>>>"So what do you think Israel's policy is here?"<<<
They can be a state, but they must be "lightly armed" and Israel must control the airspace and the borders with Egypt, Syia, and Jordan.


Hm. When I asked about its "policy", I meant what Israel is doing now to achieve the goals you were mentioning - i.e. inheriting part of the "disputed" land minus the Palestinians on it, sharing it with Jordan, etc.

Re "lightly armed", with Israel controlling air space & borders - You realize that is not a real sovereign country. I cannot see how that will be a stable situation. Is there a precedent in history? What if they suddenly declare "independence" and say they are a sovereign country and Israel can take its airspace controls to where it will do more good? And other countries recognize it as "sovereign"?

Arab population centers in Israel will be made part of the Palestinian state. The Israeli Supreme Court will decide that there is a compelling state reason for Israel to remain a Jewish state.

You mean, Arabs will be concentrated in certain neighbourhoods and literally exiled from the country of which they are now citizens? How democratic :-)
