The problem with Israel/Pal is that the conditions that make it a stalemate are very stable.
Israel, the more powerful party wants to negotiate a compromise starting from the status quo, the usual starting line for negotiations. But the Palestinians, the weaker party, want to destroy the more powerful party and sees any other agreement as a shameful surrender to be avoided at all costs. Since the so-called international community conspires to pay, feed and protect the weaker party, and protect it from the bad results of the last 94 years of its attempts to massacre the Jews, the result is a stalemate. The rest is diplomatic hooey.
