If the population of Israel and the population of each country that borders Israel voted on whether or not Israel should exist, the "no" vote is going to win by about 20 to 1. That's what you would call a democratic landslide mandate from the people.

And if the rest of the nations on the planet voted to confiscate all oil resources from the hands of Muslim fanatics, that would be a landslide referendum as well...

Maybe we should initiate a series of Palestinian-Israeli "smokers".. Boxing matches where their chosen champions can beat the living daylights out of one another once a week, and both sides can find common ground in the betting parlors.

"How about the fact that 90% of the population of the neighboring countries don't want you there? That's a pretty big reason."

If 90% of the pop of a neighbor doesnt want another country there, we should just do what now??? committ suicide.
