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

I don't think said hatred is justified, nor is giving into it. Iran doesn't border Israel, nor does Indonesia, yet you hear the leaders of both those nations making anti-Semitic remarks.


I don't exactly know the justification of the hatred either, but I think (a wild gander) its akin to Utah forcibly seceding from the US and becoming a Mormon homeland theocracy. Maine doesn't border Utah, but would send its kids to prevent the secession and keep Utah in the good old USA.

I don't think there is anything wrong with giving in if everyone involved benefits. Israelis can live happily and successfully in the US, and Arabs can deal with their own problems without what they consider outsiders in their midst, and the whole planet can save a lot of wasted money and have less war. Just because you don't see one side's justification doesn't mean the status quo is better than a proposed solution.

How many times does it have to be said.......Israel is sitting on Arab land. Its not unlike an unwanted guest at a dinner party. I am sure you understand.
