AHC: Make Israel/Palestine more...Northern Ireland-like

That is, instead of OTL, have a situation where:

1) Israel/Palestine either becomes independent as a binational state, or remains British/becomes part of some other country

2) No large-scale population transfer happens on either side (with the exception of Jewish immigration). Most regions of Israel/Palestine have both Arab and Jewish populations, and most big cities have distinctly Arab and Jewish areas/neighborhoods

3) A situation develops where (at least sections of) the Arab and Jewish communities both have a problem with the "legitimate" authorities, and form paramilitary groups

4) Rather than being like OTL, the Isreali/Palestinian conflict thus becomes more...Northern Ireland like-ie, a sort of low-intensity war waged between Arab and Jewish terrorist groups, with an (in theory) neutral police/army that is nevertheless percieved as favorable to one side
 
Hmmm. Probably need to limit/prevent the Holocaust, thereby leading to less Jewish imigration to Israel and more equal numbers.
