What happens when terrorism against Israel continues after a Palestinian State is established?
What happens when the Palestinians want more land after a Palestinian State is established?
What happens when Palestinian refugees try to flood into Israel proper?
What happens when the Palestinians demand Jerusalem be the capital of the Palestinian State?
Surely, the Palestinians will want an army for their State, what happens when a Palestinian State starts building a large army?
It seems to me that the road map for peace will create more problems than it purports to solve!
'There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.'"

Well, we can always look at the bright side. Sometimes, diplomats fail, and we have peace.

Seriously, though, If I was the one to make the choices on the Israeli side:
1.
a. demand other side to curbe terrorists. If that fails...
b. take actions myself. If they retaliate....
c. war.
2.
a. "Tough Luck, try to take some from Jordan, fools!", If they start any agression....
b. retaliate. If they don't stop the war...
c. wipe the floor with them.
3. What do you mean? I don't allow them in! du-h!
4. During negotiations? sure we can talk about that. I think that all of the old city should be accessible to everyone. INCLUDING THE TEMPLE MOUNT!
5. Large Army? ahh, of course, with their strong economy, advanced technological workforce, and abundance of natural resources. .
Seriously, though, I don't mind them having an army. I think it's a shame they would invest in something as useless ( And futile ) As building an army to go to war with Israel.
And, as I've said... if they'll try to pull a trick on us..... We'll kick their asses.
And, as I've said... if they'll try to pull a trick on us..... We'll kick their asses.
How many violations of the Oslo accords were made and how many Israelis died before we started "kicking their ass"? What makes you think short-term thinking leaders wont repeat again and ignore those violations for the sake of temporary stability?

But isn't there a risk that the other Arab countries would help a Palestinian State build an army by sending equipment, weapons etc...?

Besides, I've already stated full separation from them. Wall/Fence/River full of Crocodiles/Minefield. I couldn't care less.
May I recommend Rover? I mean, it's got the nerd cool factor...

One of the most important Israeli demands is that Palestine will be demilitarized. Even Barak demanded that, and IIRC the Pals agreed.
The Palestinian Authority has "agreed" to many things, especially those terms of Oslo...

so much birogtry, hatred, fear. So much willingness to continue the failures of the present, and the past. Perhaps hopes of transplanting into the area the failures of elsewhere? In short, so much hopelessness, anger, and despair.
Yup, a great illustration of the difficulty this plan will encounter.
