In Palestine, the Arab leaders have been fighting for their lost land for an extended period. From the perspective of results, we find that all their efforts and sacrifices have been wasted. They failed to achieve the target of recovering their land, but they have missed out on precious opportunities to make other kinds of progress, thereby incurring a significant loss. The present age is one of globalisation. The opportunities presenting themselves in equal measure to all are of prime importance now. Now anyone working in a modest office can avail of opportunities available the world over. Given this situation, fighting to acquire a piece of land is anachronistic and can never yield positive results. To establish peace in the Holy Land, it is in the interests of both parties to think seriously and without prejudice, to take some decision to normalize the situation. However, both parties will have to adopt a realistic approach. Any condition that is not acceptable to both sides will be unrealistic and lead to an impasse state. According to Maulana Wahiduddin Khan, the only viable solution to this problem is for the Arabs to abandon all kinds of violence. At the same time, Israel should be willing to give the necessary rights to Palestinian Arabs on equal ground according to its constitution and universal human rights. A reasonable settlement can be reached through peaceful negotiation if these points are accepted.
