the Land of Israel".

Israel could incorporate the vast majority of settlers and 'settled' territory into its borders without meaningfully altering the demographic balance between Jews and Arabs.

Israel has "more and more land". Sounds like the British Empire. From Barnea's words, one wouldn't guess a kid could bicycle across "Greater Israel' in 2 to 3 hours. Heaven forbid we Jews claim our sole tiny Homeland. Leftist idiots like Barnea want us to give it away to our mortal "Palestinian" foes, in the name of fictional "Palestine", a state that never existed, and which was concocted to steal our Jewish Homeland.

The question that should be asked is wether we let the world dictate the terms or wether we sit down and debate among ourselves what is the purpose of isolated settlements on one hand and settlement blocks on the other hand. If we either sincerely believe that all of Israel belongs to the Jewish people, we should settle all of it. If we believe that settlements are needed to fleshen out the state of Israel and provide it with a tactical and security advantage, we should build mainly in the settlement blocks, around Jerusalem, close to tel aviv and netanya and in the Jordan valley. If we think with our brains and not emotions and come to a conclusion that settlements are a handicap, still we should use the settelements as a bargaining chip. But to forsake and condemn the settlements like Barnea does is very poor judgment
