The problem is that Israel was a brain child of social engineering
(mostly left) of the time which wanted us to believe that it is possible
to disregard history and create new social order ex nihilo. As a
result, Israel have a serious design flaw - it is an ethnic/religious
state instead of a federal, muliti-ethnic and secular entity. In the
latter case, we would not have the problem of the West Bank and gaza
strip enclaves that are de facto Palestinian reservations breedeing
poverty and dissent.
