Israel / Palestine Peace Plan - A Federation of two States.
There is a time tested democratic win win political system that has ended many wars in history called a Confederation or Federation of States.
A federation of States in Israel / Palestine would combine the negotiated State borders to form maximized international Federal borders for all citizens of the Holy Land.
The Torah of Moses, the Bible and the Koran all agree on the geography and agree on the capital so who are we to divide it.
This peace plan or democratic political system is based on language protection and it is not based on religion.
The political agreement or proposed new constitution it must be based on these following concepts.
I would like peoples opinions positive or negative. Here are some of the things good people can agree on.
Hebrew is the official language of the State of Israel and Arabic as the official language of the State of Palestine.
Both of the official languages in the federation of Israel / Palestine can be spoken and written anywhere in the federation and business owners can make signs and do business in any language they choose.
You can work and live anywhere in the Federation that you choose.
Federal laws apply to both citizens of the State of Israeli and the State of Palestine.
Citizens are legal equals with equal rights.
Palestine / Israel must only involve only two States at the Federal level.
The two States on the map are comprised of blue color internal Hebrew cities, towns and provinces and red color Arabic cities, towns and Provinces. The capial city or province of Jerusalem would be purple on the map which is a mix of the red and blue.
There is one speaker of the federal government from each State and they talke turns directing questions and answers
to the federal department heads from each State.
All Federal government departments must be headed by one politician from each State.
The federal politicians heading Federal departments would have the same number of staff from each State.
Any expansion of the federation of Israel / Palestine in the future must not effect the constitutional 50%-50% Hebrew - Arabic composition of the Federal government.
The Federal constitution must forever guarantee 50% - 50% equal representation from each of the two States no matter
how many citizens each State has.
This idea would allow for return of refugees and new imigration without disturbing the 50-50% euality of the Federation.
It also allows for expansion of the Federation.
Municipal, State and Federal elections are to be held at the same time for both States.
Federal laws would override State laws and citizens of the Federation can appeal State judgments to the higher federal supreme court with 5 or 6 supreme court judges elected or appointed from each State.
A Federation would eliminate the power struggle over majority rule.
Since the Federal level would always remain equal representation from each State the actual number of citizens of each State has becomes totally irrelevant and not a threat like today.
The various cities and municipalities within Israel / Palestine can have both Hebrew and Arabic names.
States in a federation have one common currency with one language on each side.
States in a federation enjoy free trade between States.
Federations have one integrated army headed by one memeber from each State accountable to the Federal government.
Federations have free Public Education and allow for private schools in either language anywhere in the Federation.
Federations have co-ministers of Public Health, co-ministers of tourism, economic developement, transportation, international trade,
federal parks, sport facilities.
In my opinion all the federal departments need a new Federal building that should be built near Jerusalem the capital of the Israel / Palestine federation.
English should be the official second language of both States but the first language of the army and police. To be in the army/police you need to know English and only speak in English on the job. This will build trust and avoid misunderstandings.
Please let me know if you have any questions, criticisms or ideas on how to improve a proposed federation of Israel / Palestine.
