A vision of a very different Palestine, and of the Israel beside it, is not hard to find. In 2005, the Rand Corporation, a US research institute, developed the “Arc,” a genuinely inspiring plan to build a transportation corridor that would link Palestine’s principal business and population hubs in the West Bank, then curve across Israel into Gaza, where a long-planned airport and seaport would be built.
打造不同的巴勒斯坦及以色列愿景并不难。2005年，美国研究机构兰德公司推出了“弧形发展区”理念，这是一项修建连接西岸巴勒斯坦主要商业人口中心交通走廊的鼓舞人心的计划，该走廊穿过以色列进入加沙，筹划已久的空港和海港正在那里修建。
