I'm not going to try/search again to cite all the possibilities for Israel to make peace with its opponents, something could be given &/or conceded, but if we sometimes hear that the west loses its battles across the globe despite its military superiority it's because you don't win completely as long as there's still one heart in the population that hasn't been conquered, and it becomes problematic to solve if a majority of this population hates you(, you can't kill everyone).
The demands made to Israel are legitimate, who cares about expanding your borders, we'll be multi-planetary one day, and perhaps that alliances will make borders meaningless before that(, e.g. with the e.u.), uniting with its neighbours isn't impossible, including Iran, Syria, Yemen, Lebanon, Iraq, ...
Its opponents are opposed(, at least officially,) to very specific characteristics of Israel that aren't integral to its identity, where's the problem then, just agree with their demands. A pro-palestinian/yemeni/iranian/syrian/.. Israel that makes palestinians happy by 'living with'/helping each other would be accepted, that's only two requests. And making palestinians happy doesn't necessarily mean losing, but sharing the land, the wealth, the human rights(, not necessarily the population), and the rest. While i know it won't be easy and stay uncertain that it would go well, i dare think that it's not impossible.
Heck, i'll go further, so mock/correct me if you want, but 'in a perfect world'/'with perfect humans', we would have united with the vietnamese people and with the communists worldwide, we would have embraced Germany after a WW1 that shouldn't have happened in the first place, and colonization wouldn't have threatened the nazis/fascists/.. because it'd have been an honest/altruistic help to the South and not a.n 'greedy exploitation'&'irrecoverable destruction'. Our Earth is big enough for multiple ideologies, and are all these wars, for personal/nationalist gains, karma for our lack of humanity/'mutual aid', everyone suffers in the end.
The selfish preoccupied with keeping what's his doesn't even realize that he/we would be wealthier by sharing(, lands/resources/..).
These eternal wars for gaining always more are senseless if we're already one(&diverse), and it's not just words, it has practical/real consequences.
Israel could be accepted under certain legitimate conditions(, the same could be said for any country/conflict), of course the solution/compromises aren't always obvious, and the sober imperfect reality is that propaganda only exposes one side, so in the end only might makes right.
In fact, it's often(, almost always now that i think about it,) the weakest that is right, at least if it's the only one ready to make concessions, while usually the strongest doesn't want to, or on an unequal footing. Israel would have already accepted a ceasefire a long time ago if its opponents were strong enough(, and that's the truth), it isn't actively seeking to make peace with its neighbours, nor even ready to make the most basic concessions in regard to its illegal settlements.
I believe that the conditions/details for Israel's acceptation should be one of the main topic in discussion(, not only that everyone knows them, which isn't the case at least here in the west, but that Israel finally complies with the basic demands in order to be finally accepted, instead of greedily wanting more&more). It won't, and i don't think that they'll vote far-left anytime soon, so causes will bring their consequences.

A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.
Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.
Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.
We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.
