So, Arab countries faced with reparations and lawsuits of Billions of dollars, are going to embraced their Jewish populations return home? Or are you going to call it no harm no foul, and Palestinians some of whom will want their property back are to be denied? Will you consider requiring Sharia Law to be lifted for the Middle East? How will you enshrine the permissive culture of Israel so that women in the new country have equal rights, and still allow Islam it's need to deny all rights to women? Women can Drive in Israel for example, but not under Sharia Law. Women wear bikinis in Israel, but not under Sharia law, how do you enshrine that in law so that the government cannot change it?

What a curious problem. A one-state solution says that, in a few years, non-Jews will outnumber Jews and Israel as a Jewish state will disappear. So the basic argument is one of ethnic and religious purity in what is quite a secular country otherwise. So here are the Israeli Jews arguing for separation while maintaining that they are the civilized and democratic ones in the area. South Africa's caucasian population was treated like dirt in the international community for this attitude yet it's considered the 'moral' side of the argument in this situation. What a curious thing. Now Pat Buchanan is arguing that Mexico wants to take over 7 southwestern states and, I guess, wants to build walls in order to preserve the whiteness of the US of A which is set to become all kinds of shades of beige in about 50 years or less. Is preserving the whiteness or the relative short history of european culture in the US a moral issue? Are those who back Israel's quest to stay Jewish also backing Pat's quest to keep the USA European and South Africa's quest to stay white as well? What are the rules exactly?
