or more Arabic speaking nations far away from Israel as the only way to delay Armageddon. Surely, the gentile nations of the world would want to stay in power a while longer since Armageddon spells the end of Gentile world rule.

Alot of Lapid voters were traditional Labor voters but didn't trust Shelly. Here comes Lapid promising all things to all people, famous, good looks, no past political record to criticise. Then he had his first budget no huge amounts spent on the social projects which the left had expected. For a long time for the sake of his alliance with Bennet he was keeping a low profile on the peace process focussing on populist issues like hared. Now Labor have got rid of Shelly and have an unknown, Herzog rather than recycled the same old faces. The Lapid fad has worn off and now he is just seen as another politician and in the polls his support has halved so he needs an image makeover for the left.

On the one side, when Palestinians even express their desire to return to their homeland after 65 years in exile it is called "unnatural". When Jews, fake or otherwise, immigrate to this land without even speaking Arabic or Hebrew it is called legitimate Zionist Enterprise and immigration. The racism is disgusting.

You can like the man or not, you can agree with his ideas or not... but, what I like the most in him: from time to time Lapid throws with a big smile a stick into the chicken coop. Continue, Yair.

consider themselves Palestinians??

I had too less sleep...

This is defeatism and cowardice. The US isn't going to ban travel! As for the EU, Israel buys 20 billion from THEM, but they only buy 14 billion from Israel. They don't want a trade war, because they will lose more than Israel. Also, economic damages can be taken from the PA, which gets 1 billion in welfare, and it can be taken from the 1 billion per year that Israel collects as taxes. Grow a pair.

He goes around the world telling people they must fight racism but is quite happy to say he will get rid of the Palestinians because they are not Jewish.

...give the impression that Israel has some sort of legitimacy in its dealings with Palestinians.

The way to "get rid of Palestinians" is to send them to their real home: Jordan. Not to give them our sole tiny Homeland. Get rid of Lapid. He is a cowardly mental midget who is a third rate entertainer. Nothing more.

Fear based decisions are ALWAYS bad. There is never an exception. This partly explains why leftists are always wrong on every major issue. Their only motivation is fear. Like yours. Leftists also tend to be shortchanged in the brains department.

are just talking w/o any substance and results. Palis in or out is another issue. First get Jordan to adapt WB and Egypt to adapt Gaza. That is what BB needs to tell the world. Settlers will not matter once these two matters are set. That is if we are interested in finishing the conflict form our side. Arabs may not like it but the world needs to know this.

Israelis have a choice to make and it needs to be made soon. Either one democratic state with equal rights and opportunity for every race, creed, colour, tribal affiliation, ethnicity, sexual orientation, political party or opinion. OR A Palestinian state comprised of the entire West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem. Get it through your head Sarah. There will be no ethnic cleanings of Palestinians from Palestine. Anyone who believes this is the answer is fooling themselves. It would be the first step in the disolution of the modern state of Israel.

But slightly stronger. First rocket - 5 shells Second rocket - 25 shells Third rocket - 125 shells and so on.

That's truly hilarious, the word legitimacy being uttered by an AUSTRALIAN! Now I've heard it all...

Yes, good to see you understand what Lapid is saying. In simple English, Israel is Jewish land. No question about it.

he is not a seriouse man

....to be located in Australia. Jumping to conclusions is a bad habit.

Israel does not have to opt for either of your ridiculous choices. Israel is the victor. Israel has every right to impose her will on the defeated "Palestinian" poseurs. Just as the WW II Allies imposed their will on Germany. Israel's best choice is simply to repatriate them to their real home: Jordan. Many of them would not be unhappy with it.
