The problem is nobody on the Palestinian side seems interested in the two state solution. Mahmoud Abbas refused a very generous offer in 2009[1], and since then kept refusing to further negotiate. Hamas aren't much into negotiating either, so there's no one to talk to.

My hope is that one of the locks in this situation is held by Iran, and once it's released we may see new opportunities.
