The group, seniors, said that priority should be an agreement on borders and security.

Israel must extend its gel for 10 months on the Jewish settlement in the West Bank Palestinians insisted that prior to direct talks may advance.
Settlements are illegal under international law, even if Israel dispute this.
New approach"Now, we call a renewed effort well-founded in international law and respect for the rights of man, to define the borders between Israel and a new Palestinian State, and to address the issues of security, without neglecting other issues at the heart of the conflict," seniors said in a statement.
Otherwise, the possibility of a two-State solution can glide longer, said the group, created by Nelson Mandela in 2007 to tackle global conflict.Said group Israel must put an end to all settlement activities in the occupied Palestinian territory, including East Jerusalem and lift his "illegal and inhumane" blockade of Gaza.
It is also called on Israel to put an end to the occupation of Palestinian land and to accept the limits of a Palestinian State on the borders of 1967 to East Jerusalem as its capital. This may include a "one-to-one" land swap to minor adjustments, she added.

Frustration U.S.Direct negotiations between the Palestinians and Israeli leaders have resumed in Washington in September after a break of nearly two years.
But last week, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton expressed frustration at the latest setback for the Israeli-Palestinian peace talks.Although attempts to secure a new Israeli moratorium on the construction of the American colony had failed, she insisted that the United States would continue to push progress by indirect talks on "basic issues", including borders and security, settlements, refugees and Jerusalem.
Last month administration offered Obama Israel substantial package of incentives, including fighter aircraft and guarantees safety, in exchange for a previous 90 days of a moratorium extension on the consolidation of regulations.
The Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu offered to renew the gel if recognized Palestinian Israel as a Jewish State, but the Palestinian Authority rejected the idea.
US President Barack Obama identified continued U.S. commitment to the peace talks, as a key policy objective.
But the Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas has pledged not to return to the negotiating table while Israel relying on the West Bank settlements.
Israel occupied the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, since 1967, settling near 500,000 Jews in more than 120 institutions.
