@Mark-fo3if : I support your statement: "It really doesn’t matter what you call the region now but only that all people’s are equal." It reminds me that 20% of Israeli citizens TODAY are Arab Muslims and they have #equal rights under the law with Jews. Arab Israelis sit in the Knesset, they serve in the security services, the judiciary, and they work in the highest levels of banking, education, health, and technology, etc. Those 20% are from Arab families who lived in the British Mandate of Palestine and who chose to ACCEPT Jewish rule in 1948. I believe they are the lucky ones. Of course some are still hostile to living as equals with Jews (they prefer to see the Jews as 'dhimmis') and they cause trouble. But with time and good education, not indoctrination from Islamists, they will realise they have better lives in Israel than in any Arab country or under Hamas or the PA.

@Mark-fo3if : I agree with what Shaina Zion said to you. How can Israel interfere with The Palestinian Authority and Hamas who are the elected governments of the so-called 'Palestinians'? Israel does play an overall security role but the people should look to their own corrupt leaders for 'rights' which we know don't really exist in the Islamic world. The two million Arabs who are Israeli citizens know which government they prefer to live under.

@Mark-fo3if : So what's your solution for the people who are trapped under the PA and Hamas when their rulers are hell-bent on obliterating Israel and the Jews who live there? I see the PA and Hamas as just another variation of the authoritarian regimes that Muslim countries have ruling over them. And remember that Egypt has also erected a security wall to keep the jihadists of Gaza from entering Sinai illegally. Is Egypt also the oppressor?

@Mark-fo3if : I agree that the PA and Hamas are destructive to a peaceful future, and I also see that Israel will eventually extend their sovereignty over Judea and Samaria, but probably not the Gaza Strip. Incentivising another Arab country to provide citizenship rights to the Arab occupants of Judea and Samaria is being talked about in back channels, I believe. You have to be realistic. Look at those countries founded on Judeo-Christian values which today have more than 15% of its citizens following Islamic values, eg. Sweden and France. The clash is obvious. This is not about skin colour. It's about *human rights values*, and a doctrine that states it is 'the best' and 'the final seal'. If human rights are so important to you, then please tell me what rights does Islam give women and girls?

@Mark-fo3if : Why does Israel extending sovereignty over Judea and Samaria have to result in ethnic cleansing? Today 21% of Israeli citizens are Arabs. They sit in the Knesset (they are Muslim Brotherhood members, no less!!!), in the judiciary, security services, education, banking, health, science, technology, etc. and they have equal rights with Jews. Find me ONE neighbouring Arab country that hasn't 'ethnically cleansed' the Jews, and pretty much all of their Christians? Find me ONE Muslim country that doesn't persecute homosexuals and apostates, and have horrible rights for females? A practical solution can be found but it seems you'd like the so-called 'Palestinians' to be held in limbo with corrupt leadership and no chance of citizenship of a legitimate country. You'd prefer to keep using them as 'weapons' against the Jews? You don't like the idea of them being granted citizenship of an Arab country and then given long-term residence status in their homeland, with a path to full citizenship if they reject violence against the Jewish people? What's your personal stake in this?

@Mark-fo3if : Thanks, I was just curious. You certainly didn't offend me, and I wish you well.
