The problem is again that the three sides are not willing to compromise, Gaza was returned to the Palestinians in 2005 with no pre conditions, the Israeli settlements were left as-is in hope that Palestinians will use it for good. The famous blocked came only a couple of years later when Hamas won the election. The Palestinian Authority is not recognized as a state for still have embassies in some countries, so at least for a short while there were 3 states but all in a very unstable and fragile state. Hamas never abandoned the will the eliminate Israel, extremist Israelis never abandoned the will the add more and more settlements without bothering finding a solution to Arabs, the PA is also not trying to find a real solution partly due to corruption and being afraid of their own rivals. Having lived most of my adult life in the area I can see how everyone have apoint (with a strong exception of extremists and especially Hamas) but on the other hand how a compromise will never be reached.
