he has no answer to your question or mine. My gut says its going to be hard to have peace. As an American and as a Jew i feel a responsibility to always pursue it.

Sure, but as usual there are always competing goals. Lets see how much you want to fight for peace.

Which would you pursue at the cost of the other?

1- Israel remains predominantly Jewish and maintains its various racially-religiously based right of return + land ownership + marriage + governmental support for fundamentalist Jewish study laws, or

2- Israelis gain peace as a result of giving up its Jewishness, granting Pal refugees citizenship and equality, and having the nations laws (to the greatest extent possible) have nothing to do with its citizens ethnicity or religion?

I know you think #2 won't work, that's not the point.

Theoretically, if #2 would work, do you prefer peace to the loss of Jewish-Israeli nationality? Or do you prefer to fight against whatever opposes it to maintain a Jewish nation state?
