(11,363 posts)why not Antarctica? It's one of the few places on the planet that doesn't have an indigenous population to displace, and with the glaciers melting lots of new land will become accessible. Of course, much of it will be in total darkness for part of the year, but if people can live about the Arctic Circle surely the new settlers can find a way to thrive below the Antarctic Circle. I'm being sarcastic here, but resettling (or forcibly moving) the current inhabitants of Israel/Gaza/wherever to lands already claimed and populated - however sparsely - by another sovereign nation is just repeating what caused problems in the first place.
And no, I don't have a good - or even a mediocre - solution, short of building a time machine and going back to c70 AD when the Romans destroyed the Temple, and even that may not be far back enough.
