Can someone help me find the last Israeli peace initiative?

I am looking for the last time Israel put forward proposals for dealing with the regional conflict, either multilaterally or at a country level, I am interested in what Israelis want and what they are prepared to give.

Please - links, not rants.

    Israel has NEVER initiated a peace initiative.

    Every initiative has come from outside.

    Israel basically doesn't make demands, its only demand is a peace agreement which can actually be upheld. But generally, here's the 3 main points:

    * Regarding the borders - Israel is willing to return to the 1967 borders which means complete withdrawal from all Gaza and West bank territories. It took the first step in 2005 when it withdrew from Gaza, that didn't go so well as Hamas only escalated the violence in return. That is why Israel said they won't negotiate with the Hamas, who already stated numerous times they won't ever accept peace.

    * Israel does not agree to accept back the Palestinians[which by now have become children, children's children and childre's grandchildren] which lived in Israel and left in 1948 back into its territory. The Palestinians who didn't leave or those who returned received full citizenship, now it's too late for it. The whole idea of 2 states is for one state to be Palestinian and another to be Israeli. Not one state being Palestinian and the other being half Palestinian, half Israeli.

    * Jerusalem is still being negotiated. And will be for ages more lol

    * And of course - Israel requires a recognition of Israel and renunciation of violence from both sides - Which is the whole purpose of a peace agreement.

    There's also minor things to be discussed like how water will be split, but these are the core issues.

    The last one I remember is when I saw the Israelies on the roofs of their homes when the Israel authorities were making them leave the Gaza Strip so they could give it back to Palestine for peace. My heart went out to these people who were losing their homes just so their country could have peace. Israel constantly cries Peace, Peace and there is no Peace!!!

    Israel has not had peace since they became a nation in 1948. The very next day after they received their statehood in one day, five nations came against Israel. Who initiated this war?
