Bolt -- it's not a dream. I think Lspeed pretty clearly stated the damages of such an operation. It will hurt Israel diplomatically and economically. You know, today I read an op-ed by Mohammed Dahlan, Arafat's head of security in Gaza. And I came to the conclusion, 'Bullsh!t!'.

Dahlan talked of living side by side, of bringing refugees back but not distorting Israel's demographic make up, which is of course impossible. Virtually all of those in refugee camps say they want to return to Israel, if it's an uncapped option, as the PA insists, it's the death of Israel, and the beginning of the slaughter of the Jewish population. Israel is right to resist, no country should be called on to commit national suicide.

Much easier to destroy something from within.

If Israel is a secular pseudo-state, due to the fact of its illegal bounds, plenty of room for Pakistanis there once an agreement has been settled with fair boundaries. and of course safe living in the territories when non-occupied, but Palestine. They should also be given world support to build an economy, as Jews would never support them as they are forbidden to give charity to any but their own. (They could at least refrain from taking what is not theirs, if they cannot be moved to give.) Then, no one will attack Israel if they are granted their due equal citizenship, proportional representation, equal government funding of areas that are theirs should they choose to remain in a properly defined Israel, property and financial rights, permitted Palestinian graveyards, for God's sake. Now, their representation in the Knesset is restricted. Yes, likely their numbers will increase, but less likely as much as you fear, for many would likely NOT prefer to live in Israel, once they have their own state with an economic base to support jobs. Of course you can legally restrict immigration once Israel has legal boundaries. The paranoia about them killing all Israelis likely is related to the fact that Israelis have so mistreated them, they know they deserve it and fear such retaliation. But, no doubt after 50 years of subjugation, Palestinians will be so glad to get their state, they will ignore this past and positively focus on what they can do for themselves, maybe not become materialists, but develop their own contributions to the world, perhaps out of this ugly experience they have survived. Are people happy to finally be treated fairly filled with revenge? Do the Palis who are held in bondage to only being allowed wages, not bank accounts, try to kill you? Maybe, there are a few criminals, but most are content with the mere bones thrown them, a way to earn a living. BTW, thanks for not trying to discredit me as a Muslim, therefore biased. I am watching CPAC, great, so I omitted paragraphs due to lack of concentration.
