What might a just peace look like for Israelis and Palestinians? Out of the many options that have been proposed over the decades—one-state, two-state, bi-national confederation, international peacekeeping missions—what seems most likely in the foreseeable future? Is an absence of war our last best hope, or can we keep hope alive for enduring peace that reconciles between the two peoples?
