This is a game theory chart I made on the Israeli and Palestinian conflict/issue. There are three major options, and when both parties cannot agree on which option to take the result is a Delay. As you can see the Delay works in Israels favor but not the Palestinians. With every Delay, Israel gains more settlements and more Jews make Aliyah (migration to Israel), while the West Bank Palestinians remain unrepresented in the Knesset. *Just remember both sides do not have equal bargaining power. Israel has both military and information superiority over the situation. Economist Joseph Stiglitz wrote, as a nobel prize concept, that asymmetrical information differences between two parties results in one party having bargaining superiority in the negotiation of a contract/treaty. The historical and current situation in the West Bank shows that Israel has been playing a game theory strategy without most of the world even knowing the game.- Justin Waters
