EDIT: I'm interested in how a free Palestine would play out in terms of what that would mean for women, gays, children, people of non-muslim religions, in terms of personal freedoms, etc. For the average citizen/denizen what would that look like?

I think they will have a strong will to work really hard to rebuild and will have a good mix between modernity and tradition like Japan

I've read that population-wise, Palestine is over 50% young people/children. Do you think that might be key to a generational refresh that allows for compromise in producing a solution at some point if all the pieces can line up?

Are you thinking "young people" = "less religious"?

That's mainly the case for Christians/the west, not Muslims in Muslim countries.

Eh, young muslims drink in excess far more than the previous generation. They just pretend like they don't.

Yes, young people usually engage more in "forbidden" activities than older people.

I feel that once the young are out of the watchful judgemental eye of the old (i.e. they pass on), things will change drastically
