Elroy, the issue was relocation. You implied that it's easier to relocate 6M Israelis than 500M Arabs. I'm implying that the number of Arabs who have to relocate is a lot smaller than 500M, and even then, no one is advocating their relocation. Not even Israel.


How many Arabs would need to be relocated before Israel doesn't border an Arab country which hates it?

If Israel stayed where it is, you have to move the populations of Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt as well as the Arabs in Israel, the WB and Gaza. That number would be roughly 111 million people. After you had relocated them, you would have to leave those countries empty for security purposes with checkpoints scattered around the perimeter.

It seems to me it would be much easier to move 4.8 Israeli Jews [1.2 million of the 6 million are either Muslims, Christians or Druze]than the Arabs in question.....but then that's me.
