The simulation explored a proposed Israeli Palestinian federal government aimed at promoting peace and equality. Josef outlined the structure: a shared parliament, president, and judiciary, operating independently of existing governments. Guest speaker David Malovni raised doubts about the proposal’s feasibility but agreed to participate under certain conditions.
Discussion also covered the newly ratified federal constitution, which allows Israeli and Palestinian governments to veto legislation affecting their sovereignty. While participants voiced concerns about internal divisions and implementation, they agreed to proceed with the simulation.
Four legislative proposals were debated:
- Parliamentary Veto Power – Approved by both sides.
- Education for Tolerance – Approved, with concerns about execution.
- Common Police Force – Rejected over sovereignty issues.
- Federal Taxation – Received mixed support.
A post-simulation survey showed 96% support for a federal government, though skepticism about real-world implementation remained.
