Moral considerations and solutions are touching but irrelevant. You have people on both sides who will kill or die, notwithstanding universal consistent moral considerations. The answer to the moral quandry is simple: all the Jews should pick up and move to Nebraska. The real problem is political: how to achieve best possible solution.

You're a raging idealist!

So, it's perfectly fine to eliminate 75% of the Palestinian population (1948), and it's perfectly fine for every Jew in the world to have the right to "return" to Palestine, but the inhabitants of Palestine can go fuck themselves because otherwise they are denying the jews their state? A state won on the coattails of the British empire and maintained through support of the U.S. empire? Self-determination my ass!

Who decided that the right of jews to their own state is the highest moral imperative?
