AviK,
The only thing that matters is that they were living there when the IDF took control. I’m not saying they have more rights then the Jews living there. I’m saying that one group of people keeping another under military control without giving them a state or equal rights is immoral and not sustainable.
Philospher,
I’m not against the idea of a Jewish state. I just think the status quo is not sustainable and the only fair solution that is practical is to give them their own state.
Shopping613,
Being ok living in a non Jewish state in the region where everyone is equal is not an option for the Israeli government. The entire point of the Zionist enterprise is to have a JEWISH state. Not just a democracy in the Middle East.
Finally I think my analogy to Native Americans (I’m comparing the Jews to the Native Americans) is perfectly sound. I’ll repeat it here for clarity: Imagine that a bunch of Native Americans put together a military and took back New York. Would it be fair for them to drive those living in New York out? Or keep all the people not of Native American descent under military control with no say in the Government?
