    The “resolution” the UN needs to come to here, in my opinion, is to put the whole area (Israel and Palestine) under UN control until something equitable can be worked out.

      UN control is notorious for not working out well, and liking children too much.

        Not working out well compared to what’s happening now? And you think children are being protected from anything now?

          No, of course not. There is just a very poor reputation for UN Peace keeping forces, so giving them martial law in one of the most contested places in the world might not end any better.
