Judaism is a religion. Israelis are a nationality, the overwhelming majority of whom are Jewish. There are lots of states throughout the world where one religion's adherents make up the majority of the population. Why can't there be a state where Judaism is the religion of the majority?I have said time and time again on this board and in this thread somewhere that a Palestinian state needs to be created to ensure Israel remains Jewish and democratic. Most Israelis agree with me. Sorry if you don't like it, but you have also proven time and time again that your views are far from mainstream and you lack a sound understanding of many of the arguments you try to make. As I asked you elsewhere in this thread, exactly what country is Israel occupying? Palestine has never been established as a country. Egypt makes no claim to Gaza and Jordan makes no claim to the West Bank. If you want to call them Disputed Territories, I'm quite OK with that, but Israel isn't occupying anything. Gazans have no desire to be Israeli citizens, so that isn't an option. Also, citizens of a country generally don't set out to destroy their own country. If you believe the right to travel is absolute, then you would demand that BOTH Egypt AND Israel lift their blockades on Gaza. You've put the onus on Israel. |
