  1. Islam wants to dominate.

  2. What would you do when Hamas says they want ALL of Israel with NO Jews? They want to restore the Islamic Caliphate with Jerusalem as the headquarters. There's no way Israel will sit back and let that happen. Nor will the West.

  3. What nonsense. The Jewish people are #indigenous to the land of Israel. In return for their support to the British in WWI they were promised the chance to reconstitute their ancestral home, providing that all current occupants were given equal rights and freedom of religion. TODAY over two million Arab Muslims and other minorities such as Druze, Bedouin, Circassians, Arab Christians, etc. have equal rights with Jews in Israel. All Arab living in the area who are hostile to Israel should be resettled in an Arab country. The Ottoman Caliphate was DEFEATED in 1918 and the Hejazi Arabs, who also supported the British in the war effort ended up being granted self-rule in 99% of the carved-up Ottoman land, today called Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia and Jordan. Losers of wars don't get to choose who ends up with the booty.  Israel is here to stay and it will only grow stronger...🙏💙

  4. A fourth option proposed by people in Saudi Arabia and Jordan is for the Arabs of Palestinian to be given citizenship by an Arab nation, which could be done with "incentives". Then, if they want to live in Israel in their current cities, etc. they could apply for "residence status" in Israel. That would give them all the benefits of life as an Israeli citizen, like the two million Arab Israelis have today, but NOT national voting rights. They would be similar to the Arabs of East Jerusalem, except that if they commit a violent crime they can be deported to the country of their citizenship. Israel needs such an option as it is a big security risk to allow Islamic jihadi terrorists to remain in their country. Millions of people around the world live with "residence status" in other countries and they don't whine about it. They are grateful.

  5.  @mmow004 : I'm proposing that the Arab countries be incentivised to give the 'Palestinians' citizenship after DENYING them this for the past 75 years. The Arab League did so in order to keep the 'displaced' peoples as "perpetual refugees" in an attempt to destroy Israel from the inside, after losing many wars waged against Israel.  Just because people have lived in a place for many generations it doesn't mean they are "indigenous" to that place. Examples of indigenous peoples of the Levant and Mesopotamia are Jews, Samaritans, Druze, Kurds, and Assyrians. Arabs and Bedouin are mostly indigenous to the Arabian Peninsula. In the last 110 years around 80-100 MILLION people were displaced when people didn't "fit" with the new countries being formed. 16 million South Asians changed countries in 1947 when Pakistan was formed. 1.5 million Greeks/Turks were forced to change countries in 1924 when Turkey was formed. Around 800,000 thousand Jews were persecuted and had to leave their ancestral homes in Arab countries after Israel was formed. Do these people still moan and whine today? Do they get billions in funding like the 'Palestinians'? Do they have their own special UNRWA that employs thousands of people? When the Ottoman Empire was defeated in 1918 it ceded its land to the Allies who were under NO legal obligation to hand it over to the occupants. But they did. The Hejazi Arabs (who were the largest imperialist/colonising force in the known world at one time) got 99% of the land, much of it oil-rich. Today those countries are Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia and Jordan. The #indigenous Jews want less than 1% to reconstitute their ancestral home. Land which they've had a 'continuous connection' to for 3,500+ years. It was promised to them in return for their support to the British in WWI, and they share it with one-fifth Arab Israeli citizens whose families accepted life in a Jewish state in 1948.
