31. what would work?
here is the easiest one. Israel (of course this means the US pays for it) builds it's security fence on the Green line without any negotiation whatsoever with the Palestinians, you could even build a suspended bridge from Gaza to the West Bank.

In very short order Palestinians would be begging to recognize Israel and make peace so they could get work permits.

This could be done in six months and would absolutely prevent all suicide bombings, rocket attacks would of course be dealt with by apache helicopters so I can't imagine anyone really wants to die for the sake of launching some random rockets over the wall.

I would highly, highly, recomend the US paying to rebuild the infrastructure of the West Bank and Gaza (Israel hasn't rebuilt one thing since '67, it's going to hell) and building all the refugee's very nice homes. People with a house and a TV and food in the fridge are unlikely militant political creatures.
