Qatar Proposes for a $1billion fund for Palestinians in East Jerusalem

Qatar recently made a proposal for the creation of a billion dollar fund that would would help support the Palestinian Authority. This article touches base on the importance of promoting peace in Israel and the requirement of funds to do so.

The fund would help aid Arabs living in Jerusalem whose support agencies are increasingly becoming bankrupt. With the proposal of this fund Qatar also claimed willing to contribute 250 million dollars stating with Qatar's emir stating, "(Jerusalem) is in serious danger, which requires of us serious action. Palestinian, Arab and Islamic rights in Jerusalem cannot be compromised. Israel must realize this."

This directly correlates with the one state vs. two state solutions that we discussed in class and exemplifies the vast amounts of capital required in order to achieve a peaceful solution within Israel.
