I am approaching the subject as a political problem..colonialism

1. Israel isn't a colony and never has been.
2. The problem has nothing to do with colonialism but with Arab maximalism and intransigence and terrorism.
3. The premise of the mindless left: colonialism as the ultimate evil. Where would you want to live, len? Under 19th century Ottoman rule? In today's Syria or Iraq? Or in any British colony you might care to name? There are plenty worse choices than colonialism.
4. You decry colonialism as the ultimate evil...so you propose the death or expulsion of 5.5 Jewish Israelis as an improvement.

Quack, quack, indeed. You are displaying your fine moral sensibilities for all to see.
