It runs against the grain of International thought and can assure the Israeli people enduring physical threat and deepening isolation. I do not delude myself about the depth of hatred Israel faces from its neighbors. This may never go away, but it must be intelligently managed. Pissing off the entire planet does not provide the cover Israel may need in the event of future conflicts.

World history teaches us there is nothing sacred about international borders. They are the consequence of wars and treaties. Nation-states have come and gone and will continue to do so. Annexation, as put forward by Mr Misgav, therefore has historical precedent. The question, as stated by Eric, is what do you do with the people living in the annexed territory? Ethnic cleansing? South Africa- style apartheid? Or the of granting full citizenship? For a country which claims to be a civilised, liberal, democratic state the answer is obvious, even though it may change the character of that country.

Enough with the Jordan is Palestine theatrics. The show has NO audience. The more you repeat your lies the more you make fools of yourselves.

Try to use "Germans" instead of "Jews" and any place in Eastern Europe instead of West Bank. Do you see the same as rest of the World?

Annex "Judea" and "Samaria," apply Israeli law, and watch the Knesset go from 10 percent Palestinian to 50 percent. Great plan!

Contary to the article, when Jordan annexed the West Bank in April 1950, the annexation was recognised as legal by just two countries - Pakistan and the United Kingdom.

His Excellency Abu Mazem gives the answer to the question.. He explains, that his people, sucked in from around the yishuv, in search of jobs, rejected by their bretherin , urgently need to find their own identity. Therefore he pleads, through a senior spokesman, that he does not want his people to live among Jews. He remembers no doubt how Arabs expelled a million Jews from Arab lands in 1948-51. more than the 700000 of arab fellaheen that were scared by their own folk to leave Israel. Well, Abu Mazen can welcome his flocks when they seperate themselves from the Jews and cross to their promised land across the Jordan river.

That is how the establishment of the state of Israel played out. Anexation? Arabs living in Judea and Samaria are actually Israeli's and have always been. Judea and Samaria are the heartland of ancient Israel. That's the ignored historical fact. There is no "ancient Palestinian" arceological evidence from these areas of ever having occupied by an 'ancient Palestinian people'. There IS plenty of arceological evidence of JEWISH occupation of these areas. But, its not PC to talk about those facts.

Good to see you back, with your ever increasingly ridiculous statements.

Abbas declared that no Jews will be allowed in the "Palestinian State". What's good for the goose.....

Too bad ME history is ignored by leftists !

"Of course he provides no evidence of this ludicrous claim, because none could be found. I have studied international law." Your level in "international laws" is C- !

All Christians, Druze, Samaritans and Bedouins as well as Muslims whose fathers lived in Israel before 1920 become citizens with full rights. All Muslim Arabs whose fathers came to Israel since 1920 are exchanged 1 for 1, with Christians from Lebanon, Syria and Iraq who want to come..

Palestinian (via mother , queen rania, a palestinian, and wife of King Abdullah) crown prince- HUSSEIN II. When Abdullah dies or "retires" Hussein II will be designated king. JORDAN ISSSSS PALESTINE

Quick answer: Arabs of Judea become citizens of Jordan (get passport & citizenship of Jordan- just like Abbas and the 4+ million Palestinians in Jordan today) and also get residency status in Israel (no vote for knesset, no required military duty, but maintain any proven ownership and business).

same time frame as Jews Returning to Judea and the rest of Israel. Thats why Mohammed in your Koran also urges the Jews to return to Israel. Are you denying the Koran Yousef?

here. As recently as the Palestine Mandate, Jordan was 78% of the land of the Palestine Mandate- whereas Israel was 22%. FACT. Jordans crown prince is Palestinian via his palestinina mother, queen Rania. Thus Jordans next king will be Palestinian. FACT Jordan is Palestine. Oh, and lets not ignore that Jordans population is 80% Palestinian today. FACT It is the perfect storm....and makes perfect sense. Jordan is Palestine

Our ancestors were in the land of Israel 24 centuries before Mohammed was alive, 24 centuries before the Arab occupation and subjugation of native peoples if Israel, levant, and north africa, and 39 centuries before the majority of todays Arabs illegally entered Israel looking for work from the burgeoning Jewish infrastructure being rapidly built between 1880-1948. If you want to check the Jews' connection to the land of Israel, open a book, any book. Learn some history- heck even open your Koran. Mohammed acknowledges Israel as the Jews' land, so why dont you?

Injustice has gone for so long with a cover from the hypocrite west.

Hashem asked all the nations if they would except the Torah that included the Arabs but no one wanted it except the Jews and with the Torah came the Land of Israel. Now after thousands of years they want to take the land that was given to the Jews by G-d which will be a big mistake as G-d will destroy the nations who try to destroy Israel.

Before there was a State Of Israel Jews were told to go back to there country, being Israel which was then impossible as we were not allowed to live in our own country that was given to us by G-d. But this is not so for the Palestinians as they do have a country, Jordan which they were thrown out from, its time for them to return to their rightfull country Jordan. Ynet this was a good article for a change.

All previous Kings of Jordan said it themselves that ''JORDAN is PALESTINE''. Israel has to face reality and use the only thing that Arabs understand ''POWER"". Take military control of GAZA and present day JORDAN. Annex the West Bank. Then negotiate the creation of Palestine in present day Jordan. The hell with world opinion as it is and will always be against Israel.
