Is that not what the Zionists did? As long as the Zionist objective was a Jewish State, there was nothing to negotiate, as that state by its fundamental nature would have excluded the existing non-Jewish population.

What crap, Steven. Is that why Ben Gurion accepted a partition that didn't even include Jerusalem, with its 100,000 Jews? Is that why they made the Arabs remaining in Israeli citizens, while Jordan ethnically cleansed its Jews?

All your arguments boil down to one theme - Arab sovereignty is ok, no matter how they treat their minorities, but Jewish sovereignty, even in a postage stamp (and the Partition of 47 wasn't much), why, that's illegitimate.

Neither Arabs nor Jews had sovereignty under the Turk, nor Druze, nor Maronite, nor lots of other people. Only Arabs deserved it aftewards. That's your position.
