>arabs in the grocery stores, hotels, working as dentists, taxi drivers, etc. They all know Hebrew

Any idea of the general thoughts of these people toward their islamic terrorist brethren?

It would be useful in knowing what the Arabs are talking about to each other.

The Forward is proud of (and continues) its left-wing Socialist heritage ... put simply, it publishes a few worthwhile articles admixed with a larger number of leftist propaganda pieces and anti-Jewish trash “analyses”

While Arabic is part of the schooling in Israel, Israelis need to learn English and Hebrew, also now Russian, German, Chinese, Hindi....major world languages with heavy science and technology and medical and business elements.

Jewish children have a LOT on their plate to learn anyway. I’d say learning Arabic was so far on the bottom of the list that it wouldn’t even make it onto the list. It would be like teaching them to curse.

I got a better idea. Arabs learn Hebrew or leave.

My first thought.

No, and that is the problem. Let’s say 95% of them want friendly relations with the non-Muslims here and are content to live in the Jewish state (I made up that figure but it seems within the realm of possibility). That means 5% want to blow us up and are willing to die trying or sacrifice their children to do it.

If you worked in an office and someone had a candy dish, and she told you that there were 100 jelly beans of which five were laced with cyanide, would you take a chance and eat them?

In my opinion the answer is the one-state solution with vigorous police work.
