300-500 million Arabs, 1.5 million of them Israeli Arabs, don't think there should be a Jewish homeland where Israel is located. 5.5 million Israeli Jews and 3-4 million non-Israeli Jews do think there should be a Jewish homeland where Israel is located. The rest of the world doesn't really care. So let the judgment of the collective stakeholders make the decision - 300-500 million Nays against less than 10 million Yays. The rest of us, as non-stakeholders, in our "objective judgment", might as well side (to the extent that we have to choose sides) with the larger population group

If that's how it's done, can North and South America, Europe and Asia register a vote on the Arab world's recent contributions? Do they get to be "stakeholders" too? Seems to me they contribute a far higher percentage of the GDP.
