And where did Isra'El come from?

Perhaps you are referring to Yaccovsville?

"Just reverse the numbers. Imagine five hundred million Jews and five million Arabs. I was stunned at the simple brilliance of it. Can anyone picture the Jews strapping belts of razor blades and dynamite to themselves? Of course not. Or marshaling every fiber and force at their disposal for generations to drive a tiny Arab State into the sea? Nonsense. Or dancing for joy at the murder of innocents? Impossible. Or spreading and believing horrible lies about the Arabs baking their bread with the blood of children? Disgusting. No, as you know, left to themselves in a world of peace, the worst Jews would ever do to people is debate them to death."

Only problem with that argument is that is not simply imagining Jews and Arabs, but Jews, from elsewhere, and Arabs of Middle Eastern origin.

As for debating, did Haganah, Stern and Irgun debate when they were bombing, assasinating, and creating terror in Palestine in the late 1930s and early 1940s.

Itzhak Shamir, Menachin Begin were debaters?

Sounds like a nice sound bite, but lacks accuracy.
