> one land, one humanity
Now, remember - you are running Israel. And, most people on the right agree with you that there should just be one land, one humanity.
But, the folks in the camps - they don't want to surrender and accept citizenship to your "one land, one humanity" country.
They were never given half the chance, so you don't really know.
Do you mean that if you were Israel's leader, you would give the people in the camps a chance to surrender?
No; a chance to be full citizens in the same state, removing discrimination of "Arabs" or "Jewish", refounding the country on the basis of a modern state: separation of church and state, freedom of religion, equality for everyone before the law. Open a process to discuss reconciliation and reparations for expropriation of land (which Israel can easily afford). Give Palestinians the chance to regain their dignity and hope, in exchange for long-term peace and security.
Or do something else, I don't care; at this point one has to try anything but this slow-motion ethnic cleansing and "two states" bantustans.
