THE ISRAEL - PALESTINE FEDERATION
THE ISRAEL - PALESTINE FEDERATION - One Country with Two States sharing a Capital.
There is one time tested democratic political formula peace plan that has ended many wars in history called a Federation of States.
The USA, Canada and many other democratic Countries ended their own civil wars with a Federation of States and they all share a Capital. The International borders of Israel - Palestine can be achieved by joining together the internal States borders to form restored Holy Book Borders for all citizens.
All Federal Democracies have separate State governments and they share maximized undivided International borders and they share a Capital.
Choosing the Capital for the Federation of Israel - Palestine is easy because Jerusalem is listed as the capital of The Holyland in the Torah, the Bible and the Quran.
Both sides want all of The Holyland for their Country and want Jerusalem as their Capital.
At least we can agree on something.
Only a Federation can deliver everything for everyone and end the war with two winners.
Jerusalem is shared now and can become the undivided capital of Israel / Palestine for all citizens.
This can be achieved by joining together the municipalities of Arabic East Jerusalem with the municipalities of Hebrew West Jerusalem on the Federal map to form the undivided Capital city of Israel - Palestine for all citizens.
Various internal (blue) Hebrew municipalities and various (green) Arabic areas throughout The Holyland can be joined together on the Federal map to form the Country of Israel – Palestine's maximized undivided International historic borders.
Rather than two States at war this Federal Peace Plan creates two States that form One Country by adopting a Federal Government structure and a New Constitution. The proposed Federal Constitution of Israel - Palestine must be based on fairness and equality to inspire peace and end the war. The Federal Constitution must forever guarantee 50%-50% representation from each State at the Federal level so no side is ever in power over the other State.
No side in power over the other side is a requirement for lasting peace.
The Federal Constitution of fairness must guarantee two leaders, one from each State.
The leaders from each State direct questions from other politicians and from the public.
The proposed Federal Level of politicians would be appointed by the States politicians to start and then democratically elected down the road on the consent of the State governments.
The proposed new Federal Court would maintain a 50%-50% representation of Judges that are appointed from each State.
The Federal Court would be above the State's Supreme Courts and the higher Federal Court would settle State disputes and write new Federal Laws that affect both States.
The current State government of Israel would change to be conducted in Hebrew and Arabic would not be allowed.
The State government of Palestine would be conducted only in Arabic and no Hebrew would be allowed.
The proposed Federal Government of Palestine - Israel would be totally bi-lingual and conducted in both of the country's national languages with ear pieces and translators.
A Palestinian living in the State of Israel's (blue) borders would vote only in Palestinian Arabic State elections and a Hebrew speaking Israeli citizen living in the State of Palestine (green) State negotiated borders would only vote in Israeli elections.
Voting in both elections is illegal.
A so-called Israeli Arab (Palestinian) can choose to remain a citizen of Israel by choosing Hebrew as their official language on the proposed Israel Palestine citizenship form.
This Federal Peace Plan is about respecting and protecting language rights and is not about race or religion.
All citizens of Israel - Palestine can live and work anywhere they choose inside the Country's International borders.
The Constitution guarantees freedom of mobility and the right to travel anywhere in the country.
Federations have one currency that can have Arabic on one side and Hebrew on the other side.
All proposed Federal Departments must be headed by one Minister from each State to ensure fairness.
Each Federal Department will have two Department heads so neither State ever has more power than the other State.
All Federal Departments are staffed by 50% Israeli and 50% Palestinian employees by law to ensure structural fairness all Federal Departments have an equal number of staff.
In this Federal Peace Plan the number of citizens each State has becomes irrelevant and majority rule is eliminated by maintaining the Constitutional 50% - 50% political structure.
This Federal plan eliminates Israeli fears of being voted out of existence by Palestinian majority.
Majority Rule does not exist with a Two State Federation so the number of citizens each State has does not matter.
The constitutional Right of Return and immigration to both Nation States is very easy without majority rule.
In Canada, the French Quebec Government will always be conducted in French even if there are more English speaking citizens that live in Quebec.
The so-called Jewish Settlers would not be removed with this Federal Plan but they may be living in a Province of the State of Palestine.
All citizens can live anywhere in the Country's International Borders and citizens can live in each other's States.
Palestinian areas in Lebanon and Jordan may apply to become new Arabic municipalities of the State of Palestine.
The Right of Return with tis plan does not disturb the 50% - 50% structure of the two State Federation.
Both official languages can be spoken and written anywhere in the Country.
Business owners can make signs and do business in any language they choose with no restrictions and no bi-lingual requirements.
Federations enjoy free trade between States and Federal laws regulate imports from other countries.
No citizens can import weapons into the country and defense becomes a Federal power.
All Federal Democracies have one integrated Army and the States local police forces have light arms. The current IDF would evolve to be called the IPDF down the road.
To build trust all members of the Federal Army must speak in English while on the job. Some of the traditional Federal powers to be transferred to the Federal Government are Public Health, Infrastructure, Water Resources, Energy, Education, Economic Development, International trade, Business Development, the Federal Army and so on.
Federal public schools are free and teach Israeli and Palestinian children both of the Country's national languages and schools teach children the bloody history.
The personal tax rate and business tax rates must always remain 10% guaranteed by the Constitution and any tax increases are not Constitutional.
There would also be a 10% Value Added Tax on all products sold and a 10% import duty unless there is a free trade agreement with the exporting country.
To finance the Federation of Israel - Palestine peace bonds can be offered that guarantee International investors 5% annual interest for either a 5 year or 10 year term.
To eliminate poverty and fuel the economy the Federal Government can guarantee all citizens a minimum income or provide citizens with a government job.
Low taxes and a historic peace agreement would attract many new industries and new investments to the Country of Israel - Palestine towards full employment.
The proposed Federal government will need a Federal building to be built in the Capital City of Jerusalem.
This proposed new Federal Government building or new Temple of Peace respect all three of the world's monotheistic religions and the different religious cultures.
Please let me know if you have any questions, comments or ideas on how to improve the proposed One Country with Two States political Constitution of Israel - Palestine.
