israeli agreement, ensuring a safe passage to the West Bank.

3.  Permanent Agreement:

Negotiate a peace agreement recognizing the statehood and homelands of both peoples, without harming minority rights.

The negotiations will consider previous drafts from both formal and informal negotiations, including the Beilin-Abu Mazen Agreement of October 1995, the Clinton Parameters of December 2000, the Arab Peace Initiative of March 2002, the Ayalon-Nusseibeh Statement of Principles of July 2002, the Geneva Accord of December 2003, and the Holy Land Confederation of February 2022

The panel discussion at the World Forum on the future of Democracy, Tech, and Humankind, featuring Yossi Beilin, Moncef Marzouki, Jamal Nusseibeh, Daniel Levy, and Hiba Husseini, tackled the urgent and complex nature of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The conversation highlighted the significance of narratives, mutual respect for memories, and the idea of a joint narrative to bridge the gap between Palestinian and Israeli perspectives. 

Beilin suggested forming a committee to establish a shared narrative, emphasizing that understanding each other's stories could lead to a more united future. He also advocated for a confederation between Israel and Palestine, noting the importance of addressing the narratives in educational systems.

Moncef Marzouki reflected on his experiences and observations about hatred and violence in the region, criticizing the disproportionate response to conflicts and the cycle of hatred it perpetuates. He stressed the need to focus on ending the current violence and addressing the wave of hatred sweeping across the Arab world.

Jamal Nusseibeh echoed the urgency of addressing the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and emphasized the need for a ceasefire and international support to pave the way for a two-state solution. He argued that Palestinians are ready for democracy and peace, provided they are given the freedom and support to establish their own state.

Daniel Levy critiqued the current approach to the conflict, highlighting the need for immediate action to stop the violence in Gaza and criticizing the lack of accountability for violations of international law. He called for a focus on ending the occupation and apartheid conditions faced by Palestinians, suggesting that a shift towards equality and justice is essential for peace.

Hiba Husseini stressed the immediate need for a ceasefire in Gaza, the re-establishment of basic services, and a political horizon that includes the end of occupation and the realization of a Palestinian state. She called for international action to stop the violence and support the rights and dignity of the Palestinian people.

The panelists collectively underscored the need for an immediate ceasefire, international intervention to ensure security and peace, and a long-term political solution based on mutual recognition, respect, and the right to self-determination for both Israelis and Palestinians.
