Townhall.com makes a point that needs to be considered.
| Only a radical would argue that Israel should not have such Arab citizens. And yet what passes for the moderate view holds that a future Palestinian state must be Judenrein – ethnically cleansed of Jews. Indeed, even “moderate” Jordan has a constitutional provision specifically prohibiting Jews from becoming citizens. |
For me the battle is on the right of return, Jerusalem, the major settlement blocs, and scurity. The right of Jews to live in Palestine is something we will have to deal with in the future. In the meantime we are forced to accept the situation as it is. We know what would happen to the Jewish residents of Gaza if we left them there and just pulled the IDF out.
