The Jordan Option: The Ultimate Alternate Solution -
This event is a full day conference dedicated to presenting the ultimate alternate solution for the Arab/Jewish conflict including both the pros and the cons.
In essence this solution takes its inspiration from the Feisal/Weizmann agreement of 1918.
This solution calls for Jordan to be the Palestine state and Israel to the Jordan River, to be the state of the Jews.
It calls for complete normalization between the two and considerable economic cooperation.
The Palestinians living in Israel will be incentivized to voluntarily move to Jordan
