17. The nation members of the UN

need to find some way of a different approach to having the body be able to take more serious steps to keep to it's commitments to also resolve the issues of compensation and right of return. By always basically trying to dodge those issues for peace plan after conference after peace plan for 75 years it has left anybody the reasonable conclusion that when the UN/US etc. make promises that it's just words like grains of sand in the desert. If those promised items are no longer to be on the table then just say so.

But until then those who were promised that the homes, businesses and land that was given up would receive compensation have a right to expect the ones who set this in motion so many decades ago and control the situation to make good on their promise. It is long past time to just keep telling people "it will be done some day but just go sit in the refugee camp and we'll let you know." Generations have come and gone and still nothing on those items. It is useless for the purposes of peace to hold out those things and string people along. It is like hearing the words "2 state solution". What little is left now raises viability questions and that means a possibly shaky stability as well and that doesn't bode well for peace either.

The time for the UN to have really resolved this was back in the late '40's/early '50's with a more assertive approach but it didn't happen. Assertiveness towards all parties including the US and Arab state supporters was called for but sadly never happened.
