Ian Bremmer on resolving the land dispute between Jews and Palestinians
Both the Jews and the Palestinians have long, long running and legitimate claims to live on this territory. Palestinians, some 700,000 plus, were kicked off these territories after 1948 post-Holocaust. The Jews had lived on these territories for millennia and a number of empires have kicked them off. We can talk about that. There are people that are far more expert on those histories than I am, but the reality is that for the Jews and the Palestinians that are fighting over this land today, they've been living there for their lifetimes. And so it's really not about who has a right to live on the territory. It's rather that they need to find a way to live together in peace.
