Shall we see "peace" in Jerusalem soon? Probably not.
Instead of removing the fear of bombs from the Israeli population by a mythic "peace", now the approach is to neutralise the fear through humour. Jews have always made a joke of misery, and this is the latest approach to the new technology of missiles and bombs.

This is the sort of post I used to put on New Whig. I liked having a lot of followers who liked the unusual but significant news items I found every day and posted with pithy comments drawing out some of their implications. It still exists, and perhaps always will.
The solution to Israel's problems is Theological. All Jews need to do is acknowledge that the Prophet of Islam, PBUH is a true Prophet, though not a Jewish Prophet. Islam is Judaism for Gentiles. Ideally, Jews should be welcomed back into their ancestral homeland by all the people who have made their home there in the absence of Jews. The present two-state solution is aimed at mere grudging toleration of Jews by Moslems, but this is unstable and not a long term solution. "Peace" means not just the suspension of hostility, but the antithesis of hostility, which is perhaps "Love".
