If it is a temporary compromise only, can those suppoorting it be called "peaceful"? I mean what do they think is coming when the temporariness comes to an end? Voluntary self-dissolving of Israel?

I think if a two-state solution only is seen as temporarily, then what is coming after it necessarily must be violent a solution attempt again, which would be according to Islamic ideology as well (which prohibits lasting peace settlements, but allows only temporary seize-fires of limited, preferred: short lasting - to buy time to again top regain the needed strength to overcome opponents of Islam by force).

I know this is a fundamental aspect of Islamic ideology in general and not explicitly tailored to the Palestinian issue alone, but nevertheless - it is part of the Islamic ideologic self-understanding on which also thew Palestinians - as the Muslims that they are - are basing. So it has to be taken into account. Islam accepts "peace treaties" only in the meaning of temporary seize-fires when it is meeting a force stronger then it'S own. The time of letting rest the fight serves the purpose to gain the power to contunue the fight once chances are more promising.
